Help with Spanish revision?

Hi,
I would really appreciate it if anyone who is or has done A level Spanish could tell me their revision techniques. Apart from re-learning the vocab, I don't know how to prepare for the exam especially the oral. Thanks :smile:

*bump*

You could get someone practise answering you questions and recording your responses, then if you listen to them and write an improved answer? I am doing AS spanish so it probably won't be any help but yeah spanish is hard to revise for.

You could also practise with a spanish teacher as well. That's basically what I do as well haha XD I just write advantages and disadvantages.

A2 German here, but I can't imagine the strategies are too different :rolleyes:

Last year for oral, I just learnt a lot of vocab around my topic area and watched videos of people talking about my chosen topic. That helped me to get ideas of common (but good and complex) sentence structures I could use.

Im sure my teacher would be happy to help me when she has some free time.

Also i like watching videos to help with my grammar so if i can find any videos for tourism and culture then that would probably be really helpful, thank you :smile:

Oooh interesting. I did mine on health and fitness.

For us (edexcel) we have to choose a broad topic area (at AS) and then we can be asked questions on anything around the area

I'm going to revise by listening to podcasts and watching youtube! Also past papers are always helpful as I find there is loads of key vocab you can steal for example in the listening transcripts and reading questions.
