Mediation

How to do mediation

What is your task (write an e-mail or talk to someone or write a report)?
What is the text about?
Who do you write for or who do you speak to?
Is it a German person or an English person or an American person?
What would this person like to know?
Is there any information that you can leave out because it is not important for this person?
Is there any information that you should explain to this person because only a person who lives in your region can know it (e.g. Vesper)?
Always remember to be polite.
If you don´t know a word:
- Explain it (e.g. Internat – a school where you also live)
- Paraphrase it (e.g. Dachboden – the highest place in a building)
- Use a similar word (e.g. ein Geheimnis lüften = lösen – to solve a mystery)
