and fantastic vocabulary. I have to feel like I can see, smell, taste or experince it as you did at that time.
- practice your story and pay particular attention to your pronunciation
of the past tense verbs! Do not sound like a robot! I don't mind if you don't say everything that you prepared
on the sheet! You are allowed to make errors!
- within the time limit because I don't have extra time.
