Be comfortable, relax and have fun as you develop the ability to exchange basic conversation. Introduce yourself and talk about where you’re from. Describe your family and other people. Talk about what you like to do. Get information and make plans with a “travel agent.” Negotiate a purchase. Ask questions and begin to understand what native speakers say to you.
