Hi Zee Zee- Thanks for your post to the forum. With adults students especially, I try to draw on all their life experiences. Try to chat individually with your students. Ask questions about their lives, remember what they said (I actually write down some notes after these chats). Then when appropriate draw them into the discussion by mentioning some of the things you know about them ( nothing private of course!) Things like, "John, you worked for IBM, what sort of management structure did they have?" Best wishes - Susan
