Welcome to the General Conversation practice deck. The speaking exam requires you to hold a conversation on various topics. Instead of memorising long speeches, this deck will teach you key phrases and sentence-starters. You can then combine these building blocks to create your own spontaneous answers, using different tenses and expressing your opinions.

Let's start with Theme 1: Identity and Culture. First, we'll cover how to talk about yourself, your family, and your friends. A common question is to describe someone's personality.

Now let's talk about relationships. You'll need phrases to describe how you get on with people.
