Talk about your travel experiences with this engaging B2 ESL grammar and speaking lesson.

Built around travel experiences and city breaks, this lesson helps students practise the Past Simple and Present Perfect in a meaningful, communicative context. Students explore the difference between the two tenses before using them to ask and answer questions about travel experiences and share a memorable trip or city break.

Students begin with a travel-themed “Find someone who…” activity, using the target tenses to talk about different travel experiences. They then read about the uses of the Past Simple and Present Perfect and identify the tenses in the questions. Next, students build their own questions using both tenses, moving from general travel experiences to specific details. The lesson finishes with a speaking task in which students describe a memorable trip or city break using both tenses.

In this lesson, students will:

• Talk about travel experiences

• Review and practise the Past Simple and Present Perfect

• Identify when to use each tense in a travel context

• Form questions using the Past Simple and Present Perfect

• Ask and answer questions about travel experiences

Perfect for B2 adult and teenage learners, this ready-to-teach bite-sized lesson requires minimal preparation and combines grammar and communicative speaking around a practical and engaging travel theme.
