    It’s difficult to single out some tips because all are very important, but I would put some ephasis on:
    – appropriate methodology
    – personalise topics with their lives
    – localise topics so they will as a part of it
    – choose a good and motivating text
    – and always rememeber it’s a language lesson!
    As I have alrady said, I would put my tip number 10: don’t overload students with environmnet-based topics (still not sure when it is “too much”).
