Einleitung

My experiences means: things you have done in your life. In this aiMOOC you learn a few useful English chunks. You can say what you have done. You can also ask another person.

Mini goal: Say 3–5 simple things about your experiences. The people and personal details in the examples are fictional.

Look at the picture. Try English first: I have been to ...

Hint: It is a city in the UK.

Deutsch-Hilfe: Du kannst sagen: „Ich war schon einmal in …“

Example: I have been to London.

Solution: I have been to London.

I can ...

1. I can say: I have ...
2. I can ask: Have you ever ...?
3. I can answer: Yes, I have. or No, I haven't.
4. I can understand a short message about experiences.

Learning path

Notice → understand → practise → use → feedback → use again.

Keep it simple. You do not need a long story.

Notice: What do you already know?

Quick check

Say the English words you know for these pictures. One word is enough.

Try English first. ice cream – football – walk – London – bike

Hint: Point at a picture and say one word.

Deutsch-Hilfe: Zeige auf ein Bild und nenne ein bekanntes englisches Wort.

Feedback

Three quick checks

Check only these points.

2. Did I use a useful form such as been, visited, eaten, played, ridden?
3. Is my question Have you ever ...?

A partner may say:

Clear! – I understood you.

Try again. – Say the chunk one more time.

One fix: Change only one important word.

Safe learning

Voice recordings are optional. Keep them private unless your teacher gives a clear school-approved task. Do not upload private photos, names, locations or recordings without permission.

If your school allows AI support, write your own sentence first. Then check one point. Do not send personal data. Read the suggestion, check it and write the final sentence yourself.

Use again: mini challenge

Make three sentences and one question.

Example: I've been to London. I've eaten ice cream. I've played football. Have you ever been to London?

Can-do check

Choose: yes – almost – not yet

1. I can name three experiences.
2. I can ask Have you ever ...?
3. I can answer Yes, I have. or No, I haven't.
4. I can use never in one simple sentence.
5. I can make myself understood.

If you choose almost or not yet, repeat the Micro-practice once.
