Results
The 7ESL Discussion Question Generator turns any topic into a full set of speaking-class questions in seconds. Type a topic - Climate Change, Artificial Intelligence, travel, your coursebook unit - choose a level and a focus, and it writes open-ended questions grouped into stages that build up: a gentle warm-up, a deeper discussion, and a debate or opinion round. Each set comes with a short list of useful vocabulary so learners have the words they need to answer well. It is part of the 7ESL AI teacher suite, available with a Pro account.
How to use it
Enter your topic, pick the CEFR level and the focus - General conversation, IELTS Speaking practice, or Critical thinking - and choose how many questions you want. The questions appear grouped by stage; print them as a clean worksheet or copy them into your slides. Because every question is open-ended, they are ready for pair work, small groups or whole-class discussion.
