Let's practice.

How? in pairs

Time 5 mins

More tips for your test:

Weet het verschil tussen formeel & informeel taalgebruik:

• geen straattaal/slang !  
• beleefd zijn: “Can you repeat that PLEASE?”
• oogcontact houden
• PAS LSD TOE! (luisteren, samenvatten, doorvragen) : 
•   TIP!   Wanneer je goed naar de vragen luistert of de opmerkingen, kun je zelf meteen onderdelen daarvan gebruiken door samen te vatten wat de ander vertelde en doorvragen. Dat scheelt weer woorden zoeken!

Voorbeeld:

Spreker: “Well, I didn't pay attention in English class a lot, so I could do with a few more lessons.”

Jij: “ You're saying you didn't pay attention in English class. Why didn't you (pay attention) ?”

Voorbeeld:

Spreker: “Well, I didn't pay attention in English class a lot, so I could do with a few more lessons.”

Jij: “ You're saying you didn't pay attention in English class. Why didn't you (pay attention) ?”
