Shall we practise? 😀

Write a counterargument, refuting one of these statements:

- While playing video games, children acquire certain computer skills.

- People should learn more about their own country before travelling abroad.

- Riding a bicycle on the main road is more dangerous than driving a car.

I’ll select the best answers and publish them tomorrow 👩🏻‍🏫 Good luck!

Hi guys! Well done to all those who practiced making counterargument. This is a really useful skill for your essay.

Below, I'll publish a few of your answers. Some are already great; others can be slightly improved and I'll publish an improved version below:

While riding a bicycle is healthier, it is still more dangerous to ride on main roads compared to driving a car, due to limited protection and exposure to traffic.

It is true that playing video games can have negative effects on children, but it is equally true that they can also help children develop certain computer skills.

Let’s talk about IELTS vocabulary. How many words do you need to know to achieve a certain score? Here’re the results of my investigation 👇

This simple test can help you measure the size of your vocabulary. It’s not 100% precise, but it gives a good indication😉

That’s the result of a test I took a few years ago (I chose an English-to-English test and didn’t try to guess any answers).

How many words do you know? 👩🏻‍🏫

Let’s continue the conversation 🤓
