hi and welcome back to Love English in today's lesson i want to give you the opportunity
to practice your english speaking skills i want to help you practice your pronunciation intonation
and fluency in english yes today you and i are going to have a short conversation i've
prepared a dialogue a short script for us to read together for you to listen and imitate my voice
my intonation my pronunciation and for us to interact essentially through youtube now this
is a conversation that i have written based on two friends or two acquaintances meeting by chance or
bumping into each other and having a quick short catch up a short chat just to see what each other
has been doing so it's a short dialogue but one that is filled with some really great vocabulary
you can find a glossary of the terms and new vocabulary down in the description box below and
you will also find a link to www.elc uk dot co dot uk where you'll find information and support to
help you book a course in the uk should you wish to practice your conversation skills even further
so if you've been dreaming of coming to the uk and studying for quite some time
you'll be surprised just how affordable it can be get in contact with us to learn more for now
