It's "spoken English" NOT "oral English"
How often do you practice thinking in English ?? Questioning yourself in English is not hard, but to respond quickly in complete sentences is
Writing is slow and gives you time to reconsider what you've put on paper
Speaking requires a much faster response You're forced to repeat what you've heard before while thinking "How is what we're talking about different than what I heard on ___ ?" If you don't speak out about those differences before the ongoing conversation ends, then the dialog is not memorable, and the other people you're talking to won't remember what you said, either It's good practice, but if you're #5 among 20 job seekers trying to impress an interviewer, the fact that he or she doesn't remember you means you've failed
Yes, writing a "Thank you note" afterwards does help, but what's worked for me before was to ask the interviewer for a piece of paper, write down what both of you remember, and to say "Thank you for teaching me ___ I learned something" right there BEFORE leaving the interview
Try it sometime Definitely beats trying to speak properly under pressure |
