Preparing for the conversation • After each text: • Questions (vragen) • Speaking (spreken) • Speaking about the text
Some good advice • Do not fill in the gaps in the book or write translations in the text • Do not learn words from a list, but in context. • Understanding is not enough: have attention for form: put the text under the microscope! • Use all senses simultaneously: read + listen + speak • Study actively: USE the words, make your own sentences • Don’t be afraid to speak or to make mistakes
