    In this video I explain 5 fun activities for ESL teacher's online English classes using Zoom's great feature, Breakout Rooms. I explain how to create Breakout Rooms in Zoom, how to use Breakout Rooms in Zoom and other Zoom tips and tricks. Remember that these ideas can work for Google Meet and Microsoft Teams or any video conferencing software that supports Breakout Rooms.
    All these ideas will get your students speaking English and having fun at the same time. The dynamic is the same for all classes as you move students from one Breakout room to another. The activity always ends with bringing the students back to the main room to discuss feedback and opinions.
    The ideas include the use of the first conditional for promises and predictions, future tenses, paraphrasing and describing meanings of words.

    I like these ideas, especially the fortune-teller one! It would be a good addition to a fun tarot card activity. Good video, but would have preferred no background music, as I am trying to focus on your spoken directions. It's a bit too distracting. Thank you!

      Hey thanks for the comment, hope you can use the activity in your class. I'll make a note about the background music.

    I'll try these with my students. I subscribed immediately. And indeed, I lose students everytime I start with the breakout rooms. Lol

      If you ask those students with poor internet connections to turn off their webcams then it can help.

    Subbed. Great practical info with the switching one student per group. Do you monitor each breakout room as they go? Or let them operate without guidance?

      I enter each breakout room in turn to monitor, particularly the weaker students. There are times when I let the students operate without me. Sometimes it helps that the teacher is absent.

    What would you ask a fortune teller if you had the chance?
