How is everyone's teachers making you prepare for the A2 exam? I'm doing Spanish and mine have told us to basically write a monologue on the play and book with questions down the side so it all flows and we have to learn it, so obviously it isn't meant to be pre-learnt but they say we're meant to lead the conversation... just wondering how other schools are doing it :s-smilie:


Yeah we're doing pretty much the same thing but for French and I'm freaking out !! how are you learning it all? It's so so so much to learn :s-smilie:
Who else was the only student in their French/Spanish A Level class??
There's only 4 in our class but never just 1 of us hahah

Good job, or oral practice could be tricky!

Yeah, it affected my future. I started uni and everyone else was fluent in French and Spanish and of course , they weren't the only student in their classes.
yeah it must've been a lot harder to debate and practice speaking!

The ONLy student? Crikey. In my German we only have 3 people but I expect that as German is almost extinct at A-Level, but wouldn't expect that of French or Spanish especially.

Thank you so much! &I'm the same, I don't speak to anyone in my sixth form because i just drifted away from all my friends since they are all still in the same classes together, well mostly, and I'm not.

I have my french oral tomorrow, ugh!
