[00:-2.00]CHATBACK ON:TUTORIAL CENTRES
[00:-3.00]Have you ever been to a tutorial centre?
[00:-4.00]Do you think tutorial centres can help students?
[00:-5.00]Write and tell us about your experiences and opinions.
[00:-6.00]Send your letters to'Chatback'at the City Mirror.
[00:-7.00]1.Helpful
[00:-8.00]I have studied at a tutorial centre for two years.
[00:-9.00]My command of English has improved considerably since I started this course.
[00:10.00]At my centre the fees are reasonable.
[00:11.00]My tutors are all qualified teachers.
[00:12.00]I have been helped a lot by them.
[00:13.00]They are sincere and kind.
[00:14.00]One of my teachers was British.
[00:15.00]At first I could not say anything to her.
[00:16.00]But later I learned how to communicate in English with a westerner.
[00:17.00]I think that the tutorial centre has given me a lot of confidence in using English

[00:19.00]2.Waste of money
[00:20.00]I have studied at a tutorial centre for one year.
[00:21.00]However,I consider that I have been cheated.
[00:22.00]These tutorial centres are only interested in making money.
[00:23.00]The fees range from 70 yuan to 80 yuan an hour or even 100 yuan an hour.
[00:24.00]The owners of the centres want to make a lot of money,
[00:25.00]and so they accept many students for each class.
[00:26.00]In my class,there were 54 students when the course started.
[00:27.00]However,they don't want to pay for good teachers.
[00:28.00]My English was a university student.
[00:29.00]His major subject was physics,not English!
[00:30.00]Very often,he could not answer our questions about the use of the language.
[00:31.00]In my opinion,it is better to spend more time on your school work
[00:32.00]than to waste money at a tutorial 'money-making' centre.

[00:34.00]3.I go to sleep
[00:35.00]I have been attending a tutorial centre for two months.
[00:36.00]I have been forced to attend by my parents.
[00:37.00]But I do not think it is useful for me.
[00:38.00]I am always very tired after school.
[00:39.00]Sometimes I even sleep during the classes in the evening.
[00:40.00]Furthermore,the teachers are very boring.
[00:41.00]They give us a lot of supplementary exercises but they teach us nothing.
[00:42.00]I usually read comics.
[00:43.00]Sometimes I go to a video arcade to play TV games instead.
[00:44.00]Therefore,I think tutorial centres are useless.
[00:45.00]SIMON LAN
[00:46.00]4.Good and bad
[00:47.00]I have experienced both good and bad tutorial centres.
[00:48.00]In my first centre, I was in a very big class.
[00:49.00]My teacher was an Australian.
[00:50.00]He just talked about his life and his travels.
[00:51.00]I could learn nothing from him.
[00:52.00]I left within a month.
[00:53.00]Then I asked all my friends for their advice.
[00:54.00]As a result,their recommendations,I enrolled in classes at another centre.
[00:55.00]In this centre the teachers are excellent
[00:56.00]and there are only 12 students in a class.
[00:57.00]We have been taught many good techniques for developing language skills
[00:58.00]and passing our exams.
[00:59.00]There are good and bad tutorial centres,
[-1:00.00]and you must do some detective work before you enrol.
[-1:-1.00]Finally,the most important thing is
[-1:-2.00]whether you are willing to learn and to work hard.
[-1:-3.00]The key factor is yourself.
[-1:-4.00]GRACE LI
[-1:-5.00]LISTENING Skills page 81
[-1:-6.00]Understanding directions
[-1:-7.00]Exercise A
[-1:-8.00]Locations on a map
[-1:-9.00]Where are these places on the map?
[-1:10.00]Listen to the recording and write the letters in the blanks.
[-1:11.00]There are a lot of tutorial centres in the city,
[-1:12.00]for example,there is the Top-Pass Academy,
[-1:13.00]it's on the north side of the river,behind the hotel,it's on a cross roads
[-1:14.00]Find the Bank,and it's diagonally opposite Bat.
[-1:15.00]The Neverfail Centre is not very far away,
[-1:16.00]it's on the north side of the river,too.
[-1:17.00]It's near a park,it's opposite a hotel and next to the library.
