Oral exam skills and strategies.

Oral exam strategies:

1.  Use 'if' to open and extend your conversations.

2. Use 'might be' to open and extend your conversations.

3. Use 'personally, i feel/think' to open and extend your conversations.

There is a structure to the oral exam.

1. Setting first.
2. Focus 1
3. Focus 2
4. Focus 3
5. Reflection/conclusion.

Use opening sentences to start your conversations for each step.

Then describe and elaborate using 'if', 'i feel/think' , 'might be'.

These phrases will help you when you are stuck with nothing to say.

They can also be applied in your conversation section.

Conversation section

Remember, one focus with two or three different personal experiences.

Eg. Airport -- My grandfather and me.
      Airport -- My trip to Bangkok
     Airport -- My learning journey with my class.,

So you have to use your own personal experience or make them up if you do not have it.
