hi everybody
does anyone here happen to have Serial Experiments Lain English subtitle ?
Hi guys
i took a placement exam at an English institution and i remembered why i hate these institutions so much and why i never went to one
There was this guy, the interviewer, who could easily see that I'm proficient in English but he acted like I'm not good enough for their toefl classes and wanted me to attend another class to get ready for the toefl one
!he asked me some really general questions like "tell me about yourself", i introduced myself and he said that's it? that's not enough! then he asked me about my university and again i didn't have much to tell
"well i can't go on and on about myself or my university it doesn't mean that I'm not good with English, i just don't know what to say, so i asked him to be a little more specific with his questions, but he responded: "you can't pass unless you talk
!anyway he asked me some more questions and i think he was really trying to show that i don't know anything, that he's much better
i remember two things which he considered grammar mistakes, I'm not really good with grammar but I'm pretty sure about these ones
he asked me about my final exams and i said i think i was pretty good at this particular exam
and he said "was or were" and i was like: well of course "was" but he shook his head like I was wrong
then he asked me: what will you do if i give you 100 million
and my response was:if i had that much money i would go on a journey around the world
and again he said "would"? are you sure about that? i wanted to say :"yea I'm effing sure" but i didn't
.so yea whenever i go to these institutions i come across some stupid guy that makes me hate the place in the first 10 minutes
i really had high hopes for this one but unfortunately it turned out to be like the rest of them
I don't know if it's just my luck or other people had similar experiences too, if you had please share your story it'll make me feel better about my luck
?p.s: i forgot to mention the guy accent, it was fake, pretentious, and really hard to understand, i wanted to tell him: what's with the accent? can't you talk like a normal person
but I'm too polite to make this kind of remarks
Actually it does mean that you are good or not...نوشته شده توسط farzan311 [ برای مشاهده لینک ، با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
If you stop talking or don't talk much, how is the guy supposed to know if you can't talk or you just don't have anything to talk about؟
That's the thing with these exams... You have to show them that you can talk as long as you want so that they can assess your grammar and speaking in practice...
That's why many people prepare answers for general questions like this one so that they can talk...
You should never stop talking unless the guy interrupts you... That indicates your level of proficiency...
Talking shows your conversation skills, your vocabulary, your grammar, your speaking and pronunciation...
That's how they figure out if you're any good or not...
This was my mistake, too... I didn't talk much and scored 11 out of 20 the first time I took a placement exam!

Hello
this problem also can be seen in ielts exam because , unfortunately, its examiners are nowadays iranian guys who think they are god in english. when they meet somebody who acts really perfect in english skills , they jealously try to show that he/she is not good .
in your case, two reasons can be considered. firstly, such institution , just try to keep their business. so , they want only to fill empty classes. for instance, if you are a upper-intermediate student but because of the fact that intermediate class need one student to be full, they say that you are intermediate. secondly, as I mentioned in the first paragraph, they are jealous , they do not have an eye to see someone who speaks english good.

favorite topics.

My professor apparently was an ielts examiner, he's the kind of guy who always says: "no you're not quite right" and tries to give a better answer than you and sometimes he just paraphrases your answer and says you should say it like this
(i hope he doesn't see this cause if he does I'll get a zero next semester from him)
and i think you're right cuz nobody was signing for the toefl classes and i wasn't even sure if they had them i was accepted for the passages two class, i took a look at its book and i can say i knew it all, so attending that class was a complete waste of time for me
