The BEST way for YOU to learn English – Extrovert or Introvert?

JADE: Are you learning English in a way that suits your personality and makes you an effective learner? When you learn in a way that fits your personality, you will enjoy your studies more and progress faster. This means that people with introverted personalities are likely to learn best in a way that is different to people with extroverted personalities. Find out the different ways introverts and extroverts like to learn. If you don’t know if you’re an introvert or extrovert, and what that means exactly — I explain all you need to know. Once you know more about your personality and whether you are mostly introverted or extroverted, you can find out what your language-learning strengths and weaknesses are. Remember — it’s not good or bad to be an extrovert or introvert. We’re just different! …But for the record, I’m an introvert and proud ;)

FALSE FRIENDS: CAREER VS. DEGREE

Do you know what 'career' means?

I hope those of you who have attended the lessons lately will already be able to answer this question correctly. As you know, career refers to 'the job or jobs that someone has in a particular area of work' not to someone's university studies.

Spanish students often misunderstand this word as they tend to translate it as a similar Spanish word. However, career and carrera are what we call 'false friends', two words that look or sound similar but have different meanings.

If you want to know more about false friends you must check out the following blog. Amanda will teach you about them in a fun way in her blog. Explore it and have fun while learning.

QUESTIONS

Dear students,
Here's a link to several resources which can help you understand question formation better. 

The site (BBC Learning English) where you will find it is worth a look too. You will find lots of interesting stuff.



I hope it helps!
