    Hi teacher! It's great to watch your video because it involves a whole lot of information not only relevant to Cambridge FCE but also relevant to other academic writing,like IELTS and TOEFL.
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi. Should we use the same rule as writing in ielts exam for the first part of the b2 writing test.
    I mean , should we paraphrase the topic , give our own idea in the introduction and begin writing bodies and finish with conclusion

      This structure is a good one and one that I would recommend for any exam. Good Luck!

    Hi! Thanks for your video, it was very informative. Should I use print or cursive when writing my compositions?

      Hi, thank you for your kind words. As for how you write, it needs to be clear and legible, that's all that matters.

    Hello, in the second part I only have to choose between 3 options right? Because I have practiced a lot making the "Review" on part 2, but I dont know if that option is always enable

    • @oxfordenglishnow

      Hi, I have checked the handbook for FCE and it says this:
      In Part 2, candidates have a choice of tasks. Questions 2-4 are general questions, based on a range of topics, such as
      health and fitness, sport, music and so on. The tasks for Questions 2-4 may include any of the following task types: an
      article, a letter/email, a review, or a report.
      So from that I would say that there isn't always a review and you would be wise to be ready to write something else as well. Having said that, I have nearly always seen a review as one of the choices! Good luck with the exam!

    Hi! Am I allowed to use contractions and slang words if I pick the e-mail to a friend?

    • @oxfordenglishnow
      @oxfordenglishnow  7 місяців тому

      Hi, yes. This is the correct register for an informal email. You can use slang but make sure it is still appropriate. Good Luck.

    Hello, hope you are well. In order to get this job you have to have completed 30 years/should have completed 30 years/ must have completed 30 years. Are all three of them correct?

    • @oxfordenglishnow
      @oxfordenglishnow  2 роки тому +3

      Hi Akshat, I would say,
      In order to get this job, you have to have completed 30 years service. Obligation
      In order to get this job, you should have completed 30 years service.
      Preferred condition
      And
      In order to get this job, you must have completed 30 years service
      Modal of probability- near certainty.
      All 3 correct but different. It depends on the context. I hope that helps!

    Hi, did I understand right ? In part two we have to choose between an article, a letter/email, a report, a review or an essay. Is that right ?

    • @oxfordenglishnow
      @oxfordenglishnow  Рік тому +2

      Hi Manière d'Hêtre Thérapie, You write a text from a choice of text types - article, email/letter, report or review. I hope that helps!

    Hello teacher, I have a question. If I want to write an essay in neutral way and use contractions every now and then, is it correct or it will be scored worse?
    Thank you in advance

    Hello! Thank you for your amazing video. I have a question I'd like to ask you. Could you please correct my writing so that I can feel a bit more confident about my FCE exam? I'm studying for it on my own and would really appreciate feedback from such an amazing teacher. If you're willing to help, could you please provide me with your email? Thank you in advance.

      Hi, I could correct your work but it would be 50 euros an hour. If that works for you let me know.
