I managed to get a job working in the local bakery, learning how to make bread and cakes Since I'm studying business, tt's really useful to experience at firsthand how a shop is run and interact with the customers Wow, it sounds really interesting I'd love to come in and try to produce one day Is it nearby? It's about 15 minutes away, which is frustrating because it's too far to walk from my house and I have to drive there Despite the commute, my tutor recommended it to me as it's renowned in certain circles for being a very well-run and successful business (21) Is it a part of the Kingfisher bakers chain? 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING SKILLS 16 No, it's an independent family run store, which is good because they're really supportive and eager to help me with the information I need How you find the theoretical aspect of the school work? I find the practical work far more interesting, but my tutors are really enthusiastic and I get on well with my classmates, which makes the lessons a lot more enjoyable Also, I recently found out that I can complete the theoretical aspects of the course within one year (22), because of the practical experience I'm getting Wow that's great I know, I was so relieved I find the theory pretty hard to understand So I was really worried about taking it for another year Do you get assessed every term or just once at the end of each academic year? No There's an assessment every term, which is great because it really takes the pressure off In the first term it's really relaxed You conduct your own experiments on your topic of choice, and then everyone in your class assesses each other as a practical exercise (23) It's just a shame that practical experience doesn't count towards the grades Yes that's true Anyway enough about me What are you studying? Oh I'm not sure what I want to study yet, but I've been making inquiries about the English language course 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING SKILLS 17 Do you know what career path you're interested in following? Since Spanish is my first language I thought that studying English would be really beneficial if I decided to apply for a job in England I really enjoy art and I'm very creative but I don't think that becoming an artist is a very practical choice I was thinking of using my passion for art in a different way Like working as a curator in an art exhibition, for example (24) Wow that sounds really interesting I think you'd be good at that The problem is that the course is very expensive, as you have to buy materials yourself and they don't offer any scholarships to cover expenses I need to order a catalogue of the courses (25) on offer, so I can see if there are any other modules that might perhaps be cheaper to study Lộ trình Khóa học dẫn dắt Ms.Jenny với lịch học xuyên suốt tháng sau: Day - Listening: Form Completion Day - Listening: Maps/Plan Labelling Day - Listening: Multiple Choice Day - Luyện tập Day - Trả lời Q&A Listening 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING SKILLS 18 Day - Listening: Note Completion Day - Listening: Sentence Summary Completion Day - Listening: Matching/Classifying Day - Luyện tập Day 10 - Video chữa đề Day 11 - Listening: Short answer Day 12 - Listening: Diagram/ Flow Chart Completion Day 13 - Video chữa đề Day 15 - Share Tổng hợp tài liệu học Listening Day 16 - Review kênh Youtube học Listening Day 17 - Reading: T/F/NG Day 18 - Reading: Matching Headings Q&A Reading Day 19 - Reading: Matching Information Day 20 - Luyện tập Day 21 - Reading: Matching Sentence Endings Day 22 - Chữa đề Day 23 - Reading: Short answer Day 24 - Live Q&A Reading Day 25 - Reading: Sentence Completion Day 26 - Chữa đề Luyện tập Day 27 - Reading: Labelling Diagram Day 28 - Reading: Multiple Choice 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING SKILLS 19 Day 29 - Tổng hợp tài liệu Reading Bài đăng group IELTS Fighter – Hỗ trợ học tập, gắn tag #29days Ms.Jenny nha, không thấy thông báo phần tìm theo hastag nha! 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING SKILLS 20 ... sau: Day - Listening: Form Completion Day - Listening: Maps/Plan Labelling Day - Listening: Multiple Choice Day - Luyện tập Day - Trả lời Q&A Listening 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING – READING. .. answer Day 24 - Live Q&A Reading Day 25 - Reading: Sentence Completion Day 26 - Chữa đề Luyện tập Day 27 - Reading: Labelling Diagram Day 28 - Reading: Multiple Choice 29 DAYS SHARPEN YOUR IELTS LISTENING. .. booking under?
