Time to say a couple of words about the latest exam.
Speaking this time was before the main exam. I was very happy with my performance thinking that it was the best speech I had ever given, but this time I got only 8, despite 2 consecutive 8.5s before that. Re-mark didn’t change anything.
In listening, I went down to 8.5 because I forgot the spelling of the word “NYLON”, silly me🤦♂️.
In reading, I got 9 for the first time in my life after 3 8.5s. The exam went very smoothly. I finished all questions in 40minutes and had plenty of time for a rest preparing mentally for the best I could show in writing, which I eventually did, getting an astounding 8.5.
What I changed in writing was this - in Task 1, I didn’t give all the details, but instead grouped unimportant parts and put them generally. In Task 2, for discuss I wrote three bodies giving an unrelated view to initially given ones in the last.
All in all, I was so close to 9, but God said - not this time. Well, okay. But, I am happy that I have already achieved the combination of scores that gives an overall 9. 9s in L/R and 8.5s in S/W. Now it’s time to do that in one sit!🔝

😬One of the most annoying mistakes - it’s depends.
Depend is a verb, so no need for “to be”.
It must be - it depends.

Two more students got their results yesterday, Abrorbek and Isobek, with the former getting 6.5, while the latter 5.5.
What is special about them is that they knew no English when they came to me. On the way, they learned grammar from Begov. Congratulations, guys! From zero to B2! Amazing!

This is the result of Abbosbek. Again a student from the times when we worked together with @. However, he came to us with already a solid level of English(between 6.5-7).
Anyways, an impressive result! Congratulations.

Speaking advice - Don’t say what you want, say what you can and everything will be alright.
