A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use the two model conversations and phrase lists on the learner page. The final dialogue prompts are open-ended, with no fixed answer key.

  1. Read the shared-flat exchange and sort savings, company, kitchen access and noise.
  2. Compare online Spanish lessons with social contact and the suggested speaking partner.
  3. Use a final prompt with two phrases to explain a preference and one drawback.

Support and extension

Supply cost/time/company notes. Extend by showing why the same feature may benefit one learner but not another.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
