Case Study

Attending HKDSE Examination is certainly not a good idea. You know, I

propose I-Phone 5, I-Phone 6, I-Phone 7, I-Phone 8 and more. And theExamination Authority does not allow students to bring them. This is so harsh.

Yes, the Examination Communication and Support System installed is not by

Apple Company. You know, apple's i-Phone 9 function is a high-definedcamera, providing all applications including ...

Group Interaction

Flatten your teachers by words

(Worked Example)

Topic: Online Shopping

Logic: 1 Topic Sentence + 2 Elaboration + 3 ExamplePayment is another problem in online shopping . They need to pay for the transportation, whichis very expensive. My Form 1 English teacher Mr. Emmett Poon usually bought usefulEnglish resources from other western countries, but turned out with large amount of transportation fee. This increases the burden of the buyers.

This skill is ONLY for students who get relatively low marks.Put yourself in the group of disadvantaged.

To be frank, I am not a brilliant examfighters. I experienced setbacks all the time whenhaving tests or examinations. Just between you and me, I even attended detention everyday after school in Form 3. But this means I must work hard! Just say to yourself Nevergive up! , and you can recharge energy!
