C1 – Neuroscience of Giving

Here’s a video-based speaking lesson exploring the topics of charity, money, donations, and the psychological benefits of giving. The lesson follows our standard structure, featuring speaking activities, vocabulary practice, discussion questions, and video viewing. While the lesson can be adapted for B2 level students by providing preview words, it’s particularly suited for adult C1 learners who are already familiar with the concepts of donating and giving, enabling them to share personal experiences.
