How can you use critical thinking more? Listen to the podcast to find some tips.

-------------------------

In English exams like the IELTS test, there are speaking or writing questions that require critical thinking skills. If you feel weak in this area, you’re not alone. Many people do. The reason is that critical thinking is challenging, and this isn’t helped by the fact that not all education systems or schools focus the same energy on developing such skills. So what does it mean to think critically, and how can you do it more often?

***What is critical thinking?***

There are many different aspects to critical thinking. It may be about using your knowledge to predict what consequences different actions will have. It may be about looking at information and then forming opinions or reaching conclusions. It may also be about understanding when some important information is missing, and being able to gather the extra information that you need. In your work life or student life, these skills are vital for finding solutions to problems. If you have them and can present your analyses to other people effectively, you will be a valued member of any forward-thinking team.

---------------------------

If you want to work on your critical thinking with a qualified, experienced teacher, and to practise applying it when speaking or writing, please get in contact with me or book a class.

The Chinese 4 tones must be the most difficult part for most students. but it is also the most important part for Chinese language learning, a little change of the tones will change the meaning of the sentence, for example, wǒ wèn nǐ means I ask you, but if you say wǒ wěn nǐ, it will be I kiss you, that’s why we need to focus a lot on learning tones,  in this episode I will show you some useful tips to remember the tones quickly.

We love to proudly wear clothes with a cool fashion label - it says something about who we are. However, we shouldn't read too much into a fashion label, in other words, imagine the brand name defines us literally, particularly if it has a ridiculous name! I did see a printing mistake on a tshirt once, that said "Foodball" instead of "FooTball"!
