Beach Goer Lineart

There’s a beach  goer in the works. She’s right at the edge of the paper, it’d work out nicely if I paint a sea right above her. I really want to give it an atmosphere of midday sun and hot weather.

Writing Tests in a Foreign Language

How long was it since you last studied in a formal environment of a classroom, professor and classmates? Whether just a month ago or short of several years, the process of studying can be a daunting thing when you don’t quite know how to go about it.

I found it helpful to keep several things in mind when I did – and I was studying in German, not my native English! That adds a whole new spin to things. I had to be mindful of my grammar as well as the sense of my sentences. There were subjects where my answers were the only things that counted, others included a grammar score that could severely affect my final result.

Understand your Material

By far the most important thing for any studies in general, but it applies studying in a foreign language even more so. If I didn’t know what the key verbs of a sentence meant, I couldn’t apply the sentence later on in my tests unless I had it memorised – which I didn’t! I would use my textbook and notes as a word sheet and would look up new words once I’ve come across them. Sometimes I would mark them and get back to them later. I always made sure that the meaning was clear to me. It would then be much easier for me to write about it in my own words, rather than copying word to word out of the textbook.
