This paper reports on conversation lessons that do not use a textbook. Usually, conversation lessons generally use a textbook and adopt methods such as pair work, group work, speeches, and roleplaying, but the author instead conducts lessons all in Japanese without using a textbook. The lessons are developed by deciding on an omnibus topic for each session. However, the topics consist mainly of items that often appear in the JLPT, such as “sequential order,” “schedules,” “weather forecasts,” and “street directions.” Since the lessons are also in preparation for the JLPT, consistency has not been ensured between sessions. With this background, this paper particularly emphasizes the “imaginary conversations” method. In this method, students create imaginary plans, such as “travel plans” or “moving plans,” and hold discussions to determine the date, schedule, and other details together. The advantages of this method are that students can use all their previously learned basic grammar skills and it gives them equal opportunities to speak.
