I agree with this. For my speaking exams, I always memorise it by writing it first, then focus on my pronunciation afterwards.

Plus having someone someone checking through what you've written before attempting to memorise it - you don't want to memorise the mistakes.
What exam board are you doing?

Yes! Thanks for adding that :biggrin: It's so hard to unmemorise French errors!

Ooh, good luck with that!

And yep, I've got French speaking and writing as well as German speaking and writing left, though I don't know when. All I do know is that French speaking will be on the week before Easter holidays. This is all just too stressful...

Thanks! :wink:
Wow, my teacher told me I should do German as well but I didn't think I'd manage. I'd probably end up writing the wrong language in each lesson tbh! Good luck with that :h:

I'm surprised I haven't mixed the two languages up yet. :lol:

Are you thinking of taking a language at A-Levels?

And thanks!

Almost definitely yes - I'm taking German, which will hopefully balance the three mathsy sciency subjects I'm taking.
