How can we know what we think until we see what we say? Articulating your thoughts is a way of clarifying them, both to others and to yourself. This English conversation textbook is divided into four parts: Discussion, Presentation, Debate, and Emotion. Each part is composed of three chapters. The textbook briefly touches on topics such as dangerous sports, foreign countries, epistemology, and Shakespeare. The overall goal is that students learn how to think and express their thoughts more clearly. Critical thinking is not only a useful life skill, but it's also engaging. To the extent that students use their brains, they will learn a great deal and simultaneously enjoy the experience.
