How would you explain the use of fillers, slang, false starts (you know, you see) if the conversation contains such elements?

Teaching both standard and slang ways are necessary.

Students are facing many problems with their daily life. Students

should notice the popular slangs by the native speaker and explore

the meaning of words. During classroom period, a teacher should

explain some slangs to avoid students are not understanding. There

are two options for teachings slang for students. Firstly, teacher

knowledge. Secondly, using some sources such as books, websites,

or using technology in the classroom.
