- Give 30–60 seconds to think before speaking if needed.
- Encourage the student to expand their answers with reasons, examples, or short stories.
- Ask follow-up questions to keep the conversation going (e.g. Why? What happened next? How would you feel? What would you do?).
- Focus on fluency, creativity, and natural communication rather than correcting mistakes at this stage.
