Now this is for our dear Teachers. They meticulously plan a ‘Test’ (Assessment task in its true sense); Mark the test ; and then what???

Bachon ki shamat aa Jati hai😫

The true purpose of a ‘test’ is for the teacher to know about the strengths and difficulties of individual students. So that the teacher-student can work together to polish skills and fill the gaps in learning so as to make learning successful in real sense.

But the actual purpose is long forgotten in ’the high standard Schools’. As soon as the ‘test’ result is out.. the blame game and fault finding begins.. followed by seizing all the things that give pleasure to the so called ‘naughty and careless’ students. Parents are shattered by teachers’ comments about their kids future. The comments such as ‘he even failed in Punjabi.. not to talk of English’, makes the parents more embarrassed than anything else in the world.
Then.. the story of ‘Taare Zameen par’ unfolds for every Ishaan in the family. But not all of them are lucky to find Aamir khans..

So teachers, parents, and siblings of all the lovely students, please help the young ones enjoy their life and understand that failing a test is not the end of the world. Teachers please ponder over the true meaning of the assessment tasks.

Use Normalisation in your writing to make it more concise and abstract. What is normalisation? It is substituting the verb with its noun form. Let’s take an example- (reduce-reducing/ reduction)

We should reduce the use of electricity to save the environment.

Reducing the use of electricity is extremely important to protect the environment.

Do you think second one is a better sentence?

For IELTS Speaking, always be considerate of the following points-

1) sit in an upright position with your shoulders up
2) Maintain an eye contact with the interviewer
3) Refrain from hand gestures
4) avoid repetition of phrases- for example- ‘ The place I visited, the place I visited is is .....
(It shows your nervousness)
5) Say complete sentences
6) Don’t try to provide too much information, you will repeat your ideas otherwise.

IELTS Reading involves focusing on the questions more than the passage.

What are you going to answer is more important to know than knowing what’s in the passage.

In IELTS Reading, we read for the sake of information, not for knowledge.

So always keep in mind the question when reading the part of the passage.
