First of all I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Hüseyin and I'm 16 years old.
The origin of my family is kurdish.
I was born on the 30th of August in Kurdistan.
At that time I lived in Mardin for 5 years.
But then I moved to Aachen where I have already been living for 12 years now.
I attend the basic school in Walheim and my favourite subjects there are biology and politics.
Then I went to the secondary school GHS Drimborn in Aachen.

I have got three brothers and three sisters. My sisters are three, forteen and eighteen years old and my brothers are twelve, twelve and sixteen.

Furthermore I would like to tell you something about my hobbies and interests.
I'm producing music.I like sports very much.
The rest of my free time I spend with my girlfriend.
I also enjoy meeting my friends.


After summer holidays I would like to change to this secondary school.
I would like to make the secondary school certificate.
After my secondary school certificate I will visit the trade school
and then I want to make a train as a machine builder.
Later maybe I want to studi machine builder at the RWTH.

First of all I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Hüseyin and I'm sixteen years old.
I was born on the 30th of August 1981 in Kurdistan.
My family has Kurdish ancestors. For the first five years of my live we lived in Mardin.
Then we moved to Aachen where I've been living for about twelve years now.

I attended the primary school in Walheim and my favorite subjects were biology and politics.
Afterwards I went to the general-education secondary school GHS Drimborn in Aachen.

I've got three brothers and three sisters.
My sisters are three, fourteen and eighteen years old
and my brothers are twelve, twelve and sixteen.

Furthermore I would like to tell you something about my hobbies and interests.
I like sports very much. Which sport do you practice yourself?
I'm producing music.

Are you a producer, a composer, a musician or a singer?
Which instrument do you play? Tell them a bit more about it.

The rest of my free time I spend with my girlfriend
and I enjoy meeting with my friends too.

After the summer holidays I would like to change to this
secondary school to earn my secondary school certificate here.
Subsequently I plan to attend the business school XYZ.

Then I'll probably start a professional training as a ...

Der Ausbildungberuf Maschinenbaumechaniker wird bestimmt nicht als 'machine builder' übersetzt.
Die Studenten werden umgangsprachlich als Maschienbauer bezeichnet und
die Absolventen des Studiums dann als Maschinenbau-Ingenieure.

Maybe I'll study mechanical engineering at the RWTH Aachen University later on.

Thank you for your attention.
Do you got any questions?

Do you got any questions?

Müßte es nicht korrekt
"Do you have any questions?" heißen? Oder kann man das umgangssprachlich so sagen? Wenn ich das so höre, würde ich an "Haben Sie Fragen erhalten?" denken

[Keswick]

Stimmt Saskia, es muesste "Have you got any (more) questions" heissen.
