I met an old American once. He told me that he used to be an English teacher in South Korea. There was a student in his class who was a grammar expert, knew the grammar rules even better than the teacher.. but couldn’t have spoken a single sentence in English. Although the student knew all the English grammar rules, he couldn’t have communicated in English at all.
A former student of mine from China told me that they look at the algorithms to prepare them for the possible questions. Yes, they may be able to answer the questions or obtain high scores. Yet, and this is the big yet, they still have difficulty communicating in the real world. Thank you Christian for this insight. We need to see beyond the exams as a measure of language ability or proficiency. It is also not a level playing field. For developing countries, the cost of the exam is staggering. Additionally, preparing for the exams is likewise costly. All in all, that would be about two to three months' worth of salary. Higher-level exams are also not available in most developing countries. Only selected developing countries offer the CAE.
Partly thanks to you, I discovered that studying English was more than going to boring classes and doing boring texts. Now I focus on speaking the language and everything is much more fun, and I speak the language better and more confidently.
I saw the Portuguese test on the link, and this is insane!!! I completely agree with you, Christian, the best way is to communicate. Thank you so much.
You can find the same situation in traditional school. Students are true professionals in preparing tests and exams but they don't have the ability to solve small problems in their professional lives. In addition to the above, COMMUNICATION is a subject that schools should integrate into their training offer. Thanks Christian
The best teacher of the world!👍🇦🇺
Your videos always change the way I look at the world ❤
For me as english learner..
Difficult test like that just makes me frustated. In my opinion when two people make conversation in english and they understand each other...they are well known in english...they are good👍🤗
Because for me...learn english is for long life..everyday we learn a new word , everyday we learn how to pronounce , how to write and how to spell...so difficult test just waste the time 😧😢and money.
Learn from mr.Cristian through cangoru english is the best way to know and understand english more deeply
Thank you Cristian
See you in class😊❤❤❤👍👍
Thank you so much Christian, this video helps me a lot 🙏🏼
These days, thousands of people in my country, Uzbekistan, are spending their entire lives on preparing for the IELTS exam. Their lives are too precious to be wasted this way…
Could you share more details? Why it is so important in your country compared to the rest of the world?
@@MetaCulteYoung people are so eager to study abroad and IELTS gives them this chance.
@@MetaCulteOn the other hand, it’s a big business. People are earning a fortune from teaching IELTS.

Земляк, скажи что ты пошутил и англоязычные аферисты не травят жизнь узбекских детей... Это же как танки нато пустить в Серренгети!
I Ve Always thought the exactly same things as yours, Chris!!! Thank you for staking It out😊😊😊
I absolutely see eye to eye with you.
Great. As always.
Espectacular resumen 🎉
Thank you mr. Christian
A Love that teacher, is The best! Thank you ver y Much ❤
Hi Cristian! Your video really has Made me think a lot, cause I'm about to do an Advanced english test. I need to do it because I need to get a job. Thanks for your realistic thoughts about this matter
You change my mind
When did we forget that language is for communication? Was it when people turned it into a subject or discipline? It is so human, so deep, so rooted so as to turn it into an object. We've got to go to the basics in all aspects of life :) Language commodified at such a scale is truly a crime :))
Great video, Christian.
Christian,Always the best teacher
Best regards from Iran ❤
Bonjour Monsieur
Il s'agit de la deuxième vidéo que je regarde . J'ai bien compris votre message de fonds : " Les tests ne mesurent pas réellement les capacités linguistiques, ils débouchent sur de fausses attentes " , OK , après avoir pris connaissance de vos bons conseils , qu'êtes vous en mesure de m'offrir
pour améliorer de façon concrète mes compétences en communication afin que j'arrête de consacrer du temps à des choses inutiles . Ça me permettrait sans doute de vous dire quelques mots en anglais sur votre chaîne .

...the perfect speech Christian... as always. 👍
Thank you ...
It,s useful to me...
Dear Christian, I couldn't agree more with you!! Just my two cents. The latest craze - at least in my homeland - is the following: the corresponding diplomas or certificates are only valid for five years. Thus, after that time, you have to take once again the very same exam you already passed, let alone a higher one. It's just sheer greed, undoubtedly. 🥵
Besides that, those exams happen to be boring to death. The topics they deal with are almost never interesting or motivating, what augments the stress even more. Luv ur vids! Thanks a bunch for sharing. Regards.
I think you are right. I would like to make you a question: why it's Canguro English instead of Kangaroo English?
Virtual focus very good sir
You're true.
Thanks
Hi Christian!
I have done a lot of english courses in Argentina my country...I have always studied grammar, structures, verbs, etc...and my questions was...do english people really use it i their diary lives?
Unfortunately I had never the opportunity to use the language in a real situation...
Thanks...😊

First comment
I would like to share it with you, my story is so interesting in my caso, I'm from Colombia and my native language is obviously Spanish but I can't learn English in high school. I also started to hate it, two years ago I decided that I must learn and improve my English, today I can understand maybe 70% of conversations and speak a little bit, now I hope to improve my grammar and correction my mistake when I am speaking and here your RUclips channel is the best way for I achieve this goal.
Hey teacher since I found you on RUclips I never lost any video that you posted since then. You are espetacular to teach, but the music that starts in the final minutes of the video creates a special atmosphere in the final context of the video subject. Congratulations André From Brazil
Thats right IELTS is really challenging, i remember failing my first attempt, before i resat it 5 months later... But it is definitely possible.. Keep up the vlogs
Thank you. ❤.
Thanks!
You're amazing teacher, is soo good to have you here teaching us so clear!!! Thanks
I really have an incredible pleasure to be a part of your community. I love the way you teach English. But unfortunately I live in Iran and I cannot pay for the course because here in Iran no one has any kind of payment cards.
Hi teacher nice to see your vídeos, i am brazilian, my English level is A2 yet, but when i see your vídeos i can understand 80% your words, you are the best thank you very much for the vídeos, i am sure there are many people in the world learning English because you are helping.
So the Germans are better at English that the English. Why am I not surprised. By the way, I love the matching headings question in the IELTS test - so useful for real life situations!
Hello, Christian. Thank you for your videos. I could not start to watch your free mastercalss, whet I enter name and email the site always says "Captcha couldnot be verified. Please refresh the page.". What am I doing wrong?
Today is Crhistian's vídeo day! The best day o the week!!!! 😊
They don’t want every student be successful I believe 😮
I want to be a english speaker! 😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏

Let us comment and share the video to make the world a better place where people can understand each other but not feeding companies.
Thanks, Christian.😊
Thank you mr. Christian ( from Italy )
Thank you so much 😍😍😍
Tal cual.
❤
love you great man
It is very good listen to you.
I absolutely agree that the IELTS exam is not about the language! And I have conducted an experiment) I'm Russian native speaker, and I tried to pass the exam in Russian.
Can you guess the result?😀😀😀
You got a perfect score! 100%!
@@Canguroenglish I know you are joking now😄😄😄I was struggling with many parts of the exam! And I just confirmed my guesses to myself.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🎉
A sensational class. Thanks for the class teacher.
You are so right , exams mean everything because they are the easiest way to evaluate and eliminate people.
I don't hink exams would ever indicate ability of speaking and communicating.
Beautifully said. It's almost funny seeing the disbelief in people's faces when trying to explain this healthy approach to language learning. They're wondering how are you going to be sure you know if you don't get a score with a stamp on top😄
WHAAAA. There I thought as a kid that there was something wrong with me when I had encountered a similar "Jar Situation". I thought there was a human marking these tests, but again imagine how likely it is to become so rigid once you are exhausted by a 1000 of these. Thanks for the relief)).
Hopefully all these LLMs like chatGPT can solve that problem. They seem smart enough to allow for such small variation, which could mean a lot if were an about to be student. Anybody agrees?
Also this olympiad made me think of aptitude test I had to take. Which is basically an abstract, spacia logic and an IQ test. I also did not like it, because I felt there is a cheat to it. Now looking at how people are able to hone a skill of grammar problems in an unknown language, makes me think that exactly the same can be done with the IQ test. It's a matter of how quick you find answers to these abstract pictures. Sorry my brain does not compute these, YET. But it does not mean it cant compute a physics problem well enough (I even got an award in my school for it). I just think university are ought to be a upfront to it. Just state "We need hard working students" literraly and not "this test checks if your brain is good enough". Uh, how is this claim supported and validated?
So yeah, some motivation talk for a random reader of this comment, never let an exam ruin your self esteem. Put enough effort and time at it and you will get it!
If you don't like your professor, you're doing poorly. But we like you.
Amazing!
Excellent! 👍👍👍
jaja..Exactly..soo true
You’re a good teacher!
Thanks a lot!!!!!!
teacher, u r the best...
Thanks ❤
bs as usual
Hi, Christian. Although I am not native English speakers I can understand with subtitles almost everything you told in this video. The point is you speak very slow and it's certainly suit for all people who have been learning English.And of course I agreed with everything you sad.The ability of the communication is not the same like an exam.Thank you for your job and keep it up. My best regards.
💯💯❤❤
