SHORT CONVERSATIONS

Hi! Now that we have started with a new project here you are some advice and useful links to help you take the most out of it.

You are going to perform a short conversation in English. Remember that the idea is not just learning by heart a group of words with no meaning. You should sound real. For that reason it is important that you work on the characters very carefully, as well as the pronunciation and intonation.

Once you have worked on the meaning, setting and characters, you will have to check the pronunciation. How? Go to the web address on the top of your scripts or clik on the conversation you are working on, here:

Anyway, everytime you start a new project, it is important to remember that there are certain rules to be followed.
