improving listening and writing
and also one about the conversation, but today is the time to do it
video to improve reading and listening comprehension because
that’s what you are asking for. This video will be
charged, that’s really full of tips to help you improve. Whatever you want
improve because you have to pass the reading exam or you just want to
read for joy and better understanding, these types will help you.
Let’s start with the video. Let’s start with something easy that you already have
they must have heard earlier. But it’s so important that we need it again
repeat. It’s a reading of questions. I remember,
how teachers bore me when they said: Read the question. Always read the question,
do not forget to read the question. But now that I teach and mark so much
examinations, I see how many points are lost by people not reading the question.
How many times have you seen a question that already contains an answer when it gives one example.
When you give two examples, usually
this is not the case, because you have given too many examples or when asked
something to describe and you have put the whole list, it’s not a description, and that’s why you could
fail. So please remember that you need to read the question.
It was quite simple and we went to the next one. The second point is concerned
practice, but the best way to practice. It’s reading messages.
Where to find the latest, most common vocabulary you can use
during the conversations you will see during the exam. In the exam often
they use examples from current events, so as a teacher
I’m looking for the best sources of news for my students.
The Telegraph very kindly sponsored today’s video, but it was not
it’s hard for me because I use this app myself every day. It’s news
an app I recommend to students,
because the content of the reports is trusted. You can use it both online and offline
so before Wi-Fi you can download all the messages and then when somewhere
you can learn everything. It’s great because
you can click on the topic you need and you are interested in because it is
really important. Download the content when you are at home or
connected to Wi-Fi and then when you are in city traffic or waiting
or somewhere where there is a bad connection or maybe in school,
you can get acquainted with the latest news in the section you are interested in
the most. I like it most that you can see everything
offline and online. It is very good to read your daily reports,
but how can you use messages to get into the head
the most vocabulary? I recommend you to write a dictionary dictionary.
I recommend having everything in your cell phone. Use The Telegraph,
try to read articles that are needed and interesting, and then
In the notes on your phone, enter the diary of the vocabulary so that you have a date on each day,
where you can make a note of words you do not understand in your app, and then,
when you come home, you can add a glossary word translation.
You have a list to study. You probably heard different
fake messages and unreliable messages that are routed. The Telegraph is
absolutely credible. It is well written, it is a lively language,
it’s current, and you can see it both online and offline. It is
fully available. I gave a link in the video description to anyone who
he wants to download it. I strongly recommend that you introduce a wordbook,
because he changed the vocabulary of many of my students. –
Tip # 3 is partly related to Tip # 2, but it is very important if
you want to get a good practice because the exercise makes a master.
It’s a timetable of reading time. You’ll be amazed how he can do it
increase the amount of what you read. Every morning in urban transport or
about breaks at work or at school you could read for joy, so do yourself
in the evening you will spend half an hour, but definitely integrate
reading between everyday activities, otherwise they will prefer other things
and you will omit. Improving reading and more
language skills is really like running a marathon.
You can not squeeze it, you can not do anything once and then wait for the essentials
improvement. It must be little and often. Therefore small tasks like
planning and writing a dictionary is so effective. write me
comments down, where you prefer to read or plan
time to read and when it will be now. Another way to hold
Reading time planning is to set your target in reading. Therefore, according to
plan a certain amount of articles for your own day or day
a certain amount of chapters or book pages for each day.
I do not read to improve in English. I read for fun and keep it
awareness of current events. I give and aim to read at least
five articles in the morning with coffee. I’m going through it briefly, and it’s just for me
the right amount of time. Sure, if I have more time, I read more.
I like to start my day with my usual set quantity. I can cross it, but I can not
to cheat him. So pay attention to setting goals for every day. – Another tip
is somewhat strange and does not have to suit everyone, but me
very convenient. He worked with me when I did my university exams because
my study was terribly bored. But I had to absorb articles, essays,
textbook literature in general, and incredibly useful and helpful
to gain interest and digestibility reading was
reading using the voice of some celebrity in my mind.
And the celebrity I chose was always Stephen Fry, which I mentioned
in earlier videos. He speaks “accepted pronunciation,”
he’s very intelligent, he’s a comedian and he has a wonderful voice. I am
read all articles, essays and textbooks for university dissertation
in his voice and so I used to get used to that everything was for me
less terrible. I see that other people are doing it too, because I get news
on Instagram and comments on YouTube that when I read something in English, I do it
by the voice. At first I thought it was strange, and then I thought,
Ah, what I’m doing is Fry. So choose a voice that
you really like it and try to enjoy it in your mind until next time
something to read. If you are reading to practice in English, give me the comments
know who you chose because it will be fun to see,
whom he chose. – Another tip is for people who are not
satisfied with their understanding of reading. If you feel like that
you have poor test results or do not have the proper reading benefit
for joy, this tip is for you: think about your reading and evaluate,
what’s wrong, why are not you satisfied? To make improvements,
you have to figure out the problem, you have to ask yourself why. Do you miss vocabulary?
It’s because you do not understand every second sentence because
do not understand the words? Do you miss a technical dictionary? Read
a general story, but when you read about politics or science, you are
totally beside (so confused). It’s because you are really struggling
with times? Or do not you understand which time has been used? Or
whether it is talking about the present or about the future? It’s more like the language itself
is it tiring or boring for you? It’s that
do you miss the time during the exam? – You have to think about what’s wrong, and then find yourself
solution or ask someone to help you find a solution. I can give you
all these tips to use when reading, but if you do not first know,
what the problem is, the road to improvement will be burdensome. I therefore urge you,
to think about your reading, to find out where the trouble is, and write it to me.
Help each other improve their reading skills. I find out,
where I have a reading problem when reading in Spanish. For example
when the boredom of the text is bored, I’ll run it over and do not try to understand it
the entire passage. What I have to do? I will make the contents of each paragraph
or every page to make a clear context
and what is in the whole article. So what’s your problem and if you can,
what do you need to do to overcome it? Write it down. – My other tip is also
it will seem strange. But it worked well for me.
I took the pen – it helps in different ways, One of them
obvious, which you know, is the undercurrent of words. It is, however
it is very important to underline the keywords or at the same time cross out the words,
which are not important to you. I would not be fooling them completely, but
probably crossed one line if you think it does not matter to you;
only keywords. – You can also use the pen to help you read fast.
Show him – it really helps anyone who
faces reading the text in the absence of time. In many trials
you are in a hurry and want to read as much as possible in the shortest possible time.
In my opinion, keeping track of the pen under words this way –
I know it’s funny now – but I want you to read fast. It’s too much for me
helps in much faster reading. You can try it out and see if that helps you.
Take an article, read it first without a pen, read it again with your pen. Stop it,
and see what’s faster. You may have to get used to, but learn
read fast and show you – it can change your test performance
from reading. – That’s all today, when it comes to tips. Very warmly
I suggest you click on the link in the video description and download it
The Telegraph. I already said how great she was. I’ve already used it
earlier and it was very nice to work with it because
I really like to recommend things I really trust. I believe that when you determine
The goal is to read eg 3-5 articles a day, certainly
you will improve your reading skills in the future. – Do not forget
