This is a video I made while practicing for my Spanish 102 final exam, an oral presentation in Spanish (of course). I picked the topic of our trip to Mexico in 2004, because I could incorporate a lot of vocabulary from our textbook. I practiced about 8 or 10 more times after this, but I didn't record again because I was standing up, since that's how it would be done in the classroom. It took me about 8 hours to write this. I posted the written presentation on Lang-8, where my friends Daniel from Argentina, Aldem from Spain, and jdinunci from Venezuela helped me with grammar corrections (thanks guys!). I made index cards with the main words and starter phrases, and I practiced many times, sometimes using hand motions to help the class understand me. You can't see these very well on the video. Please note that I cannot speak like this in real life (yet), although I hope to be able to some day. Enjoy!
I'm using this blog to share my love of learning Spanish with anyone who wants to listen! Enjoy!
