2021-06-28 27 min

Description & Show Notes

I often hear that learners want to speak spontaneously in conversations. What does that actually mean? And why do you even want to do that?
 
Why would you put pressure on yourself to just go into English conversations and speak spontaneously?
 
So today I will talk about 5 exercises to prepare for these situations. I don't mean crammig vocabulary or grammar, or "phrases for conversational English". I will talk about practical things you can do to go into conversations with a more helpful mindset, a clear idea of the purpose of the conversation, a good sense of what you might want to talk about and a voice that's ready to talk. Because conversation is not only about the words. It's also about how you think about the situation and how you feel in your body.
 
This episode is a blogcast episode - it is an English version of my blogpost on the same topic. The blogpost is in German. You can read it here.
