    hey! I'm a 16 year old spanish girl and I just wanted to write a comment to say thank you. I got informed that I passed the C2 Proficiency exam yesterday, even though I thought I wouldn't. It was all thanks to your videos! They truly helped so much.

    Legend has it that every superpowered man has a cape and in our case, it, would be bear the letter F on it, which stands for focus; what I do not have clear enough is the colour of it. Come to think of it! it would be blue the colour of the constancy, necessary to maintain for almost four hours

    Hi Ben, what a great video of yours once again. Even if everything you said seems obvious, it can be very hard to focus but I think it's really helpful if you're always clear about what you want to achieve. When I take a break, breathing techniques always help me a lot. Please keep doing the good work, so long, Sabine 😉 👋😀

    I have no one to chat about my CPE scores, I got them today and glad I got 203 overall. All my parts are above 200, UoE is 219, but my Writing is 176 T_T, just wondering what I did wrong... Am I sooo bad at writing? My CAE Writing was much better) Your tips helped me anyway!))) Thanks!

    Hey Ben! I just wanted to ask you a thing. As a part of writing practice for my upcoming CAE, I thought I could look at some corrected assignments. I remember one video of yours where, throughout the whole video, you scattered a few steps (a bit like encryption) to get to one website where one could find a couple of them. I watched it a year ago or so, but now that I wanted to come back and check it out, I simply cannot remember what video it had been. It might have been something about improving writing skills. I remember it being quite long, but now that I was browsing your videos, I could not find anything that fitted these "parameters", so it might be possible that I do not remember correctly. Maybe it was not even from your channel, but I am quite confident it was. Do you possibly know what video of yours I am referring to? It would save me hours of going through all of them. Thanks a lot for your response!

      I don't think that was one of my videos, Nina. However, the C1 Advanced Teacher's Handbook has some writing sample answers with examiner comments. Also, the website engxam.com has some examples.

    @tothepointenglishwithben. When reading and listening in concentration, does it pass the time to take notes or write down vocabulary, or do you allow as much as possible? (according to your strategy)

    Hi Ben, thanks a lot for your help.
    I would like to ask you for some advice about the way we can know our marks on a cambridge english scale from the marks we know when we make tests on our own. I found a document for teachers in the Cambridge website, but i think it's not updated since the reading and use of English are mixed in a different way.

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.
      @tothepointenglishwithben.  3 месяца назад

      I'm sure all the content on the Cambridge website is up to date.
      However, you might find this website useful: kseacademy.com/cambridge/how-calculate-score-cambridge-exam/

      You are right, the Cambridge document I was talking about was OK. I might have misunderstood something or mixed up with other former exam samples, but now I understand, and the page you've showed has been very useful.👍🏽

    I have a question regarding reading and use of English exam. I have mine tomorrow. I watched your videos throughout my preparation process and you said that we should start with part 5,6,7,8, but im quite a slow reader, and it took me 30 mins trying to focus on part 5 without thinking about part 1,2,3,4. So what do you advise me to do?

    • @tothepointenglishwithben.
      @tothepointenglishwithben.  3 месяца назад +1

      You have to read quicker. There's no other solution now, I'm afraid. You have 90 minutes to do all 8 parts, so you can't spend 30 minutes on one part.
      Do your best to stay 100% focused all the time.
