SPEAKING LANGUAGE: SPANISH
You need to listen to your partner’s questions and answer them. Try to avoid short answers and do not be afraid to try new verbs and constructions. If you cannot understand something just ask your partner to speak slower (¿Por favor, podrías hablar más despacio?) or to repeat the question (¿Por favor, podrías repetir la pregunta?).
You can start now; enjoy your conversation!
