2021-03-04 19:02:05 #61 Our favourite mistakes: Grammar

Bu rasm shunday chiroyli.
Darsimiz har kuni soat 10da.

Perhaps you think it is:
This picture so beautiful.
Our class every day at 10 o’clock.

Well, it should be:
This picture is so beautiful.
Our class is every day at 10 o’clock.

Why?

We need the verb to be here in these sentences, otherwise they are incomplete. Many students know this but still make mistakes.

2021-03-03 19:12:05 #8 IELTS DOs & DON’Ts: Listening

Listening can be tricky, especially since you can hear the recording only once. How can we maximise our chances?

1) Get visual Don’t keep doing listening tasks with zero picture in your head. You will always struggle. Do try to understand daily life abroad. Get an idea of university life, transport systems, restaurants, gyms, etc. Watch TV serials or YouTube videos showing you daily life.

2) Concentration Don’t lose your focus or interest easily like a TikTok victim. Do consume videos, articles, podcasts and of course Afandi English posts that take more than a minute to understand. Learn to keep up your attention – you will need it for IELTS Listening.

3) Accents Don’t think English is just from abroad and therefore all the same. Do become familiar with different accents. In the recordings you may hear English from the UK, North America and/or the Southern Hemisphere (Australia, New Zealand and South Africa).
