What this module changes
This module focuses on Agree, disagree and argue your point. You begin by learning to states an opinion in the four-part shape inside 60 seconds. The final lesson asks you to passes a 10-item quiz; records for and against one topic, 90 seconds each without copying the original model.
Level: B2. There are 6 connected lessons. Complete them in order if the topic is new, or use the list to locate one specific gap.
The lesson map
| Lesson | Focus | Observable outcome | Typical time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Claim, reason, example: the shape of an opinion | States an opinion in the four-part shape inside 60 seconds | 19 min |
| 2 | Although, despite, however: conceding a point | Concedes before countering, with correct structures for all three words | 20 min |
| 3 | Disagreeing without a fight | Disagrees in three softness grades and picks the right one for the listener | 18 min |
| 4 | Hedging: probably, tends to, in my experience | Calibrates claim strength with 10 hedging devices | 19 min |
| 5 | Ninety seconds, cold | Answers three unseen opinion prompts, 90 seconds each, three takes, recorded | 20 min |
| 6 | Checkpoint: argue both sides | Passes a 10-item quiz; records for and against one topic, 90 seconds each | 18 min |
What useful practice looks like
- Claim, reason, example: the shape of an opinion: States an opinion in the four-part shape inside 60 seconds.
- Although, despite, however: conceding a point: Concedes before countering, with correct structures for all three words.
- Disagreeing without a fight: Disagrees in three softness grades and picks the right one for the listener.
Use true information where possible. A sentence about your own routine, work or plans is easier to remember than a sentence copied from a model.
A practical study routine
- Read the lesson objective before the explanation.
- Say the model aloud once, then change at least two details.
- Complete the check without opening the answer first.
- Record or write the mission on your own device.
- At the checkpoint, name one error you corrected and one skill that still needs practice.
How the lessons work together
Agree, disagree and argue your point is a sequence, not a folder of unrelated pages. Claim, reason, example: the shape of an opinion establishes the first usable move. Later lessons add control, choice and time pressure. Checkpoint: argue both sides asks you to combine the module without copying an answer.
- Claim, reason, example: the shape of an opinion: States an opinion in the four-part shape inside 60 seconds

- Hedging: probably, tends to, in my experience: Calibrates claim strength with 10 hedging devices
Keep one piece of evidence from the first lesson and improve the same piece at the checkpoint. That comparison shows more than a quiz score because it records what changed in your own language.
Transfer the skill to a new situation
After the checkpoint, change the audience or purpose. A speaking answer can become a short written message. A formal response can be rewritten for a teammate. A story can be shortened for a meeting update. Keep the main meaning while changing the delivery.
When a result is weak, return to the lesson whose outcome describes the missing skill. Do not restart the full course unless several earlier foundations are missing.

How to know you are ready to continue
Do not judge readiness by reading speed. You are ready when you can complete the checkpoint task with a clear message, understandable language and no copied answer. A small number of errors is normal at B2; errors should not hide your meaning.
If the checkpoint is difficult, repeat the lesson whose outcome matches the problem. That is faster than restarting the whole module.
