When teaching tags, the temptation is to concentrate on getting the correct auxiliary.
Two other points are worth remembering:
1. Why tags are used in conversation - to facilitate turn-taking.
2. Tags are not questions - they need a response, which will give more information
to enable the conversation to develop further:
You've been to Malta before, haven't you?
> Yes, but it was years ago.
Really, when was that?
