A dairy of a computer mouse

Each single day I wake up and spend my time with doing nothing. But I’m the most convenient equipment that you may have in working with computer. I’m existing in order to make your technology process go easy and fast. I’ve heard that there is another technology which name is called “Touch screen”, but I can assure you that I can be better than “Touch screen”. My owner uses me when she comes back home from her studies. The main thing she does with the computer is her usual study materials, diagrams to make in order to comprehend, playing games, etc. I’m her close friend, and I try to help her with any of my functions. I’m becoming bored when she is not with me. I understand that she needs to be at her lessons, but sometimes I can’t stand that. Anyway, this cannot be the reason for me to be sad of her, right? I hope that she will come home earlier today and cover me with her warmly hand.

My impressions about preparing for and taking IELTE tests

Usually day before testing I spend the night by cramming. I know that it’s not effective, but it helps me somehow. As it is said in the book of Study skills, chapter 11: “you should start studying for the final exam on the first day of class”. It is quite right. But if you don’t understand the lesson or idea, you won’t be able to comprehend the whole material itself and you’ll fail the exams. My impressions about preparing for and taking IELTE tests were unusual for me. At the beginning when I took my first quiz from linguistics, I thought that I will fail it. Thanks God that this incident didn’t happen. I mean, it was good for the first time. The most effective method we have discovered with my friends was questioning each other according to the material. It can help students to remember what was covered in the class. There is test anxiety that distracts student from the test. Anxiety can harm the student, in order to avoid anxiety you should control your thoughts. If you don’t control them, anxiety may occur. So try to concentrate on the test, think about positive things, try to be in a good mood, feel yourself comfortable. Because each time when the students know that they will have a test they cannot concentrate. The fear won’t allow them to feel themselves comfortable and concentrate on the test. So, students if you believe in yourself and think that you know the material well, you can pass the test better than ever. Wish all IELTE students to pass the FINAL tests well. Thank you for your attention.

The features of my concentration

To create my study environment I start with searching for appropriate study place. Then I plan when to study, at which time, after that I try to think how to learn the material and concentrate on it. The problematic side of implementing this huge material is how to concentrate. When I’m going to concentrate, I attempt to not think about something else and empty my mental foregrounding. With this in mind, I try to find quiet place, turn off everything that will distract me and then focus on that material which was given as a task. Sometimes when I’m becoming lazy, with the help of something or someone I feel ashamed and try to pull myself back to the material. During the process I allow myself to take a break. If you work on the material all day long and don’t have a break, you’ll get tired and you won’t have much power to continue. Try to concentrate, do it step by step and, as a result you’ll concentrate more easily than before.

Time management

Time... Have you imagined your life without time? I mean if the time stops and there is nothing you can do about it. Time is very important invention for humanity. So, we must spend our time usefully. For carrying it out we must make a To Do list and organize it well. Spending your day with doing nothing it’s always waste of time. From my point of view I can tell one thing, DON’T allow yourself to waste your TIME. Try to say yourself NO when you want to play a computer game, lie on a sofa or polish your nails. It is easier when you accomplish your work and after that you should reward yourself even for a small success. Because it can help you to achieve your goals. Before doing or making something, think about your reward that you’re going to obtain. I’m sure that it will help you. I often make my own To Do list and hang it on the refrigerator or write it in my notebook. For this purpose, I put my time in order. With the help of my list I can organize my time well. No matter what kind of method you’re using, don’t worry and never afraid in making any step. Wish you good luck)))

My goals and objectives

The main goal of my life was to apply to this university. Goal, as I understand it, is to hope for something to succeed. Before entering World Languages University I set a goal and made some steps to achieve this goal. First, I tried to study hard and get only “A”s , then after lessons I had an extra lessons to deepen my own knowledge. I couldn't even sleep because of this. I was fed up with studies and wanted to stop with it. But I couldn't stop, I thought if I don’t apply to University, I won’t justify my parents’ trust. So, I said to myself:” be strong, you can handle this and you'll obtain your goal”. Finally I achieved my goal. If you have patience and strive to your goal, you’ll make it. Just one simple thing you should know and remember always is to believe in your goal and feel the moment when you’ll achieve it. Nowadays I have so many goals to obtain that I can’t count them. One of them is to study abroad and be the master of my profession. I hope that I’ll obtain them and be the needed person to my country.

My learning style

According to the test my learning style is visual. I can learn something by looking at it. I mean, when information is presented in a written form or in pictures and diagrams. In learning process I try to use highlighters to remember the word or the whole text itself. Except this, I can advantage some flow charts, wide usage of symbols or drawing things to imagine the exact figure of the word. Often I draw lines with different colors under the main word or idea and it helps me to recollect.
