Привет!
Я - англичанин, преподаю в Алматы английский язык: грамматика и подготовка к экзаменам .
Имею степень магистра, Эдинбург, и сертификат CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Adults) с пятилетним опытом преподавания.
Для меня очень важно найти подход к человеку, как можно скорее «разбить лёд» и разговорить студента, преодолеть языковой барьер и проблемы с произношением. В моём арсенале огромное множество эффективных, а главное интересных методов, а также добытый в ходе многих лет практики материал для обучения английскому языку. Под материалом я имею в виду интересные книги, видео, песни.
Во время своих уроков я всегда комбинирую несколько учебников. Более того, я все время нахожусь в поиске новых идей, я бы даже назвал это поиск вдохновения, ведь хороший урок это целое представление. Поэтому я отношусь ко всем ошибкам студентов с большим пониманием и нахожу все возможные варианты объяснений слов и выражений английского языка.
Сферы моих интересов это история, литература, футбол, путешествия, изучение иностранных языков.

Старайтесь не путать полдень и полночь.

Все знают, что AM означает «до полудня» (от лат. Ante Meridiem), а PM — «после полудня» (от лат. Post Meridiem). Но при этом многие путаются в обозначении полудня и полуночи. Так вот 12 часов дня — это 12 PM, а 12 часов ночи — 12 AM.

(«Обычно мой начальник превращается в оборотня в 12 часов ночи».)

IELTS Tips - Speaking

1. Give a full answer. Don't just give one word answers. Include more information. For example, when asked where you're from, instead of just saying the name of the place, speak in a sentence which states the name, the location, and how long you've been there.

This shows the examiner you are confident speaking in English. But don't speak too long or the examiner will think you've misunderstood the question!

Just like in the structure section, it is not important that you know every word in the reading section. Concentrate on the areas that the questions pertain to. Skim through the passage, read the questions, then read for more detail. The questions usually come in the order they appear in the passage. Anticipate the type of questions you will be asked in this section. At least 60 percent of the readings will have a main idea question. You will be asked at least two vocabulary questions from each reading. You will also be asked some detailed questions and some inference questions. You will not have time to reread a whole passage.

Use descriptive words. Don't use boring words like good, bad, nice, or okay. Use exciting words that covey emotion. Practice using higher level words for every simple word you know – such as thrilled instead of happy, or depressed instead of sad.

Speak up. Sometimes, students mumble and speak very softly because they are nervous or unsure of their words. Use simple, correct language rather than complicated vocabulary and speak loudly enough that the examiner does not have to strain to hear you. This indicates self-confidence and command of the language.

[Мар вин]

Keep a steady pace. Don't speak too fast or too slow.

[Мар вин]

Don't try to memorize answers to sample subjects. The examiner has enough experience to recognize that you are not speaking naturally and spontaneously and will change the subject or give you a lower score.

[Мар вин]

Use the sample subjects to give you practice speaking on a variety of topics, but not to memorize.

[Мар вин]

Explain names or words which are in another language. For instance, if you are asked to speak about a festival, which involves using words in your language, say the words clearly and give the meaning if any afterwards, so the examiner can follow your explanation.

Ask questions, if necessary, in Part 3 only. You cannot ask questions in Parts 1 and 2, but you can do so, if necessary in Part 3.

Practice speaking with a watch. Get an idea of how long two minutes is and approximately how much content you will have to cover.

[Мар вин]

Stay on topic. Don't change the subject or the examiner will think you have misunderstood and may give you a lower mark.

Have daily discussions with friends. Take turns asking each other questions about current events and develop your ability to speak about various topics, using varied sentence structure and vocabulary.
