SPEAKING ENGINE

Dialogue Performance

Your final speaking challenge: perform the complete conversation from memory, without an instructor's cues or model answers. Play both characters, one role at a time.

Final speaking practice · Unit 03

Spanish Before Class

CIRA practice scene: it is Tuesday morning in Sol y Mar. Susan and Don Antonio talk before her Spanish class. Build the scene with familiar language, then use it in the conversation.

First practise Narrative and Guided Dialog. Here, there are no prompts, model playback, recording or Compare.

1 · Narrative — read the scene

Read the Spanish narrative before practising. It plays automatically once before the first dialogue, then repeats are dialogue-only. You can listen again whenever you like.

Es martes y son las nueve de la mañana. Susan está en Sol y Mar con Don Antonio. Susan es inglesa, de Manchester, y vive en Los Dolses. Susan estudia español en una academia pequeña. Estudia los martes y los jueves. Hoy tiene clase de español a las diez. Antes de la clase, Susan habla español con Don Antonio. Antonio habla despacio y con calma.

Narrative plays before your first Flow Pass.

2 · Dialogue — learn both roles

Study the complete conversation. The text disappears during Flow Pass. In each round, you hear one character and speak the other character's lines from memory.
