Bonjour,
Je prépare actuellement mon oral d'anglais de BTS. En effet, il dure 20 minutes soit (plus ou moins) 10 minutes de présentation et 10 minutes d'explications de textes inconnus. C'est pour cette première étape que je suis venu vous demander de l'aide.
J'ai malheureusement un niveau très faible en anglais mais tant bien que mal j'ai essayé de faire quelque chose de correct pour ma présentation car c'est celle où je peux engranger le plus de points.
Voici ce que j'ai préparé :
First of all, I would like to introduce myself. My name is NS, I'm student in a technical college. I'm studying accounting and financial management in xxx.
During our studies for the higher diploma, we have to do a heigh weeks work placement in a company, a firm of accountants or a bank. As for me, I chose to do this internship a firm of accountants in xxx called NE.
This firm is a little building company who has two offices : one in xxx which is the head office and another in xxx.
I wanted to have an experience on this type of accounting system because we can see the real work and accounting world.
I worked in the General Accounts department at the head office. The firm is owned ans run by two partners and the are about twenty employees : two chartered accountants, ordinary accountants and two secretaries.
It's a medium-sized firm with about two hundred clients. Most of these clients are small companies like shops, tradesman or professional people.
During my work placement, I was lucky to work on same files from beginning to end. I worked especially on the accounts of driving school and a small gardening company. My main job was to make entries in the different accounting books the sales book, the purchase book ans the bank book.
In fact, my job was making entries on the computer in the different accounting books. I hade to enter date like invoices, payments...
I also deal with bank reconciliation. In this job is very important not to make mistakes. Another job was checking in the accounts to see if there were out standing payments from customers or suppliers.
Then I Had to draw up a spread sheet on Excell to calculate the profits of the company, to set up an analytical accounting system. But my most interesting activity was participating in meetings with the customers or bankers.
This work placement was very beneficial for me, I gained more confidence in myself and it allows me to gain valuable professional experience. I learnt to work in a team and adapt to different people in the world of work. Also, I learnt to use Sage, a specialised accounting program who is different from the program that we use at college.
This wasn't my first experience of working life. I have always done student jobs during the holidays in a bank or in restaurant in Marseille. There jobs have given me a good experience. I can see the necessity to work hard if we want to succeed.
The work placement help us to choose our future fields of study. Personally, I saw tat I don't really like accounting, even if it's useful in my studies. Accounting is very interesting but only at a high level otherwise it's very repetitive. Next year, I would like to continue my studies for become a chartered accountant but this studies are long and difficult.
Pourriez vous me dire ce que vous en pensez ? Ce que je pourrais corriger, modifier, rajouter ou supprimer que ce soit au niveau de la tournure des phrases, l’enchaînement logique des choses...
Merci d'avance

Bonjour,

This firm is a little building company who( neutre) has two offices I and the ( adv.struct.descriptive)are about twenty employees :

This work placement was very beneficial for me, I gained more confidence in myself and it allows( past) me to gain valuable professional experience. Also(mal placé), I learnt to use 'Sage', a specialised accounting program who( neutre) is different from the program that we use at college.(' ,,Collège ? Secundary school or Institute?)
This wasn't my first experience of working life. I have always done student( pluriel du génitif) jobs during the holidays, in a bank or in restaurant( pl ou sg avec 'a') in Marseille. There( adj.démonstr.)
The work placement help( oh ! 3ème sg) us to choose our future fields of study. Personally, I saw [/bleu ( to realize)]tat ( orth.). Accounting is very interesting but only at a high level, otherwise it's ( can beor I find it)) very repetitive. Next year, I would like to continue my studies for( oh ! But = inf .complet) become a chartered accountant but this( pl.!) studies are long and difficult.
Voilà ce que j'ai pu faire pour aller à l'essentiel. Si c'est à rédiger, il faut éviter les formes contractées et les répétitions. De même vérifier ce vocabulaire technique et commercial. Il ne faut pas se ' dévaloriser' et montrer une once de renoncement ou de découragement . Tout le contraire . La motivation doit transparaître à chaque ligne : d'ailleurs , vous ne vous débrouillez pas mal.Quand vous faites un bilan de ce qu'il vous en reste aujourd'hui : employez le ' present perfect' de préférence.
Courage and good luck .
