Independent Speaking Task #3

This is an independent speaking task from the TOEFL speaking exam.

Question:
What is your favorite place to study? 
Describe it and explain why you like studying there.
Include details and examples in your explanation.


This is a great question! I think about this question all the time. I'm always looking for good, quiet comfortable places to study or especially where me and others can meet and study together. 

Where are your favorite places to study? 

Let's learn (review) some vocabulary to help us out-

At a:
Coffee shop
Library
Home
Park
Restaurant 

In a:
Car
train
museum 

or in a meeting.


Why?
Describing it can be difficult, always say because...

Adjectives that help:
It's-
quiet
peaceful
private
convenient

Prepositional phrases :
it's-
near my house
far from distraction
on my way to school
across the street

Put it all together into a comprehensive sentence with 'I like ...'

Example
I like studying at a coffee shop because it's peaceful and I also like coffee.

Put your answer on Voice Thread



That's your homework. 
Happy learning!
