| My theory is simple. Learn the Language!!!! and you will naturally pass any examination that you sit for and the wonderful benefit of this is that you actually have a second or third language in which you can communicate with others instead of a useless certificate stating a level of testing that bears no relevance to skills of communication. I'm back teaching older students now after two years teaching kindergarten and I am staggered by the desire of some of these students to pass a high level test when they cannot understand, let alone answer, a simple question and continuously speak in the present tense without use of articles, pronouns and prepositions. If and when they do use the a fore mentioned they are often wrong. It's about time the Education Department encouraged 'language learning' instead of 'test passing' and both would eventually be achieved. |

| Hehe I'm not a good student because I have not as many certificates as my classmates. But at least I'm an English tour guide who can use English when I want to. So your suggestion is very useful Habarootoo^-^ |

| Its toooooooo sad to see that so many Chinese college graduates who have passed CET-4 and CET-6 with high scores can't speak English or communicate with foreigners. They are all good students because they always earn high scores and did very good job in taking exams. However, don't you find out that those guys who become successful are not good students in their classes? They were naughty or "bad students" in their teachers' eyes. But they are more successful than those good students. |

| Well, I think I was a "bad student" in my teachers' eyes but I don't think I'm successful so far... |
