ONE POINT LESSON: Improving Conversation Skills
One of the best ways to sound more like a native English speaker is to expand your answers and make longer sentences.
For example, if someone asks you: "Have you ever been to America?"
Remember:
-
A nswer (the question)
-
A dd (some extra information)
-
A sk (a question in return)
For example:
Yes,
-
I went to California on vacation last year. It was fantastic!
-
How about you, have you ever been there?
Or:
No,
- But I have a friend who lives in New York.
- Are you from America?
By using the "Answer, Add, Ask" technique, your conversations will sound much more natural.
