Hi, friends!
With
only two days left, now's the time to put the final touches on your
videos! Enter for a chance to win a 300 euro gift card. Whether you are level A1, like Mikael or C2 like, Linn - this contest is for you! Listen to the blogs below and get inspiration for your video. :D
Here's step one:
1) Create a video from 1 to 3 minutes including the following elements:
- Introduce yourself to the OLS community members: start your video by saying your name, where you are from, where you spent, are spending or will spend your mobility and which OLS language learning community you are part of.
- Choose one of the following topics:
- Pronunciation challenge: say a tongue-twister, a word you like or read a sentence from a book in the language of the country where you’re spending your mobility. You can also pick a sentence from OLS language courses. Explain the reason why you pick the sentence.
- Tell us an anecdote about your language learning journey: tell us something that happened to you while making your first steps in your new language: a funny misunderstanding, the first time you attended a class in a different language, how you made friends in your new language, etc.
- What or who inspired you to learn a new language? Tell us more about the motivations that influenced you when you chose to embark on your language learning journey: was it a person you met, a new job, a place you travelled to…?
2) Read carefully the rules below, fill in the participation form and submit your video. For accessing the webform you will need to insert the same credentials of your EU Academy account used for OLS (EU Login). To submit your video, you can choose between the following two options:
- Publish your video on your preferred social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube or TikTok) using the hashtag #OLSCommunityStories and share the link of the video in the participation form.
- Share your video through a file-sharing system of your choice and include in the participation form the link for downloading it.
