How to use www.soziety.com
Hi there!
In this entry I tell you about the website www.soziety.com, where you can practise your oral skills from home and completely for free!
The website works as follows: you select your mother-tongue, the language you want to practise and your current level; the website will then look for your perfect matches. Normally, you'll talk to English speakers who want to learn Spanish: that way, you do each other a mutual favour. And, by all means, you can practise other languages too!
When registering, you can chose your preferred mode to talk: by phone, skype or google voice.
Go to the website and click on "Apply for an invitation". You will be re-directed to this page where you have to include your details:
Once you fill everything in, you'll be sent an invitation and you'll be able to access the platform.

Oral presentations: some words of advice
Hi all!
As you know, next week we start with your oral presentations (5 minutes maximum). Remember to choose a topic you feel comfortable with and make it as interesting as possible for your classmates!
I know speaking in public is difficult, especially if it's not in Spanish. But, hey, it's the first presentation we do and everybody's going to feel nervous, everybody, so don't think you're the only one having a hard time. Try to relax as much as possible and enjoy your presentation. I'm sure you've devoted a lot of time to it, so don't let nerves spoil it: feel enthusiastic about your work and show us!
Here you have a presentation I've prepared for you. I hope it helps you out a little bit.
(To see the presentation better, click on play, then "more" and then "full screen". Advance the presentation by clicking on the arrow).
