TELESHOPPING ADVERT CREATION IN THE CLASSROOM

Using teleshopping in an oral English classroom is an engaging way to practice persuasive language, spontaneous speaking, and real-life functional communication.

Teleshopping is buying products from home while watching them on television.

Here is a quick summary:

• What it is: TV shows where presenters show products and viewers buy them by phone or online.

• The Style: Very energetic and fast. The hosts show a common problem and present the item as the best solution. They often say "Buy now before time runs out!" to make you order quickly.

• Target Audience: Mostly older adults, stay-at-home parents, and people watching TV late at night or during the day.
