			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left">There’s one thing I can say for sure about myself: I am the most undecided person I’ve ever known. Or at least, I used to be. I still go through a real inner battle every time I have to choose between chocolate and vanilla ice-cream, so you can imagine how hard it must have been for me to opt for a profession that would probably stick with me for the rest of <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/pic-confusion1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-5168" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/pic-confusion1-300x295.jpg" alt="" width="271" height="258" /></a>my life. Actually, it wasn’t that difficult after all. It’s true, in my indetermination, I sort of wanted to be everything at once. I would have liked to have the opportunity to express myself and to be creative and spontaneous that actors have, but at the same time I was never very good at completely letting go of myself, so a job ‘behind the cameras’ would have sounded better. At the same time, I would have liked something more reality-oriented, a profession that could give me the chance to help people, one way or another. I could have gone to Medical School for that, but seeing blood and learning Chemistry were never among my strong points J. However, this need for human interaction never left me and I soon realized that kids were these awesome human beings, with a fascinating imagination and the amazing capacity to still be able to be everything they wanted, as long as they were under the right influence. And I thought, hey, I’d like to be at least a tiny bit of that influence! I’d like to be able to say that, through my work, I helped <em>one</em> person have a better life. And that’s when I decided that I should be a teacher. Because, after all, teaching encompasses all those things that I was dreaming of doing when I was younger and a great deal more. I could make you a list, but I’m still discovering them myself J.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">What about you, guys? How do you cope with this task of choosing a profession, when there are so many options out there? Have you already made up your minds? We’re looking forward to hearing from you J.</p>

Dorim sa va multumim pe aceasta cale pentru participare si pentru numeroasele ganduri frumoase cu care ne bucurati zilnic fiindca <strong>,,</strong><em><a href="http://www.shakespeare-school.ro/concurs.html">Shakespeare School Essay Competition</a> reprezinta o sansa unica de a expune in scris toate ideile, opiniile si sentimentele capabile de a schimba lumea. Este oportunitatea de a dovedi intregii lumi si propriei persoane ca in fiecare dintre noi exista ceva maret.’’ </em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ne bucuram de acest prilej in care impartasim cu voi, asemenea unei mari familii, pasiunea pentru limba engleza, fascinatia pentru cultura britanica si dorinta de a vorbi limba engleza chiar in UK. Noua ni se alatura si <strong><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/2011/02/04/ready-steady-write/">Mircea Neicu</a></strong>, un tanar ALTFEL care a crezut in visul lui iar acum, dupa participarea la Essay Competition 2010, ne trimite gandurile sale, nu din Orsova(orasul sau natal) ci chiar din Marea Britanie, unde studiaza in prezent.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Va intrebati poate cum a reusit <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/2011/01/03/despre-admiterea-in-uk-interviul-la-cambridge-si-etapele-drumului-spre-succes/">Mircea</a> acest lucru? Iata ce ne impartaseste chiar el:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em> ‚,<strong>Shakespeare School Essay Competition </strong>mi-a ghidat ambitia spre un nou viitor academic. Scoala de vara in <a href="http://www.shakespeare-school.ro/cursuri/scoli_de_vara/cambridge_tradition.html">Cambridge</a> mi-a oferit posibilitatea de a descoperi o alta lume si de a imi indrepta privirea si telul catre Anglia. Datorita participarii la concurs si a castigarii premiului, am regasit curajul de a imi depasi limitele si de a aplica la o universitate straina. In momentul de fata, sunt student la o universitate de prestigiu in Marea Britanie si realizez ca mare parte din ce am facut pana in acest moment si din ce o sa fac in viitor este continuarea hotararii mele de a participa la acest concurs.’’</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ce ne impartaseste Mircea despre <a href="http://www.shakespeare-school.ro/inscriere_concurs.html">participarea la acesta competitie</a>? Iata ce va sfatuieste el:</p>
<p><strong> </strong><em> </em></p>
<p><em> ,,</em><strong> Shakespeare School Essay Competition</strong><em> este o provocare, insa nu exista victorie fara risc. Emotiile sunt un proces natural si trebuie folosite spre propriul avantaj. Doresc sa indemn pe toti cei care considera ca au pasiunea scrisului si a limbii engleze sa incerce sa  fie ei insisi, sa nu uite ca orice este posibil cu destula ambitie si sa incerce sa isi dea tot ce au mai bun pentru un viitor maret.’’ </em><em> </em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p>Cu drag,</p>
<p>mult succes tuturor!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Seria Harry Potter: o aventură într-o lume fantastică pentru toate vârstele</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Știu ce o să spuneți: „Am văzut filmele!”. Pentru mine însă filmele nu au egalat niciodată cărțile sau, mai bine spus, nu au înlocuit niciodată cărțile. Pentru mine există doar filme care pălesc în comparație cu cartea sau ecranizări atât de minunate încât completează plăcerea lecturii. <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/girl-reading-book-josh-cleland1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-5152" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/girl-reading-book-josh-cleland1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Așa că astăzi vom vorbi despre fenomenul Harry Potter. Mărturisesc că am descoperit lumea fantastică de la Hogwarts când deja se lansa cea de-a patra carte, Harry Potter și Pocalul de Foc. Cu toate acestea, am fost cucerită de întâmplările imaginate de J. K. Rowling pentru micul ei erou încă de la prima carte. Cum ai putea să nu fi curios să vezi ce se va întâmpla cu băiatul de 11 ani, vrăjitor înzestrat fără s-o știe, forțat să trăiască departe de lumea de care aparține în casa mătușii sale? Mai ales când Harry poartă pe umeri povara „băiatului ales” menit să-l învingă odată pentru totdeauna pe Lordul Voldemort.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/harry-potter2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5154" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/harry-potter2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> Dincolo de clasica poveste în care binele triumfă în final, cartea aduce în prim plan și prietenia strânsă dintre Harry, Ron și Hermione. Este evident pe tot parcursul seriei că Harry nu ar fi reușit fără sprijinul lor. Autoarea chiar se folosește de acest prilej pentru a sublinia că este trăsătura definitorie care îl deosebește de Lordul Voldemort, cu care are atât de multe în comun ca urmare a blestemului care a ricoșat.</p>
<p>Însă, de departe cea mai importantă lecție este cea a sacrificiului de sine, ilustrată atât de Harry în confruntarea finală, cât și de profesorul Plesneală, un aliat devotat și un prieten de nădejde, forțat să joace rolul personajului negativ.</p>
<p>Un aspect deloc de neglijat este că seria poate fi și un excelent mod de a ne îmbogăți vocabularul în limba engleză, întrucât limbajul nu este deloc pretențios, chiar dacă la început, Încuiați fiind, este nevoie de puțină răbdare ca să ne acomodăm la argoul lumii vrăjitorești. Celor care sunt gata să-mi reproșeze că este o carte puerilă le spun doar să fie atenți la semenificația numelor personajelor și la creaturile mitologice pe care Harry le înfruntă pe parcursul seriei. Așadar, lăsați-vă conduși de imaginație și pășiți alături de Harry în minunata lume a școlii de farmece și vrăjitorii.</p>

As promised, I am revisiting the CAE exam and taking each Paper one by one for you to have a better grasp of what it is all about, what is required of you and, most importantly, which are THE STRATEGIES you should have up your sleeve in times of need. <strong>Let&#8217;s make passing an exam fun, not pure torture! <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/aim-high1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5128" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/aim-high1-300x265.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="265" /></a></strong><br />
 </em></p>
<p>This week&#8217;s focus is on <strong>the Reading Paper</strong>! Take a deep breath, and here we go! Do bundle up, it will seem awfully stormy at times&#8230; hopefully, we&#8217;ll be able to turn it into “brainstormy”, for a change!</p>
<p>So, you&#8217;re trying to prepare your Reading Paper. <strong>What exactly are you looking at here?</strong></p>
<p>Well, you&#8217;re looking at <strong>4 parts</strong>, all to be solved in 1h 15&#8242;. Consider it done! Which are the parts in question?, I hear you wondering. One step at a time. We all know that Rome wasn&#8217;t built in a day&#8230; Let&#8217;s take a closer look at <strong>Parts 1 </strong>and <strong>2</strong>, for starters, shall we?</p>
<p><strong>Part 1 &#8211; </strong>This is a multiple choice task. You have to choose one answer out of 4 options. Piece of cake, you might say, but mind you:</p>

<li> Out 	of the four, two will for certain seem just perfect to suit your 	question. Keep in mind, one of those two is the most vicious 	distractor. <strong>It&#8217;s 	all a process of narrowing it down to what&#8217;s true for the text, by 	using arguments given inside the text!</strong></li>
<li> </li>
<li>
<p><strong>Take 	things slowly and logically!</strong> The first step is to read the question and identify a clue in the 	text that points towards one of the 4 options. <span style="text-decoration: underline">Underline 	it</span>. Then, 	make sure you actually got it right and you didn&#8217;t get distracted: 	eliminate the other 3 potential answers. 	It&#8217;s not enough to think of arguments that point towards an option, 	before choosing one 	of the four, find counter-arguments sustained by the text that 	eliminate the other 3 “suspects”.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Pay 	attention! Some of the questions may not even be well-rounded ones. 	Some of them are merely statements that could be continued by any of 	the 4 options below them. Confer with the text at all times! 	Whatever you need is <span style="text-decoration: underline">in</span> the text or underlying it!<strong> Make sure you can sail through it, but also dive into it if you are 	looking for more in depth clues! </strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Think 	of a text as a 3D entity! </strong>It&#8217;s 	got several layers. You know what they say, don&#8217;t judge a book just 	by looking at its cover! Be ready to find clues as to what opinion, 	tone, purpose and attitude are concerned. Don&#8217;t match words in the 	text to those in the options, <strong>match 	the ideas!</strong></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Part 2 – </strong>This is a gapped text. There are 6 gaps in a text and you are given 7 paragraphs. Tricky, right? You can&#8217;t choose simply by means of exclusion. There will always be the odd one out!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/dog-reading1.jpeg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5123" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/dog-reading1.jpeg" alt="" width="258" height="195" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>First, 	read the text as a whole, get in touch with its development. <strong>Go 	with the flow</strong>, 	so to speak.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Then, 	read the fragments. Your mind will have already started to raise its 	suspicions as to which goes where. It&#8217;s time to stop going with the 	flow. <strong>Stand 	your ground! </strong>Whatever 	you suspect should come between two sections of the text needs to 	have a good coherence and a solid cohesion to the larger image. <span style="text-decoration: underline">Coherence</span> means that you <span style="text-decoration: underline">don&#8217;t 	interrupt ideas</span>, 	and <span style="text-decoration: underline">cohesion</span> makes sure that you identify the written proof, the <span style="text-decoration: underline">linkers</span> (a.k.a linking devices).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once 	you&#8217;re done, read the whole text again. <strong>See 	the bigger picture!</strong> If nothing seems fishy, you probably got it right. And, yes, I know 	it sounds like it&#8217;s going to take forever, but do not worry! You 	will get better and faster as you practise.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><strong>In 	addition,</strong> no matter which part you are solving never lose sight of this: <strong>Do 	not panic if you find some words difficult or unknown. Try to deduce 	as much as you can from context, read sentences, not </strong><strong>isolated</strong><strong> words!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Also, keep in mind: <strong>Practice makes perfect! Don&#8217;t throw yourself into the CAE arena without proper gear (strategy and experience). Without it, you are merely a baby in front of a book&#8230; written in Ancient Greek! What chance do you stand?</strong><em> </em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“The voice of parents is the voice of gods, for to their children they are heaven’s lieutenants</em></strong><strong>”- </strong>asternea pe hartie, acum multi ani, Shakespeare.</p>
<p>Astazi va lansez invitatia sa meditam impreuna asupra copiilor nostri si sa ne propunem, din nou, sa fim nu doar mai buni si mai aproape de ei, ci sa o facem si cu intelepciune. Parinti perfecti nu putem fi, dar este de datoria noastra sa ne asumam responsabilitatea si sa cautam ocazii de a deveni parinti mai buni.</p>
<p>O astfel de ocazie a fost pentru mine cand am citit prima data cartea lui Augusto Cury <em>“Parinti straluciti, profesori fascinanti</em>”. A fost ca o revelatie; au trecut vreo 3 ani de atunci, si,cand am redescoperit-o iarna aceasta, am simtit nevoia sa spun tuturor despre ea.  Bucuria vine atunci cand parcurgi paginile cartii, de aceea m-as opri doar la a enumera sfaturile date (pretioase, as adauga eu), fara a le dezvolta. Nu vreau sa va rapesc din placerea de a o citi. Ramane o recomandare, pe care o fac cu mare drag. As vrea sa mentionez ca autorul face o clasificare a parintilor, in buni si inteligenti. Eu cred ca a le imbina pe amandoua ar putea fi chemarea noastra, a parintilor &#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>Parintii buni dau <em>cadouri</em>, parintii inteligenti isi daruiesc <span style="text-decoration: underline;">propria fiinta</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Parintii buni alimenteaza <em>corpul</em>, parintii inteligenti alimenteaza <span style="text-decoration: underline;">personalitatea</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> Parintii buni <em>corecteaza greselile</em>, parintii inteligenti isi invata copiii <span style="text-decoration: underline;">sa gandeasca</span></li>
<li>Parintii buni isi pregatesc copiii pentru <em>aplauze</em>, parintii inteligenti isi pregatesc copiii pentru <span style="text-decoration: underline;">esecuri</span></li>
<li>Parintii buni <em>vorbesc</em>, parintii inteligenti <span style="text-decoration: underline;">dialogheaza ca niste prieteni</span></li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span>Parintii buni dau <em>informatii</em> , parintii inteligenti <span style="text-decoration: underline;">povestesc istorioare. <br />
 </span></li>
<li>Parintii buni ofera <em>oportunitati</em>, parintii inteligenti <span style="text-decoration: underline;">nu renunta niciodata</span></li>
</ul>
<p>Am ales sa inchei cu un poem, care, recunosc, m-a pus pe ganduri… si vi-l propun ca “tema” pentru acasa…<em> </em></p>
<p>If I had my child to raise over again,</p>
<p>I&#8217;d finger paint more, and point the finger less.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d do less correcting, and more connecting.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.<br />
 I would care to know less, and know to care more.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d take more hikes and fly more kites.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d stop playing serious, and seriously play.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d run through more fields, and gaze at more stars.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d do more hugging, and less tugging.</p>
<p>I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d build self-esteem first, and the house later.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d teach less about the love of power,</p>
<p>And more about the power of love.<strong><em><br />
 </em></strong></p>

<div>Dragii nostri, iata-te ajunsi la ce-a de-a patra editie a mult asteptatului <a href="http://www.shakespeare-school.ro/concurs.html">Shakespeare School Essay Competition</a>, devenit deja traditie aici la Shakespeare School!</div>
<div>Pentru participantii din 2012,  Shakespeare School Essay Competition este un prilej de visare si sperante! Exista si tineri pentru care acest concurs este un prilej de a rememora emotii si trairi care i-au schimbat in bine si de care isi amintesc cu drag. Un astfel de exemplu este Ana Monica Popa, eleva a Gimnaziului Carol I, din Calarasi, participanta si  in cadrul  editiei din 2011 a Shakespeare School Essay Competition.</div>
<div>Monica a fost anul trecut castigatoarea uneia dintre cele patru mentiuni oferite de Shakespeare School si iata ce a insemnat pentru ea participarea la Essay Competiton 2011:</div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> ,,Consider participarea la acest concurs o provocare. Eseurile alese trebuie sa fie originale, iesite din comun, tocmai de aceea castigarea unui premiu a fost o realizare importanta pentru mine. Fiind cea mai mica participanta aleasa am avut mari emotii, necrezand ca voi castiga vreun premiu. Cand asta s-a intamplat m-am bucurat nespus de mult. De multe ori ma exprim mai bine in scris, tocmai de aceea acest concurs a ajuns sa-mi fie unul drag la care particip in fiecare an.&#8221;</span></div>
<div>Sfatul Monicai pentru voi, cei care doriti sa participati la editia de anul acesta a Competitiei de eseuri?</div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> &#8221; Ar fi minunat daca </span><span style="font-size: small">t</span><span style="font-size: small">oti tinerii ar participa la acest concurs care necesita multa imaginatie. In acest fel ei ar putea sa-si dezvolte talentul </span><span style="font-size: small">s</span><span style="font-size: small">i sa castige premii de care vor deveni mandri. La orice concurs deseori se intampla sa devii emotionat, iar de cele mai multe ori asta te face sa gresesti sau sa  te exprimi incorect, dar faptul ca la acest concurs etapa finala a </span><span style="font-size: small">inter</span><span style="font-size: small">viului este diferita de ce a  trimiterii  eseului, face lucrurile mai usoare.&#8221;</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> In incheiere va dorim sa amintiti</span><span style="font-size: small"> &#8221;de acest concurs cu drag&#8221; , facandu-va mai increzatori si mai creativi in eseurile scrise.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> Asadar, mult succes tuturor participantilor Shakespeare School Essay Competition 2012! </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: small"> May the best participants win!  :)</span></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/trademar_checklist.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5073" title="The questionnaire" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/trademar_checklist-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="109" height="109" /></a>A învăţa o limbă străină este un proces de durată, care începe cu paşi mici şi pentru care trebuie să depunem un efort considerabil, constant şi consecvent. În felul acesta nu ne vom opri la un simplu nivel mediu şi putem spera că într-o bună zi vom excela. Evident că nu există o reţetă clasică de succes, însă vă prezentăm mai jos cei şapte paşi pe care dacă-i urmăm putem avea încredere că data viitoare când vom vorbi în public în engleză vom fi apreciaţi.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pasul 1:</strong></p>
<p>Să începem cu un mic exerciţiu: imaginaţi-vă că trebuie să vorbiţi în engleză, chiar acum, să continuaţi ceea ce spuneaţi, dar<a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/scared-dog.jpeg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-5078" title="scared-dog" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/scared-dog-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="84" height="84" /></a> în engleză. Vă este un pic greu? Asta pentru că aveţi tendinţa de a traduce din română. De aceea, primul pas este de a încerca să ne detaşăm de română şi să vorbim doar cu cuvintele în engleză pe care le ştim şi să exprimăm ideile cât mai clar cu putinţă.</p>
<p><strong>Pasul 2</strong></p>
<p>Nu învăţaţi cuvintele în engleză prin memorare, ci situaţi-le într-un context, o propoziţie, o expresie, o frază.  Dacă le învăţaţi disparat, vi le veţi aminti extrem de greu sau deloc. De asemenea, dacă le învăţaţi în context, când le veţi folosi, veţi fi siguri că nu doar cuvântul este corect, ci şi întreaga propoziţie. În felul acesta, rapiditatea învăţării gramaticii creşte de patru sau de cinci ori.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/reb971210cln.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5071" title="reb971210cln" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/reb971210cln-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="107" height="107" /></a>Pasul 3</strong></p>
<p>În învăţarea limbii engleze încercaţi să vă folosiţi şi simţul auditiv, nu doar cel vizual. Lucrul acesta presupune o ascultare activă, tot timpul când auzim ceva în engleză, de la melodia de la radio până la profesorul care vorbeşte la curs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pasul 4</strong></p>
<p>Învăţarea limbii engleze este ca un sport, nu contează neapărat cât ne amintim, ci cât de bine o folosim. De aceea învăţarea<a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ChabalaHandball1.gif"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-5070" title="ChabalaHandball" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ChabalaHandball1-150x150.gif" alt="" width="81" height="74" /></a> englezei trebuie să fie mai degrabă văzută ca un antrenament, şi la fel ca la handbal, spre exemplu, trebuie să ştim atât regulile jocului, dar să şi încercăm să fim nişte jucători redutabili. Cu cât ne antrenăm mai mult, cu atât devenim mai buni. Cu alte cuvinte: Repetition is the mother of skill!</p>
<p><strong>Pasul 5</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/pre-teenager-listening-to-music.gif"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5068" title="pre-teenager-listening-to-music" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/pre-teenager-listening-to-music-150x150.gif" alt="" width="80" height="80" /></a>Încercaţi să folosiţi cât mai multe materiale pe care un vorbitor nativ le foloseşte, pornind de la ziare, cărţi, muzică, până la a vă pune telefonul mobil şi Ipod-ul exclusiv în limba engleză. De asemenea, materialele pe care le folosiţi trebuie să vă capteze atenţia şi să vă stârnească interesul!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pasul 6</strong></p>
<p>Încercaţi să vă găsiţi cât mai mulţi prieteni nativi, cu care să comunicaţi atât în scris, cât şi oral. Puteţi folosi fie reţelele sociale de comunicare sau puteţi să menţineţi contactul prin email-uri sau scrisori.  <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SmallGroup_Circle-full-THUMB1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-5067" title="SmallGroup_Circle-full-THUMB" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SmallGroup_Circle-full-THUMB1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="111" height="97" /></a></p>

But, how many of us are actually able to partake in such an event? That’s why Shakespeare School has come up with the perfect solution – to end each Conversation Club module with an English Tea Party!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Friday-Week-1-Afternoon.png"><img style="margin: 10px;float: right" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Friday-Week-1-Afternoon-300x168.png" alt="" width="300" height="168" /></a>Where did we have the tea parties this time around? Well, the Dorobanti branch of Shakespeare School was the site of 6 tea parties last week, and each one of them started and ended with a bang! The English-loving kids bore the freezing weather to make it to the tea parties which started with the tossing of a squeaky dwarf, and continued with other fast and noisy games.</p>
<p>We introduced the world of teas to the children by having a tea-sniffing ceremony where the kids smelled and guessed the different teas. After this, the kids moved on to the highly anticipated event that is drinking fruit tea and eating yummy biscuits. One can still hear some of the children raving about the fruit tea which they proclaimed as absolutely DELICIOUS <img src='http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Saturday-Week-2-Afternoon-2.jpg"></a><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Saturday-Week-2-Afternoon-2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-5036" style="margin: 10px;float: left" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Saturday-Week-2-Afternoon-2-300x168.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" /></a>Besides games, tea and biscuits, we also watched many video clips to find out more about English tea parties. The younger children watched the craziest tea party ever (thanks to Alice in Wonderland), and the older kids watched video clips on how to host an English tea party and how to make the perfect cup of English tea. All the kids learned about the traditions of afternoon tea in England and we also talked about some tea legends. And as mentioned above, the tea parties ended with a bang – that is a food fight in Shakespeare School style.</p>

<p>Ca orice examen, CAE (Certificate in Advanced English) iti testeaza anumite abilitati, deprinderi, cunostinte. In acest caz, iti vor fi testate cunostintele de limba engleza la un nivel avansat, C1 (in Common European Framework si in jargonul marilor universitati care ti-au pregatit un pupitru la ele in amfiteatru). Dar, tot ca orice examen, CAE iti testeaza capacitatea de a lucra eficient contra timp si de a dispune de cateva strategii care sa te trimita direct in A-list. Care anume ar fi aceste strategii? Ei bine, inarmati-va cu rabdare, caci inainte mult mai este.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images2.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5014" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images2.jpeg" alt="" width="259" height="194" /></a></p>
<p>In primul rand, daca te gandesti sa iti incerci destoinicia intr-un asemenea examen, trebuie sa stii ca este unul extrem de complex, cu grad ridicat de dificultate, care nu numai ca nu este, dar nici nu pare <em>piece of cake</em>&#8230; Intr-adevar, cam in acest punct inceteaza a mai fi un oarecare alt examen. <strong>In ce consta? In nu mai putin de cinci probe:</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><strong>Reading</strong>, 	cu 	o durata de 1h 15&#8242;, care la randu-i este alcatuit din alte patru 	parti constitutive.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Writing</strong>, 	cu o durata de 1h 30&#8242;, mai modest ca dimensiune (doua parti), dar 	aprig in ceea ce priveste asteptarile examinatorilor in privinta 	abilitatilor candidatilor de a redacta texte formale in limba 	engleza.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Use 	of English</strong>, 	care dureaza 1h, se desfasoara de-a lungul a cinci parti, 	totalizeaza cincizeci de intrebari si care ne descoase practic 	mintea pentru a afla cat de bine exact stim limba engleza <em>in 	depth</em>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Listening</strong>, 	aproximativ patruzeci de minute, timp in care vom asculta diferiti 	vorbitori, cu diferite accente si ritmuri de vorbire, de la care 	trebuie sa incercam sa intelegem si sa selectam numai informatia 	semnficativa pentru intrebarile care ne privesc infrigurate de pe 	foaie.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Speaking</strong>, 	15 minute, doar 15 minute&#8230; doar 15 minute? Intr-adevar, dragi 	candidati, your fifteen minutes of glory! Doar atat avem la 	dispozitie pentru a impresiona.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Daca ai trecut de lista celor 5 si inca mai ai mintea limpede, te invit sa continuam. Scriam ceva mai sus despre anumite strategii. Propun sa ne oprim asupra catorva dintre cele mai folositoare.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Cum sa iti pregatesti examenul Cambridge CAE?</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images4.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5025" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images4.jpeg" alt="" width="259" height="194" /></a></p>
<p>Iluzia pe care si-o alimenteaza unii candidati este ca, fiind convinsi de faptul ca pregatirea este esentiala, nu stiu cum sa o abordeze. Pregatirea unui examen Cambridge nu inseamna doar rezolvarea unor exercitii de gramatica si conversatii pe Facebook si Skype cu prieteni nativi ale unor meleaguri anglofone. Desiguri ca ele ajuta, dar un examen atat de sistematic precum CAE solicita din partea candidatului aceeasi rigoare.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pregateste-ti proba de Reading:</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>rezolva 	cat mai multe teste de Reading pentru a te deprinde cu structura lor 	si consulta profesorul pentru a-ti adapta strategiile de lectura la 	<strong>formatul 	examenului</strong>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Din 	sutele de cuvinte pe care le citim intr-un test de Reading, numai 	cateva zeci se dovedesc a fi cu adevarat relevante. Subliniaza 	indiciile care te duc la raspunsurile corecte (chiar daca ai aflat 	ca raspunsul tau era gresit dupa ce te-ai consultat cu cheia de 	rezolvare). Nu ceda, cauta explicatia fiecarui raspuns. <strong>It&#8217;s 	not the what, it&#8217;s the why.</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>“<strong>De 	ce?”</strong>, 	ai putea comenta la nota anterioara. Ei bine, pentru ca, la fel cum 	un candidat competent are strategiile lui, asa si examenul se 	blindeaza cu tertipurile caracteristice, numite <strong>distractors</strong>. 	Exact, acele pseudo-indicii pentru care ai fi bagat mana in foc in 	legatura cu un raspuns ce se dovedeste a fi gresit, tocmai pentru 	ca, <em>at a closer 	look</em>, 	exista un altul care se preta mai bine intrebarii respective. 	<em>Distractors</em> ne fac sa ne concentram exclusiv pe gasirea raspunsului, facandu-ne 	sa uitam insa mare parte din intrebare. <em><strong>Keep 	one eye on the clue and the other on the question!</strong></em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Pe 	masura ca te deprinzi cu structura testului si vezi ca raspunsurile 	corecte incep sa nu ti se mai para atat de misterioase, impune-ti o 	limita de timp. In timpul examenului real vei avea in jur de 18 	minute pentru fiecare parte a probei. <strong>Invata 	sa iti gestionezi timpul!</strong></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pregateste-ti proba de Writing:</strong><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images3.jpeg"><br />
 </a></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Obisnuieste-te 	ca, inainte de a scrie orice tip de text, sa iti conturezi rapid un 	plan de idei. Tine minte, nici Napoleon nu pleca la lupta fara un 	plan de bataie. Rigorile sunt ridicate. Asigura-te ca nu repeti idei 	si ca nu te contrazici. Tot ce scrii trebuie sa fie <strong>argumentat 	si justificat in raport cu cerinta</strong>!</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Cand 	incepi sa redactezi textul, imagineaza-ti ca porti un dialog 	imaginar cu potentialul cititor. Imagineaza-ti cum devine nerabdator 	cand scrii ceva interesant si cum casca atunci cand te indepartezi 	de la subiect. <strong>Scrie 	interesant si la obiect!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Dupa 	ce ai terminat de redactat textul, deschide dictionarul, cauta 	sinonime mai complexe, formale, interesante, care sa il faca pe 	cititorul din mintea ta sa spuna “Hats off!”. Ai rabdare insa si 	citeste si contextul dat drept exemplu pentru uzul cuvantului 	respectiv, pentru a nu il folosi impropriu. <strong>Be 	one step ahead of your reader!</strong></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pregateste-ti proba de Use of English:</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Invata 	vocabularul <em>in 	chunks</em>. 	Cuvintele nu sunt elemente izolate, plutind in aer sau in paginile 	de dictionar. Ele sunt folosite in contexte. Tu trebuie sa te 	familiarizezi cu diferite contexte, nu cu diferite cuvinte. O idee 	ar fi sa iti organizezi expresiile nou invatate pe baza criteriului 	de <em>topic</em> (subiect). <strong>Everybody 	works better in a team, and so do words!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Exerseaza 	tipurile de format de exercitiu prin parcurgerea cator mai multe 	teste de Use of English. La inceput, desi tu cu siguranta stii 	expresiile, particulele, structurile care iti sunt cerute, nu o sa 	ti se para clar ca tocmai acea expresie era cea care te-ar fi ajutat 	sa completezi cutare spatiu liber. Deprinde capacitatea de a gandi 	in itemi de examen. <strong>Practice 	makes perfect!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>La 	nivelul examenului CAE se presupune ca esti deja familiarizat cu 	majoritatea notinilor de gramatica a limbii engleze. Dar asta nu 	inseamna ca engleza pe care o folosesti este <em>error 	free</em>. 	Concentreaza-te pe exersarea exceptiilor, a cazurilor particulare si 	a notiunilor avansate pe care inca nu te simti complet stapan/a. 	<strong>Invata 	sa inveti eficient!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Ofera 	atentia cuvenita ortografiei. Nu este nicio legenda: chiar si o 	litera gresita inseamna pierderea punctului. <strong>Ortografia 	nu este un vis urat, ci cheia catre succes!     <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images5.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5060" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images5.jpeg" alt="" width="251" height="201" /></a></strong></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pregateste-ti proba de Listening:</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Obisnuieste-te 	ca, atunci cand rezolvi un test de Listening sa te pui in situatia 	exacta de examen. Asculta fiecare parte de Listening de doua ori. 	<strong>Fii 	propriul tau supraveghetor.</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Nu 	te panica daca vorbitorii de pe inregistrare par a scoate cuvintele 	ca prin mitraliera. <strong>Concentreaza-te 	si selecteaza ce este important.</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Nu 	intra in panica daca nu intelegi unele cuvinte. Incearca <strong>sa 	le deduci din context</strong>. 	It happens to the best of us, not to worry.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Tine 	minte, asculti <strong>de 	doua ori fiecare inregistrare</strong>. 	<span style="text-decoration: underline">When is ever life 	generous enough to give you second chances? Well, the CAE is!</span></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Subliniaza-ti 	informatia relevanta din text inainte ca inregistrarea sa porneasca. 	Ai acest ragaz. Astfel, te asiguri ca iti creezi o harta sintetizata 	si simplificata a sagai de pe hartie. Si, de asemenea, nu risti sa 	pierzi indiciul. Iti va fi imposibil sa citesti pe masura ce asculti 	si sa mai dai si raspunsurile corecte. Vei confunda indiciile cu 	<em>distractors</em>. 	<strong>Fii 	pregatit/a dinainte sa te poti redresa in context chiar daca ai 	ratat un raspuns. </strong></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pregateste-ti proba  de Speaking:<a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images12.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5013" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/images12.jpeg" alt="" width="277" height="182" /></a></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Obisnuieste-te 	cu structura probei si cu gandul ca <strong>vei 	discuta cu un alt candidat</strong> pe care probabil nu il vei cunoaste.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Exerseaza-ti 	<strong>discursul 	elaborat, dar la obiect, care sa te scoata in evident</strong>a, 	dar fara sa para ca incerci intentionat sa il scufunzi pe celalalt 	candidat. <strong>Fii 	afabil!</strong></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Daca 	ai emotii, <strong>exerseaza 	prin a vorbi in fata oglinzii</strong>. 	In momentul in care nu te va mai bufni rasul/ plansul, nu iti va mai 	tremura vocea si vei putea sa iti raspunzi la intrebarile de examen 	coerent si fluent&#8230; Felicitari! Esti pregatit/a!</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Nu 	uita, oricate emotii ai avea, <strong>contactul 	vizual</strong> trebuie mentinut cu interlocutorii (examinatorul sau partenerul de 	comunicare). Vorbeste ca de la egal al egal.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Foloseste 	eficient orice ocazie de a vorbi limba engleza, cum ar fi clubul de 	conversatie cu un nativ</strong>. 	Cu siguranta iti va dezmorti fluenta!</p>
</li>
</ul>
