How to select a topic for GCSE English spoken language component

How to select a topic for GCSE English spoken language component The GCSE English Skills component is now called spoken language. It's mandatory but does not count towards your GCSE grade. However, it's assessed separately at Distinction, Merit, Pass or Ungraded. It's an individual talk of approximately 5 minutes, with questions and applicable in all exam boards. For many students, this can be a daunting prospect, and five minutes can feel like a long period to fill even when you are speaking about a subject you are knowledgeable about. The key requirements to think about are: Presentations must be formal but can take a wide variety of forms, including talks, debates, and speeches. Presentations must be planned and organised and agreed on in advance with your teacher. You can use pre-prepared notes, but this is not a requirement. After the presentation, you must answer questions about your talk. Teachers are looking for you to demonstrate your presentation skills as well as listen and answer questions about your presentation. While presenting can feel nerve-wracking there are ways you can prepare 1. Choose a subject that you feel comfortable with, and you are already knowledgeable about. This can be a: hobbies, a sport, politics, a book or author you love, football, your culture or religion. The environment, climate change, the news, and even a well-known person can also we a good choice. 2. Bear in mind your presentation is all about communicating information, so you need to think what angle are you going to take that will be of interest. 3. Structure your talk, so it brings up interesting ideas and engages your audience. For example, if you're going to talk about a hobby don't just talk about why you like it, say what it means to you, how it's maybe changed your life, and why you feel it's popular. 4. For ideas watch other talks by teens on YouTube and TedTalks 5. These can help to give you ideas of how to make your short presentation interesting. 6. Practice with family and friends or if you feel shy record yourself on your phone and watch yourself back to improve your technique. 7. If nerves get the better of you breathe and admit to feeling nervous. Your teacher isn't going to mark you down on this. 8. Finally, don't build it up to be bigger than it is. It's five minutes, and though you are marked on it, it doesn't count towards your final GCSE English grade.

Language Learning On a Shoestring The Cheap Fluency Guide

Language Learning On a Shoestring The Cheap Fluency Guide Language Learning On a Shoestring: The Cheap Fluency Guide Its hard to separate languages from money.All around the world, people are paying top dollar for access to language education.In most places, that means English classesâ€"anything from English immersion preschool to business English refresher  courses.In the English-speaking world, there are instead news articles and magazine ads that try to  entice you to go abroad or learn from home.Doing so, they say, will increase your lifetime income by tens of thousands of dollars.Whether or not youre planning to learn languages for the economic benefit, though, you probably want to minimize your costs up front.When it seems like language learning is a matter of financial investment rather than of putting in the time and effort, it might make you wonder whether its even worth it.But did you know you can learn languages without breaking the bank?Below are resources and tips for doing just thatâ€"along with a couple of reasons why spending a little money might not be a bad idea. Language Learnin g On a Shoestring: The Cheap Fluency GuideTip #1: Get Professional Courses On the CheapDid you know you can access or download complete, professionally-made language courses for free?Im not even talking about the free beginner-intermediate app courses like Duolingo.Some publishers make courses and release them absolutely free of charge onlineâ€"either stand-alone or to promote other material:Routledge, maker of the Colloquial course books, offers the companion audio files to each book free on their website. So if you can get a copy of the book used or at a library, the audio companion is yours to explore.A European organization called 50Languages (formerly known as book2) has produced a complete introductory audio course inâ€"you guessed itâ€"fifty languages. Each course is broken up into 100 lessons, with every line recorded slowly and clearly by native speakers.Rounding out the selection of complete courses, there are dozens of older FSI, DLI, Cortina and Peace Corps courses that have entered the public domain and are freely accessible with their audio intact. Theyre available at The Yojik Website.Keep in mind that these courses arent necessarily without their drawbacks. For example,  the FSI (Foreign Service Institute) and DLI (Defense Language Institute)  courses were mostly developed by the United States government in the 1960s and 1970s to prepare diplomats and military personnel for placement abroad.Due to their age and target audience, the language taught is rather formal and perhaps outdated.  Not only will you never learn how to ask for the WiFi password, it’s likely that all the dialogues will use the formal pronouns. You’re definitely going to have to supplement these courses with other, more modern material.However, despite these slight disadvantages, the pedagogy behind the courses is sound. They were designed to be used in a classroom setting and are extremely thorough. If you have the stamina to stick through a few hundred hours of grammar and vocabulary drills, these are the courses for you. Theres a loyal following of language learners online who adore these high-quality free materials.Some of the other courses above are designed to be more basic and may not cover everything you need to learn.However, even after youve finished whatever free language courses there are online, you can still find a whole world of free language content just waiting to be used. One of the most overlooked places for this is likely right in your hometown.Even the tiniest public libraries  usually have at least moderate collections of foreign language material.Take a trip over there (or use the online catalog) to see if you can find some  famous name-brand coursesâ€"not to mention some page-turners in the Foreign Literature section.Tip #2: Take Advantage of Free Trials and DiscountsTheres another category of resources that can give you a lot of content for little or no money.I’m talking about paid language learning websites here. But why do they make an appearance in an article like this?Because many sites offer free trials or limited free access to their content. And pretty much all of them have extensive blog or advice sections with tips and tricks for learning languages.Aside from that, not all paid language learning sites cost a lotâ€"you can often take advantage of cheaper plans that give you limited access, and depending on what youre looking for, this can be more than worth it.Take FluentU for instance. It’s a website offering native-language videosâ€"like movie trailers, music videos, news and inspiring talksâ€"with clickable dual subtitles so that you can look up words instantly. Not only is there a free trial, but pricing differs according to what you need (check out the Basic plan if youre on a budget). Plus, the FluentU blogs give you some of the best learning material you can find online entirely for free, and cover popular languages like French, German, Spanish, Chinese and more.Glossika is another p rolific website with a language course count pushing 60. Apart from an extensive blog and free PDF section, this audio-based site offers a 7-day free trial for major languages and unlimited access to minority or endangered languages. So this might be a good site to check out if youre learning an obscure language.Tip #3: Explore Global News Content OnlineSince youre reading this post, youve likely already started looking for language resources online.But some of the best may barely even register as language resources at all.News sites like GlobalVoices, BBC.com  or NHK World  may seem at first to be completely unrelated to language learning.However, each of these sites translates their content into more than a dozen languages to reach a foreign audience. GlobalVoices even has the links to the translations conveniently located above every article!Major newspapers in cities all over the world now have multimedia websites with hundreds of hours of audio or video content to keep the inte rmediate or advanced learner occupied.By downloading and formatting these translated articles into side-by-side parallel texts, you can quickly check the meaning of an article while continuing to expose yourself to natural, authentic native content.Tip #4: Connect and ShareThe internet was built to connect people.And you can ride that connection straight into a new language experience.Online Language ExchangeThere are two major players on the field of online language exchange right now:  WeSpeke and Hellolingo.Both of these are full-fledged social networks that function similarly to Facebook or WhatsApp.HelloLingo is the third iteration of a vibrant online language exchange community dating back to the mid-2000s called SharedTalk.It’s reinvented itself a few times, but the core concept remains the sameâ€"connecting people through text and voice chat so that they can help one another learn languages.WeSpeke is more of a rounded-out social experience, where you can search for people with the same interests or background as you and add them as friends. In addition to text and audio chat, video chat is built right into the platform!On both sites, you simply register with your native language and the languages you’re looking to learn, and browse around to find people with the opposite language profile.Since English is so important worldwide, native English speakers often find themselves swamped with invitations for free practice!Online Language Learning CommunitiesAnd outside of these specialized exchange websites, you can also find enormous communities of language learners online.One of the largest active forums for language learners can be found, naturally, at language-learners.org. Its biggest section is the language log page, where members keep regular diaries of their progressâ€"usually learning three or four languages at a time.There are also regular forum-wide challenges, including the Free and Legal Challenge. Thats exactly what it sounds like: learning a language only using legally available free materials.Lastly, if youre more the social media type, the Polyglot Club Facebook group is one of the largest language-themed Facebook pages.Facebook moves much faster than a traditional forum, but as long as you stay on top of it, you can use it as a hub to share tips, resources and even set up impromptu language exchanges.Tip #5: Spend Money to Save MoneySticking to free resources can be a great challenge. But theres often an opportunity cost associated with tracking down free online files or waiting for a conversation partner to appear online.And that cost is time.If youre a busy learner or financially motivated to learn a language, there comes a point when spending a little bit of money on the right thing can get you pretty far pretty fast.For example, if you know exactly what you need to learn, then it makes a lot of sense to buy a course tailored to your needs.Perhaps youve got a job working retail and you notice that youre losing potential sales because you cant communicate with Chinese customers looking for cosmetics.Buying a course for business or retail Mandarin could be a direct solution to your problem, and youll likely see benefits much faster than if you started with a free general course.You may also consider hiring a specialized tutor as an alternative to free language exchange.On  italki, you can search for professional, experienced tutors who specialize in specific areas of language education like test preparation, business and more.If your future immigration or job prospects hinge on demonstrating foreign language proficiency, a bit of money spent on an exam-focused tutor could pay off big later.Whichever way you slice it, learning a language without dropping serious cash is an appealing prospect.It takes hard work, but in my view, the best resources for learning are the ones that youre passionate about or fascinated by.Once you can dive into the wealth of native-language content online, youre ju st about set for the rest of your language learning journey.And when your level gets high enoughâ€"maybe youll be the one making the free resources!

Are the national collections of national benefit

Are the national collections of national benefit Last week saw the opening of the Natural History Museum's Darwin Centre Phase II. This impressive extension connects the much-loved Waterhouse building and Darwin Centre Phase I, and will house over 20 million specimens in 3.3km of cabinets. Like the rest of the museum, the centre will be free to access to the public. Most of London's major museums have been free since 2001; this includes the National and Portrait Galleries, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Science Museum. The lack of entrance fee encourages a casual, drop-in approach to the museums, especially for those living locally. This can be extremely helpful when it comes to school research projects, allowing students to get up close and personal with key artefacts, without hefty entrance fees. Six of the top ten attractions in London are now free museums. This increase in popularity is unprecedented, and reflected in the increase of 'blockbuster' exhibitions, such as the Terracotta Army at the British Museum, a paid-for temporary exhibition which attracted the kind of ticket-buying fanaticism usually reserved only for music or theatre events. However, is there a down side to this magnanimity? The museums are currently funded through a mixture of donations, retail, temporary exhibitions (which often do require an entrance fee), private hire and Government funding. The majority of the establishments are based in London and yet the money that funds them is taken nationwide. Is this a fair policy? Although these are national collections, are they of national benefit?

What Is En Charge Chemistry?

What Is En Charge Chemistry?The term, 'En charge Chemistry' is actually a very important one for all aspiring Chemistry students. En is in fact one of the key ingredients in all of the categories that are defined in chemistry. En is actually the constituent of the elements and the compounds that comprise them.In chemistry it is not possible to separate the different elements from each other. Every atom of an element is a molecule, which can be called on. It is used to refer to the elemental content of the entire element. Thus, the elements are classified into different groups such as the alkali-metal group, alkaline earth group, earth, carbonic-acid group, sulphuric-acid group and the halogen group.In order to understand the concept of an en, it is important to note that it refers to the three elementary states of matter, namely the first state, which is in the solid form, second state which is the liquid and the third state which are the gas. There are several types of en, which are commonly used in chemistry. Among these are the cation, anion.The cation has to be distinguished from the anion. In other words, in the former the opposite charges are attracted to each other, while in the latter the opposite charges are repelled. One example of this is sodium, where the cation is the positive and the anion is the negative. In the anion, two electrons are being involved. However, in the cation, only one electron is involved. When the anion is oxidized, it forms positively charged ions which get deposited in its immediate surroundings.Similarly, the anion is oxidized when the electrons of the cation are substituted by protons. When the anion gets oxidized, two protons will get absorbed from the oxygen molecules. However, as the protons get discharged, the protons, which were originally present in the anion, are also released. This is known as the cation plus ion, or the additional ion.The remaining charge of the cation is provided by the neutrons of the hydrogen ato ms. These electrons are usually responsible for dissociating the positive and negative protons and thus making the cation and the anion. Thus, the anion is the stronger and the heavier.It is important to know that the anion is a compound which has a charge plus. The whole concept of charge is quite complicated but an en should be clarified. One should always remember that a compound with any excess of the charge must have either a positive or a negative charge.

Organic Chemistry Tutor Calculus - What Does it Take?

Organic Chemistry Tutor Calculus - What Does it Take?Many students struggle with my organic chemistry tutor calculus in high school. Many students also struggle with my organic chemistry tutor calculus in college. Many of the reasons for this are the same. They have not learned enough about these concepts that are needed to be taught in order to be able to perform at a professional level.For many students, this means that they are not taught a good learning environment and they have not been exposed to concepts that they need to learn. These concepts can be applied in areas outside of chemistry as well. When there is an environment where concepts are taught and the student can use these concepts in their daily life, then that student can perform at a professional level.There are many ways to teach students and how to present concepts to students is one of the most important things. A good teacher can get a student to take notes in class. This way, when the teacher asks a question, th e student will be able to take notes and be able to answer the question quickly.The student should be able to meet the teacher and talk with the teacher. The teacher should be able to interact with the student in order to teach the concepts. The teacher should be able to make a student understand the concepts.The teacher should be able to show a student how to apply concepts in organic chemistry tutor calculus. A teacher should be able to show a student a different way to use a concept or they should be able to show the student how to implement the concept.By teaching a student how to teach organic chemistry tutor calculus, the teacher will be able to teach a student how to effectively communicate concepts to students. A teacher will be able to help a student when they come to them with questions about a concept that a student is trying to get them to understand. Students are more likely to learn better if they understand concepts in the classroom environment and the teacher should be able to give a student that knowledge.All the concepts in organic chemistry tutor calculus should be used in everyday life. This is where the learning process begins and where the concepts are used. Once the concepts are used in everyday life, the student should be able to perform at a professional level.
