56 people to talk to. Pick one and start.

None of them teaches. Each one is the person across the table: a recruiter with eight questions, an examiner with a stopwatch, a neighbour who has heard it all before, a friend who will not fill your silence for you. They speak first, and they never switch to your language.

Practise as much as you want. This is not a test.

Repeat the same conversation nine times in one evening if that is what it takes. Nothing is capped, nobody compares you with anyone else, and none of it goes on a record. The review afterwards just shows you where you lost the thread. Ignore it if you like.
