01

Bạn nghĩ sao về việc học cùng nhau mỗi tuần một lần?

What do you think about studying together once a week?

02

Tôi thấy đó là ý hay vì mình có thể hỏi nhau.

I think it's a good idea because we can ask each other questions.

03

Nhưng nếu trình độ khác nhau thì có khó không?

But won't it be difficult if our levels are different?

04

Bạn nói có lý. Hay là luyện tập theo nhóm nhỏ?

That's a fair point. How about practicing in small groups?

05

Được đấy. Như vậy ai cũng có thời gian nói.

That sounds good. Then everyone would have time to speak.

06

Tuần sau mình thử rồi trao đổi xem thế nào nhé.

Let's try it next week and talk about how it went.

Conversation practice

Listen, then hide your lines and answer aloud. Read the meaning only when needed. Try the changed situation before revealing a model response. These speaking tasks are self-practice, not automatically graded.

Change the situation

Weekly meetings are difficult for you. Explain that and suggest twice a month.

One possible response

Tôi khó sắp xếp gặp hằng tuần. Mỗi tháng hai lần thì sao?

Meeting every week is difficult for me. How about twice a month?

Did you include all the changed details? Now switch roles and ask one follow-up question of your own.

Tôi thấy đó là ý hay vì mình có thể hỏi nhau.
