easy paths to acquiring knowledge or expertise, and that the only way to truly learn
something is through hard work, study and practice. Today we are going to answer the
question “How to study?”, give necessary tips for organizing learning, have a look on
Educational system in Great Britain, learn new vocabulary and do some practical
exercises that can improve your listening, reading, speaking and writing skills. Let’s
start from Listening comprehension.
3. LISTENING (Аудіювання).

виконання завдань Додатку 2).
Good morning. Today I’m going to talk about how to study. Now, you probably
think you know all about that, right? You’ve been studying for years. And I expect
some of you are fantastic at studying, really organized and good at concentrating. But
there’s always room for improvement, and your exams aren’t far away, so these tips are
for all of you.
Right, so, what’s the best way to study? Well, first of all, it’s a good idea to have
some kind of plan or timetable. This could be for the week or a longer revision
timetable for an exam, from one month to six months. Yes, if you’re studying for an
important exam it’s important to think long term. Draw up a timetable, but revise it
often. If it’s not going to plan, you may have to rethink it.
 8

Next, think about your environment. Make sure the place where you are going to
study is comfortable with enough light, air, etc. Not too hot, not too cold. Make sure
there are no distracting noises around, such as television. If you think you concentrate
better listening to music, experiment and see if it’s really true. Some people really do
seem to work better with music in the background, especially classical music, but for
many people it spoils their concentration. However, if you have to work near a TV, you
might have to use headphones to play music to drown out the sound of the TV. In this
case, find out what kind of music works best for you, maybe something without words.
By the way, you might think you work fine with the TV on, but, again, experiment. You
might be surprised at how much better you work away from a TV. Oh, and the other
thing is the internet, text messages, Twitter, Facebook, etc. Forget about all of that while
you’re studying. No, really, you can ignore it for an hour or so; it won’t be the end of
the world if you don’t reply to a message immediately.
Right, planning breaks. Plan your study periods in chunks with regular breaks.
Many people recommend half an hour of concentrated study, then a ten-minute break.
But you can adjust this to suit you. If you study for too long at a stretch your mind will
work less effectively, so be careful. In your short break, you can give yourself a treat,
such as a cup of green tea. I wouldn’t advise a chocolate bar as a treat – a sugar rush is
not great for concentration.
OK, so next let’s think about what you do when you’re studying. Some people
just read through their notes or textbooks and underline in pencil or highlight important
bits. If this works for you, fine, but I’d suggest that it’s better to write notes of some
kind, so your mind is processing the information more. This way you are also producing
material which will be useful for last-minute revision. I don’t recommend very last
minute revision, by the way, but we’ll come back to that later.
Have a look at these examples of student notes. Which do you think are
best? The first person has written important phrases at random, the next has a table with
clear headings and boxes with notes, the next has summaries, and the last one has mind
maps: you’ve got the main topic in the circle, then lines coming off the circle attached
to subcategories, then more lines to further details. Mind maps are great for showing the
 9

connections between different bits of information. They seem to work in the same way
the brain works. So what do you think? To me, the first one wouldn’t be very useful to
come back to and use in the future. But the others are all fine – it depends on your
personal preference. Mine is for mind maps. I would suggest using colours, though, and
even little drawings. They can make things much more memorable.
Obviously, when you are studying, the first thing to think about is whether you
understand the information, and the second thing is how you are going to remember it.
Let’s look at some more ways of making information more memorable …
Додаток 2
Check your understanding: true or false Circle True or False for these
sentences.
1. The students will be taking exams soon. True False
2. A revision timetable could be from one to six weeks. True False
3. No one can really concentrate properly with music on. True False
4. You should try to forget about the internet, text messages, Twitter, Facebook,
etc. while you're studying. True False
5. You should try not to have a break until you really need one. True False
6. Underlining or highlighting your notes is better than writing more notes. True
False
7. Mind maps are good because they mirror the way the brain works. True False
8. The most important thing is to remember the information. You don't have to
understand it. True False
c) Group work. (Робота в групах)
Teacher: According to the text and your own opinion, write tips how to study or
how to behave during the studying. Present your ideas to the whole audience. You have
5 minutes.
(Студенти розподіляються на 2 групи, за 5 хвилин мають написати
підказки, відповідно до тексту та власного досвіду, як правильно спланувати
та організувати процес навчання. Потім презентують свої ідеї аудиторії,
 10

спільні ідеї обох груп підкреслюються та виокремлюються найбільш важливі

з них).

4. READING (Читання)
Teacher: Today we are also going to speak about schools in Great Britain, about
the school subjects children do at school, about the exams they take and about some
school rules. There many schools that differ from ours. It will be rather interesting for
you to read about them.
What do you know about schools in GB? May you’ve watched films, read some
articles? Some pupils express their points of view.
Group work. (Студенти залишаються в групі та отримують завдання
прочитати інформацію про систему освіти у Великій Британії).
Read the text and try to work out the meaning of underlined words. Now we will
read about education and types of schools in GB in details.
Додаток 3
Group 1. Primary and secondary school in Great Britain. (Завдання для
групи 1 – Початкова та середня освіта у Великій Британії).

Nursery school – a school for young children of two or three to five years of age,
where children learn such things as numbers, letters, colors, etc., and may begin to read
and write.
Kindergarten – a school or class for young children usually age 5.
 11

Infant school – a school for children aged 5 to 7 or 8. At infant schools reading,

writing and arithmetic are taught for about 20 minutes a day during the first year,
gradually increasing to about 2 hours in the last year. By the time children are ready for
the junior school they will be able to read, write, do simple addition and subtraction of
numbers.
Junior schools – a school for children aged between 7 and 11. At junior school
there are set periods of arithmetic, reading, composition. History, Geography, Nature
Study, Art and Music, Physical Education, Swimming are also on the timetable.
Primary school – a school for children between 5 and 11 years old in England
and Wales, often divided into an infant school and junior school.
Secondary school – a school for children between the ages of 11 and 16 or 18,
above the level of primary education.
Secondary modern school – a school for children over the age of 11 who are not
expected to go on to higher study later. Although most children go to comprehensive
schools now, there are still some secondary modern schools.
Comprehensive school – a school for pupils over the age 11 which teaches
children of all abilities. This system was introduced in 1965 and largely replaced the old
system of grammar schools and secondary moderns, which took pupils depending on
whether they had passed an exam called the eleven-plus (11+). Over 80% of British
pupils now attend comprehensive schools. At 16 students in England and Wales take
GCSE examinations (the General Certificate of Secondary Education). At 18 some
students take A-level examinations, usually in two or three subjects.
Grammar school – a school for children over the age 11, who are specially
chosen to study for examinations which may lead to higher education.
Додаток 4
Group 2. High school and university education in Great Britain.
(Завдання для групи 2 – Старша школа та вища освіта у Великій Британії).

Sixth form college – a British state school for students over the age of 16. Some
young people prefer to go to the college because they feel it gives them more freedom
 12

than an ordinary school. A college is a place where people go for more advanced in
education after school, especially in a particular subject or professional skill.
Polytechnic=poly – a college of higher education, similar to a university,
providing training and degrees in many subjects, especially those which prepare people
for particular jobs in science, industry etc.
University – a place of education at the highest level, where degrees are given.
Bachelors Degree – the general name for the first degree, most commonly a BA
(Bachelor of Arts) or BSc (Bachelor of Science).

commonly an MA or MSc.
Doctorate – the highest academic qualification. This usually carries the title PhD
(=Doctor of philosophy).
