She's the kinda person you'd never want to hurt !
Thanks for the video. It was very well explained, all clear. I wish my teachers had explained so clearly in school. Greetings from Argentina!
You're welcome. Have a good weekend!
I welcome the brotherly love. :)
Thank you for checking out the new lesson. Regards!
Thank you ma'am for this video. But I had some questions. I am an 11th grader in Bangladesh, now I want to pursue my studies in The US. So, Can I continue my high school in the US from 11th grade? Or I need to start from the 9th grade? Waiting for your kind reply.
Warm greetings to you and Abdulfattah! I wish I could include individual greetings to everyone, but there are too many requests for me to meet in my regular lessons. Perhaps in the future I will come up with a format that allows me to address individuals on camera. In any case, I am very glad you two are visiting my channel, and I thank you for the kind support. Best wishes!
thank you
I appreciate your kind support. Thank you!
Have a good weekend!
That's a good suggestion. Thank you. I'll note it for the future. Indeed, there are many "small" topics that need to be covered so everything makes sense in conversation. Grades are confusing to talk about because each country has its own system. In the U.S. there are quite a number of different grading scales used.
Regards!
I'm very glad to hear this. At least two people asked me about education in the U.S. this summer, so I felt it was a useful topic to address. I think also think it's good listening practice to process all this information and compare and contrast it to systems you know in other countries. Thanks for posting your comment. Kind wishes!
We called Middle School "Junior High" and it was 6th, 7th, and 8th grades. Thank you Jennifer for this lesson.
Very glad to hear this. Thank you for commenting. Regards!
@Mario Noviello Finding a job after college depends on many factors: What did you major in? What college did you go to? What city are you in? Did you do an internship or some other kind of project related to the field?
Hi pls madam Jennifer I want to have aprivate talk with you .this is my email
abuobashir@gmail.com
Thank you for the great job keep it up.
I'm glad you liked it. Have a good week!
How can I thank you?! Your pronunciation is so clear and ....thanks for the subtitles! I can understand every single word you say because you speak so slowly and clearly but, knowing that subtitles are there, makes me feel...safer. I am from Torino, I adore your language and listening to you really helps me. THANKS! GRAZIE! Mirella
Thank you for watching this lesson, too. :)
Thank you so much for explaining each level of the US education system clearly. I have been searching for this info for a few days. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! If you're on a PC, there are review quizzes on my website. The links should be in the video description.
It's interesting and useful to note similarities and differences.
Regards!
Ok now I can understand from where India got the idea of this education System
It's interesting to compare and contrast systems.
@@Englishwithjennifer He was referring to new education policy of India.
I must thank you so much, teacher Jennifer. 2 days ago I used your video lesson about "phrasal verbs" for my class, (pupils aged between 14 and 17 y.o.). It was very interesting and motivating...
Hello. I am very happy to hear that the lesson was successful. Please remember that many of my videos have links to WordPress posts. Look in the video descriptions. I have teachings tips and activity handouts on my blog. Regards!
Thank you for the positive feedback. I hope you'll also try the exercises on my website. Regards!
Hello! I'm glad you watched my video. Thank you. Would you like to write a few sentences about the system of Education in England? Do you have grades or forms? How many? Is your school day 6 hours long? I have a son about your age. He has at least an hour of homework each night (math, reading, writing, spelling) plus monthly projects, like a book report. Is your workload similar? American school kids keep busy with after-school activities. Is it the same for you? Kind wishes to you! :)
Hello. Please visit my website. First, there are Study Tips. Second, there are two sets of vocabulary videos: Everyday Vocabulary and Word of the Day. That second collection will teach you what to focus on when you're learning new words: pronunciation, spelling, and the grammar (part of speech and common phrases the word appears in). Good luck. You can ask questions about new words on the forum on my website. :)
Спасибо большое! Thank you for the kind support. Всего хорошего! :)
Thank you so much for being such a great teacher. I love how clearly you speak. Keep doing this. The topics of your lessons are really helpful and interesting. Thanks! :)
I'm happy I can teach here and that you are learning. :)
I have a few more topics I wish to cover in Language Notes before I turn my attention back to punctuation and other more traditional language topics. I hope you'll browse through all my playlists and use the exercises I've been creating on my website.
Regards!
Yes, I went to junior high, too. When I did research for this lesson, I discovered that "middle school" has mostly replaced "junior high" in the U.S. today. I went to preschool and kindergarten at different schools. Then I went to "grade school" and it had two buildings: an elementary building and a junior high. After 8th grade, I went to high school in the city. I hope you'll try out the exercises on my website. Regards!
That was really well explained and absolutely clearer than any ones. Thank you for updating and it helped my understanding about the US system of education.
You're most welcome! :)
Then I succeeded. Hooray! I hope you'll try the quizzes on my website for extra practice. A new lesson is almost ready!
I appreciate the time you take to answer our questions. Have a great day!
Hello. I may turn my attention back to pronunciation later this year. There are request for other topics in this series I'd like to address first. Also, I promised to finish the series on punctuation in the fall. Please feel free to visit the community forum on my website and post specific questions. For more advanced pronunciation, I recommend EnglishwithStacy. Good luck to you!
Hi, Jennifer!
I just wanted to thank you for this very useful video. It came right in time as here in Algeria we have a whole unit dedicated to "Educational Systems Around the World". The American one covers a big part of this unit. Through out this unit students have to study and compare different educational systems. So, any kind of material is welcome.
Thanks again Jennifer for all the efforts you consent for the sake of education.
Take care!
it's a good teacher who understands people who will help me to build a languge english
Yes, there's just too much to cover in 10 minutes or less. I could have gone into more detail about colleges and universities, but time was already tight. I also felt that a bachelor's and a master's degree were more common than an associate degree from a community or junior college, so I gave those priority. I'm glad that you got something out of it. :)
This vid offers a clear, simple and valuable information.
Well done JenniferESL you cleared out my questions
Glad it was helpful! You may like this one as well. ua-cam.com/video/uKkX47kNSWc/v-deo.html
Hello. You can use the Study Tips on my website. I offer suggestions for independent study. Also, there are additional resources there from tongue twisters to vocabulary videos. I have different playlists on UA-cam so that people can choose the topics they need most. Regards!
Hopefully, one day you'll be able to visit. Until then, make use of all the wonderful opportunities there are online. Feel free to ask questions and visit my website for more ideas, practice, and resources.

Hello! Colleges and universities both have 4-year undergraduate programs, and both can also offer graduate degrees. As I understand, universities can have colleges within them, so they tend to have large campuses. Many 4-year colleges are small "liberal arts" colleges. Universities might offer a broader range of subjects to study. Universities also tend to have larger sports programs (especially for American football and basketball). Again, there are good universities and colleges in the U.S.
so helpful thank you Jennifer , you have made teaching this to my ACCESS ( program ) students in Tunisia so easy . Thanks a lot
you've been such a help
Thanks prof Jennifer your explanation helps me a lot in my revision for exams thanks again ^^
@Nestor Dario Martinez Gutierrez Good question! I'm not sure. Well, one can have a PhD in linguistics, for example. Did that person study philosophy? I don't think it's necessarily a requirement. Then again, in a liberal arts program, philosophy is often a basic requirement for certain majors. I took Philisophy 101 as an undergraduate in my first or second year. My major was not declared yet, but I was studying languages and I was planning to become a teacher. Wish I could be of more help. :) Thanks for watching and good luck with your report.
It was great ! Simple and fast - this is what I need :D Thank you very very much :)
Interesting names to bring up. I think the challenge today is to work within the system and allow for education to include the teachings given at home. Home schooling isn't possible for every family, but that doesn't mean parents cannot be actively involved in their children's education. Here's to curiosity, competition, and the freedom to question! I wish children everywhere a good education. Cheers!
I like the way you teach. Thank you for all the information
I'm from India, I have little bit problem in understanding English but you are speaking so politely as I got everything. Thanks a lot..
You are most welcome. Here are all my videos. www.englishwithjennifer.com/students/yt-videos/
Quick note to help, okay? The question should read:
Do you know what opportunities there are in the U.S. for those who have studied 7 or more languages?
So happy to hear the topic is very relevant to your classroom studies! I hope you'll also try the exercises on my website.
Good luck with your studies. Three cheers for education!
Regards!
I enjoy your videos very much!! I've been learning a lot from you. :)
I don't have a playlist that specifically focuses on listening skills. You can visit my website for recommended resources. One popular site with quality listening exercises is ESL-lab(.com). Good luck to you!

thanks Jennifer, your videos help me to pass my final exam of social studies!!!
That's super! Congratulations, Eliana. :)
Hello. You can ask someone, like Mr. Duncan, about education in the U.K. I couldn't speak with any authority about that. Here in the U.S. colleges tend to be smaller than universities. Universities can be made up of colleges. They also may have more programs. Universities also usually have much larger sports programs (American football, basketball, etc.) I didn't want to feel lost at a large institution. I preferred the community atmosphere of a small liberal arts college. :)
These videos are useful for me. Thank you, Jen!!!
You're very welcome. I hope you'll also use the exercises on my website to review. Regards!
Hello. I have some videos on the Chinese site see2know. More will be uploaded there in the future. You can also download and share my videos for free with those children in your hometown. Kind regards to you all! Hope you'll also visit my website. :)
Hello. You'll need an official translation of your transcript(s). Part of the admissions process will include demonstration of proficiency in English. You can locate the school(s) with the program you need and contact their admissions office for guidance. (Note: bachelor's degree - - bachelor of arts, bachelor of science) Good luck!
Wow, Jennifer, I have always had doubts about this and as EFL teacher, in Brazil, I often had to try to explain this to them, but I had never seen, read or heard a more clear explanation. Thank you so very much !

how calm you are, this is very helpful. Thanks, ma'am
My pleasure. Thank you for watching this older lesson. 😊
Thank you so much! I didn't knew all of this and it's help me alot.
You're very welcome!
Hi, Jennifer! you can be sure. I do your exercises, almost, every day, and for this I'm grateful a thousand times. (I mean if the English system of education is the same as American one). ciao
The system in the U.K. is different. You can ask my colleague Vicki Hollett about that. She's British. You'll find her here on UA-cam. :)
Very helpful. I'm practicing my pronunciation by reading the subtitle along with you (y) Please! make more videos like this
+Youssef Osse That's great. All my playlists are here. www.englishwithjennifer.com/youtube_videos.html Have you tried working with my Oral Reading Fluency series or the Fast Speech Challenge?
Big thanks Jennifer I'm so great , Im from Thailand and learning English from your VDOs it's helps my English to better.
I'm glad you're learning with me! Thank you for watching.
(You can say, "They help me improve my English.")
thank you so much! i've always wanted to understand the education system and i red a lot of articles but i still did'nt understand it :) I'm happy that i finally have a overview of the system!
Happy everything is clearer!
Since I'm not one of those gifted people who are proficient in several languages, I couldn't tell you much about that! I wish I knew 7 or 8 languages very well. :) In any case, a multilingual person (polyglot) could work as an interpreter or translator. There could be opportunities in international business or foreign affairs. I could also see the advantages of knowing all those languages while working in tourism. The cruise line industry, for example, might be a possibility. Good luck to you!
Thank you Jennifer u r great we are getting a lot of ur classes.You shed light on great things I like Language note and we appreciate ur effort Thanks a lot.
You are a great teacher! I like the way you do the presentation! THX
Thank you for the kind words. Have a wonderful day! 😃
Thank you Jennifer, I always had asked myself about the Education System in the USA. and now I can make the differences with our system. Also I want to tell you that I have learned a lot English through your Videos.. Best regards from South America.

Hello Matteo. I'm so glad the information is relevant. Regards from Boston!
Excellent for my ESL high schoolers! You saved me ten minutes of my voice :-) THANK YOU!!!
Hi Cara. I'm very happy this video shared the information your students needed. :) Happy teaching!
Nice to hear from a real person online :-) I played it for them today and made up a fill in the blank worksheet to accompany it, so they would be engaged and use both their listening and writing skills. Quite useful, thank you!
Great idea, Cara. FYI: For this series, I created some supplemental materials. See this link: englishwithjennifer.wordpress.com/2013/07/19/education-about-education/ (slides, handout). There are also some exercises here: englishwithjennifer.com/students/interactive-exercises/ (Scroll down to "Miscellaneous.") You could encourage use of the interactive exercises for review. Take care!
Great lesson Teacher Jennifer. Very useful. Thanks so much.
Hello Jennifer! Thank you again for your support. I've already bookmarked your ELT blog on WordPress,. I'm really looking forward to learning more from you. Greetings from Brazil!

I'm very glad to here this has helped, Cristina. Please follow the link to my ELT blog on WordPress. I have a number of suggestions for the classroom. Also, students can use my interactive exercises on my website for additional practice. Regards!
this was very interesting to hear summed up. I don't live in the US and sometimes certain parts of the education are mentioned in movies and we - people in e.g. europe - get confused :-) thx for the great explanation!
I study in middle school. This came to my examination and I passed successfully. Thank you! 😊❤️

Thank you very much for this wonderful video, it really helps to understand the subject. In my view, you present the information very professionally!
I'm happy this was a useful lesson, Olga. Kind wishes to you!
Jennifer, I was also wondering if there is a free higher education in America? If not, what fee do universities/colleges usually charge? What is the system of the entrance exams for the citizens of the country and for foreigners? Could you please give at least a short answer to these questions. I have a test tomorrow, I think I might need it. Thank you :)
Hi. I believe some states offer free education at the state universities. However, in general, college isn't free. 4-year programs can cost well over one hundred thousand dollars. Top schools are very expensive. State schools are less expensive, but still not exactly cheap. Community colleges are the most affordable options. Many apply for scholarships and financial aid. Are you asking about entrance exams to colleges? We have a standardized test that high school students take. It's called the SAT. Usually you also have to write essays, and for more elite schools there are interviews.
JenniferESL Thank you for your answer! So SAT is both the school graduation test and an entrance exam to most colleges in combination with the essay?
You don't have to take the SAT to graduate from high school. Colleges/universities need your score when they review your application. Each school sets its own range of what's required. The stronger the school, the higher the minimum score. SAT scores are important, but the essays and interviews carry more weight in the end. A student also needs a strong academic record. Schools will look for a minimum GPA (grade point average).
You're welcome! Thanks for being the first to comment.
Very clear explanation 🎉. Thank you so much ❤
You're welcome! 😊
