TIPS TO PREPARE THE ORAL EXAM
As I promised, here you have some ideas to improve your oral skills before the exams.
I hope you find them useful.
ORAL SKILL
- Try to listen to some English everyday (music, news, films, radio, etc.); pay attention to the pronunciation and try to imitate some parts of the texts. Some songs are fantastic!
- Prepare the topics you have. Don’t attempt to memorize everything because the moment you forget a word, then you’ll get stuck. Repeat the speech many times, making changes and trying to improve what you didn’t do well the previous time. If you know very well what you’re talking about, you won’t have any problem to improvise in case it’s necessary.
- Prepare some new vocabulary for each topic and use some of the new structures you studied this course. It will be a positive!
- Record your speech and listen to it later. Make sure you spot the mistakes and write them down. Next time you record it, pay special attention to these mistakes.
- Check the pronunciation of the words you don’t know. Don’t trust your logics. Remember that pronunciation rules in English have nothing to do with the Spanish ones.
- If you have a very strong Spanish accent, try to imitate Spanish people mocking English accent. It works!
- Speak slowly and paying attention not only to the right pronunciation but also to the accuracy: speak correctly.
