#Opinion by Ip Kin-yuen 葉建源 | "Now that Liberal Studies needs to be 'retitled', please don’t tell me the Bureau is looking for a sponsor, then going to rename it as 'XXX Liberal Studies'. If this is really the case, potential sponsors will queue up for it, as it is a compulsory subject for all senior secondary school students! Of course, I ‘ve been kidding. The truth is the actual English name of the commission is Committee on the Renamed Subject. Rename simply means giving another name. It has nothing to do with 'title'."

"通識科要「重新冠名」,難道是要找一個贊助商,重新命名為「XXX通識科」嗎?如果這是真的,作為一個全港高中生都要修讀的必修科,競逐的贊助商一定不少!這當然是開玩笑,事實並非如此,委員會的英文名字叫Committee on the Renamed Subject,所謂Renamed,只是簡簡單單的重新命名而已,何來「冠名」的意思呢?"

english course for secondary students 在 thefamily.uk Facebook 的最佳貼文
I’ve received a few questions from students and teachers about my e-learning experience since lockdown. Well, I’m not sure about other schools in the UK, but for my school, we use a variety of means for our online learning: live lessons, set work, and Internet websites. For your information, I’m currently in Year 8, which is the second year of secondary school. Things might be different in other years, but I’ll talk about our e-learning for Year 8.
Our online learning is exactly the same as a 9am-4pm normal school day, from registration until the end of the day, with 8 periods and the same timetable, except we do it all at home. The subjects we’ve done through online learning are English, Religious Studies, History, Biology, Maths, Latin, Drama, Art, French, Physics, Design and Technology, Geography, Music, Chemistry, and Sports. Some were through live lessons, and other times, we were set work, where we had to work and then submit it digitally at the end of every lesson. And of course, we have break and lunch at normal times.
For live lessons, we’ve been using an app called Zoom, which is widely used by other schools and universities. Each session lasts for 40 minutes, and there are different things both the teacher and the students can do. If it’s required, you can turn on your webcam, or just have the mic on. There is an option to mute the mic, so not everyone is talking over each other at the same time. And what’s really useful is that you can share your computer screen with others, so you can put up notes, a question, or anything else you need pupils to see.
In terms of set work, we’ve been using Google Classroom most of the time. That’s where teachers can set assignments, post announcements, and ask questions. We’ve also been set work on Firefly, our school’s intranet system.
For Maths specifically, we’ve had live lessons on Zoom where the teacher shared their screen with us so we could see the notes and answer questions. Also, we were set work on a website called MyiMaths, where the teacher can set tasks related to specific topics. This could also be the case for other subjects, such as languages, where you could be set tasks on websites like Duolingo etc.
Personally, I find that the live lessons are the most successful for introducing new topics or going over more difficult work, because the teacher is there to explain the work to you, and if you’re stuck, you can ask them a question. However, set tasks work just as well if the work is more straightforward.
Hopefully, this little bit of my e-learning experience could be useful for both students who want to know more about what e-learning is like, and for teachers who want to create an ideal work environment for online school. If you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. I’d be more than happy to share about my e-learning experience.
Stay safe,
Omar Mukhtar

💯 All JC students taking GP *ALERT* Imma share a cheat code - With proven effective results transformation + conducive study area with free flow snacks and 24/7 PIN code access!
Of course these are just little thoughtful and sweet gestures Casandra provides at her own expense for her students, the REAL DEAL here is the results, you can see testimonials on her website from students and parents over her 8 years of experience in giving tuition services 👍🏻
A lot of her students went from failing or borderline fail, to STRAIGHT As or distinction for GP 💯💯💯
And when she tells me about her students, she tried to keep it professional but i could see her brimming with thankfulness and passion that she knows the way to help her students by tackling GP with her very own step-by-step methods, in order for her students to take all the points!!! It’s like her proudest achievement when her students improve in GP results 😭 And i haven’t met someone with so much enthusiasm in what they do for a while now, now i’m introducing that person to you guys - Tuition teacher Casandra from @gptuitioncasandra ❤ I almost couldn’t tell if she was telling me about her students or her kids (she doesn’t have any lah) becox the way she shows me their results is how i show people Meredith and Amelia’s milestones 😂 You know those overzealous parents like that 😂
She invited myself and #HeYurou to experience a very very simple crash course of how her teaching style is. She uses a lot of creative material and make reference using pictorial to help Yurou understand and remember better 😍
Super duper salute becox if it’s me i confirm no such patience i don’t know how those parents do it if without tuition teachers! It’s legit 1 hour plus just to coach them how to write a good short story!!! 😱 Not looking forward to my kids reaching that stage. HAHA.
Yurou was very happy with her short story written with help from Cas and she had enjoyed the class entirely cox she kept telling everyone in the family about it after! Cas takes in P6 students for PSLE English and Secondary School students for O Level English as well! So feel free to enquire!
Also, when i chit chat more with her off re
