The oral exam AS/ A2  1/3

          Parle-moi de toi!

When answering this question (or similar question after the role play), start with an idiomatic expression, deal quickly with your name, with where you live (include environment vocabulary) and then focus on your relationship with one person of your family.  Try to include one outrageous comment (whilst staying polite!) to lead the examiner into asking you a question about it.  Prepare your answer carefully. 

Then move on to your hobbies and make an obvious link with France (for example, if you play basketball, mention that you would love to play Handball, a French game).  Express your opinion in a way which enables you to use as many idiomatic expressions as possible.  Use this opportunity to ask the examiner a question on his / her opinion about something.

Then go on to your education, explain why you think the combinations of subject is good for the future.  Mention why you do or don't want to go to university and describe yourself in 20 years.  Here might be a good place to make an attempt at humour.  It is also a good place to mention a current affairs topic.

Once you run out of ideas, it is a good idea to mention that you will want to work with French because you love France even though there are a number of problems there.  Then start to talk about the topic you feel most confident with (pollution, sexism etc…).
