Tips for the FCE English Exam Describing Photographs

Tips for the FCE English Exam Describing Photographs One of ESOLs most challenging sections for students in the oral exam is the photograph section.Lets look at one together now.In this part of the test you have to speak for 1 minute without interruption. The examiner will give you two colour photographs and you have to compare and contrast them as well as talking about your reaction to them. Your partner will get a different set of photographs and has to do the same thing. When each of you has finished speaking, the other will be invited to comment on the topic of the photographs (for about 20 seconds).Have a look at the two photographs below which show people making music in different ways. Try to think of things you could say to compare them. In this example, the examiner asked the following question: ‘Why do you think the music is important to the different groups of people?’How would you compare these two photographs?These two photographs aresimilar.alikecomparableanalogousparallelThey both show people enjoying themselves with music.They both display people making music together.How Would You Contrast These Two PhotographsThese photographs aredifferentdissimilar.divergentThese photographs display people from different cultures playing music.The music played in the first photograph appears to be tribal while the second photograph  is more likely to be  classical music  or jazz.Why do you think the music is important to the different groups of people?Music allows both  sets of people  to express themselves as individuals and as part of a group.It also enables  both groups  to spend time with people of similar interests.Music encourages  both groups to engage with the  cultural environment of their respective societies.Contact us to take FCE preparation classes.Did you find this blog helpful?

LSAT Tip of the Week Its All About the Bubble

LSAT Tip of the Week It's All About the Bubble LSAT Law School Blog The LSAT is famous for its tight timing. Check out this timer by Alpha Score to practice your timing. Surprisingly enough, the way you bubble your answers on the LSAT holds some importance. You have to use every second to your advantage. Although it may seem counterintuitive, bubbling in bulk will actually save you precious time. As you work your way through a section, circle your answers in the test packet itself. When you reach the end of a page, turn to your answer sheet and fill in answers for that page in bulk. This way you are not wasting time moving between the test booklet and your answer sheet. Of course, you have to be very careful to pay attention to which bubble you are filling in and if it correspond to the answer you circled. When you have about five minutes left, start bubbling answers one at a time, even the questions you are skipping. If you skip a question, make note of it by making a light dash mark by the number, but fill in a bubble regardless. This is just in ca se you run out of time before you have time to go back and address it. A total guess is always better than a blank!

Where on earth should I teach English abroad [With free TEFL country comparison chart]

Where on earth should I teach English abroad [With free TEFL country comparison chart] TEFL country comparison chart One of the trickiest parts of moving abroad to teach is figuring out where you should actually go. (Been there, done the excessive amounts of paperwork...and fallen into our fair share of internet rabbit holes along the way). At Teach Away, there isn’t a day that goes by without someone asking one of us what the requirements for teaching English abroad are and where the best place to go is. But the fact is, there’s just no one quick answer and no one-size-fits all ESL destination. It really varies from country to country and person to person, especially when it comes to factors out of your control, like visa regulations, education and experience requirements, age and nationality limits...the list goes on. So, if you’re not sure where you want to teach abroad, our chart below is a great place to start. At a glance, you can see which countries pay the most, what the average salary for an ESL teacher is overseas, what the visa situation looks like, who your students are likely to be, the average contract length, education requirements and information about common perks like housing and flights. So have a look - maybe you know all about South Korea but never considered options like Bolivia or Costa Rica. But before you scroll any further...read this You just want to get out there and travel the world, amirite? Our advice is to buckle down, get your TEFL certificate out of the way and move to the next action point on the list. (And yes, you should get TEFL certified before you teach abroad!) But keep this in mind while you’re TEFL shopping - most countries hiring ESL teachers want to see a 120-hour TEFL on your application (either online or in-person will do). If you’re planning on investing in a TEFL course (and we suggest you think of it as an investment - this is your future we’re talking about ) you might as well choose one that meets the minimum requirements for most countries. In short, we like to think of a 120-hour TEFL course as your passport to teaching English practically anywhere in the world. Now, onto the good stuff - our humongous beast of a chart.

Building a connection with your international students

Building a connection with your international students As foreigner teaching abroad, you might be worried your students have a hard time relating to you. However, the opposite is almost always true - they’re curious and keen to get to know you. Making yourself available and approachable will allow you to forge a stronger connection with your classes. There are a few techniques you can use to achieve this.1. Make yourself approachableAs a new teacher from a different country, your students may not initially feel they can talk to you, particularly if they’re shy when it comes to speaking English. However, if you’re working in a middle or high school, it can be really beneficial to both you and your students to invite them them to come and talk to you at anytime about anything. Dedicate some time in your week to students. Be welcoming and understanding. You could recommend your pupils make an appointment with you, or simply display some available hours on your office door, if you have one.2. Catch up with classSpend a few minutes ever y morning, or at the start of each class, catching up with your students. How are they feeling today? What have they been doing outside of school? Do they have any interesting news? Encourage them to share their lives with you and talk to them about what you’ve been up to as well. What are your hobbies? What local sights have you visited recently or customs have you taken part in? Share your perspectives on life in their country. Not only will you learn more about their lifestyles and their personalities, they’ll also get a valuable insight into how you think and that understand that their teacher is human too! This helps get students engaged with you and settle into their lesson.3. Get involvedIt’s a requirement of many international schools for teachers to take part in extra-curricular activities. If there is an opportunity to do so, offer to run a class or group. Whether it’s sports, music or art, engaging in a fun activity with your students is a fantastic way to gain a better understand them and the way they think, as well as gain their respect and trust. It lends the chance to relax and bond in the school environment.

Human Life is an Unceasing Sequence of Single Actions

Human Life is an Unceasing Sequence of Single Actions Ludwing von Mises (1881-1973) is one of the most notable economists of the twentieth century and the foremost economist of the Austrian school of economics. Mises demonstrated that free markets, the division of labor, and private capital investment is the only possible path to the prosperity of the human race. He also showed that government intervention, in addition to hampering and crippling the market, would prove counter-productive leading inevitably to socialism. In his masterpiece Human Action Mises writes: Human life is an unceasing sequence of single actions. Acting man is eager to achieve more satisfactory state of affairs than provided by the status quo . His mind imagines conditions which suit him better, and his action aims at bringing about this desired state. With each action human climb one step on the latter of achievements; never to cease; never to yield. In case youre interested in economics I encourage you to climb that next step and become educated about economics; perhaps even with the help of one the  3000 economics tutors  at Tutorz.com.
