PRACTICE ON ELEVATOR SPEECH

Next Monday 31st. we will be practising your elevator speech.


For this reason, it's important that you practice during the weekend so you are ready to present it on Monday.


You must be careful about timing because it has to be nearly 3 minutes, around 2:45, let's say not less than 2:30 minutes as mínimum.


You may use a dictionary so as to check pronunciation:

spaeker: bocina


For the oral exam II that will take place on Thursday, November 3rd., you MUST NOT read! That same day you need to bring the following documents:
BROCHURE, organize it properly and make it attractive with images and considering how important color and nice organization are.
BUSINESS CARD
Your JOB PROFILE


I kindly remind you to focus on the target language. Otherwise, you'll miss points in the oral examination.


Thank you. Have a nice day.
