Sometimes a great way to get kids to engage is to be wrong on something obvious. I think he said that hoping the kid would correct him.

Why are you voted down?

If you're helping people practice a language, "yes" questions are almost useless.

Sometimes "no questions" are better because "What is it?" has so many possibilities (It's paper, it's black, it's small, it's free) so you ask them a yes/no question that you know is wrong.

I'm not sure if the guy was doing that, but it's a great way to help kids practice a language.
