The 30 advice idioms and sayings in this activity pack give your adult ESL students the language they need to give and listen to advice. The variety of worksheet and activity types ensures there’s something for everyone in your class. Advice idioms are the perfect addition to your class so that your students don’t put all their eggs into one vocabulary basket. Plus, idioms are the kind of vocabulary adults crave.

With this, your students will learn 30 idioms and expressions that they might hear or want to use. They’ll be practicing and reviewing all 30 with activities that make the terms memorable. These pages will be the ones that go home with them, not get tossed in the trash on their way out at the end of class.

 Idioms are the kind of everyday English that fluent speakers use without thinking twice but present a roadblock to people learning English. That’s why your students need to understand that saving your breath is not the same as holding it and that letting the dust settle isn’t what you do just before vacuuming. Once they get that, they can start having fun making figurative language part of their daily communication.
