Warm-up before speaking
Five minutes in a real situation before the lesson starts, so nobody has to warm up on your time.
Bring real conversations into your lessons and homework without inventing a new role-play every week. Sparrway gives your learners someone to talk to, and gives you the result of that conversation.
The task
Reading, grammar and vocabulary have materials. Speaking usually has a page in the coursebook and whatever you invent on the way to class.
A good speaking task needs a situation, a partner who reacts, and a way to see who managed what. Building all three by hand, every week, is the part that does not scale.
That is the gap Sparrway closes, without asking you to change your programme.
What you need
Situations your learners will actually meet

What gets in the way
Writing a new role-play for every topic
Learners who freeze once the script is gone
No record of who managed what
The answer
The situation, the partner and the follow-up: everything a speaking activity usually costs you is already in place.
What you get out of the box
Use cases
Five minutes in a real situation before the lesson starts, so nobody has to warm up on your time.
One link, one scenario, one clear task. You see who completed it and where the conversation broke.
Situations built around the tasks of a speaking exam, with the pressure of a partner who answers back.
The same situation at two levels, so one group can work on one topic without splitting in half.
