ESL Conversation Topic — Crime

Written by Robert Vance on May 27, 2008 – 11:37 pm

Level: Intermediate - Advanced

 Talking about crime is always an interesting ESL topic because you can go many different ways with the discussion.

Warmup: Print off some information about the 5 most dangerous cities in your home country. Go through the cities and then ask your students to tell you what the 5 most dangerous cities in China are.

Discussion:

  • Why is crime higher in some parts of the country than others?
  • Have you ever had a crime committed against you? If so, what happened?
  • Is the city that you live in dangerous? Why or why not?
  • How can you take steps to protect yourself from criminals?
  • Why kind of crime do you fear the most? Why?
  • Do you think the police do a good job of preventing crime in your city? Why or why not? 
  • It is often said that women who walk around at night by themselves are more likely to be victims than men. Why do you think this is the case?
