Tip 1

When you don't know a word/ can't remember what it's called, describe it!

You can say something about;

- the size/colour (sun: it is very big/hot/yellow)

- what it is used for/who uses it (shopping bag: you use it to put your groceries in)

- where you can find it (beamer: we use it in the classroom to watch videos)

- compare it to something else (disgust: the feeling when you have to eat something you really don't like)

These chunks might help:

Chunks can be used to describe  things that you don't know the name of

Tip 2 NEVER speak Dutch

It is better to make a mistake when speaking English, than to start talking Dutch during your oral exam.
When you keep speaking English, we know you are trying your hardest.
