Friendship is a universal theme even if the friendship bracelet fad comes and goes. Your adult ESL students may have already heard about a partner in crime and assumed a judge and a courtroom were involved, but do frenemies get on like a house on fire? And if so, is that a good thing?

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 hitting it off isn’t assault and standing the test of time isn’t something they have to study for. Once they get that, they can start having fun making figurative language part of their daily communication.
