I would hold a conversation with my pupil and find out what level they are at and what they need to achieve using correct language pronunciation so the pupil can hear the spoken language. The more you hear a language the easier it becomes.
Conversations on various topics of interest to the pupil will help the reader of language usage. Everyday vocabulary grammatically correct and understandable to the listener is a priceless asset on today's world. It is essential for business and personal relationships to thrive.
