Do you think you have problems with English pronunciation? If you watch the video, I don't think you ever say this again and he doesn't give up! Poor teacher...

Tips to improve your presentations

1.    Choose a topic you like. You will enjoy the information seeking process and also speaking about it.

2.    Make short sentences and using the vocabulary we learnt in class, do not try to use vocabulary and expressions that you don't know how to use, because this usually leads to mistakes and difficulty in remembering them.

3.    Basic grammar structure you need to follow:

Subject + verb + other complements.

Structures that can help you with your presentation: YOU SHOULD, YOU MUST, YOU CAN, YOU SHOULDN'T, YOU MUSTN'T, YOU CAN'T  +  INFINITIVE OF THE VERB YOU NEED 

Ex:  You should click on the icon on the left to download the program.

4.    Try to introduce the topic briefly while showing the title and first page of your powerpoint or other type of visual material you are using.

5.    Use visual material that helps you present the topic, usually photographs and/or pictures are fine, but you can also add some video. Do not write any sentences on the material (powerpoint, etc), just a few words. If you write sentences, do not read them and you will need to say more things or say them in a different way from what is written.

6.    Be ready to answer any questions the teacher or your colleagues may ask you. Study the vocabulary related to the topic you chose very well, so that you can understand the questions other people ask you.

Is there anything left you would like to ask? Any doubts?

A comparison of two websites

Find two websites to compare, one that you like very much and another one that you don't like.

Make as many comparisons as you can and mention the different characteristics and components of each website.

USE COMPARATIVE AND SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES AND AS MUCH SPECIFIC VOCABULARY AS YOU CAN.

You have to post your comparison in your blogs with the link to the websites, and then, when it is corrected, you'll have to make a presentation in class comparing the two websites. You will only have the visual help of the websites, no reading!!
