are in a visual DBA, you may not go to any other website)
● You must be alone
● You may be asked cultural questions.
● You may be asked to explain any new grammar structures you have
learned in the module
● You may be questioned in Spanish using your new grammar structures
and vocabulary, and you will be required to answer in Spanish, in complete
sentences!
● You may be asked to model new conversation skills you have learned in
the module.
