tutorial – a small group study session with a tutor often following a lecture
- He always found tutorials helpful as it was a chance to ask questions about what
they’d heard in the lecture.
seminar – a class at university in which a specific topic is discussed by a teacher and
52
- At university, I found seminars far more useful than lectures as I learn best in a
small group.
lesson – a period of learning or teaching, usually in a school
- Walter was late for the history lesson and got into trouble with the teacher.
homework – additional coursework work given to pupils to complete in their own
time outside school hours
- Most pupils hate homework as they’d rather be out with their friends or playing
computer games than studying.
correspondence course – a course of study in which student and tutors communicate
by post
- Juan’s local college didn’t offer a course in accountancy but he found a
good correspondence course to give him the qualification he needed.
distance learning – a way of studying in which lectures are broadcast or lessons are
conducted by post or via the internet without the student needing to attend a school or
college or have in-person teacher interaction
- I prefer to study by distance learning as I can work when I want and at the pace I
want.
online learning – Similar to distance learning but done 100% via the internet and
often involving in-person interaction with a teacher online
- I find online learning ideal for preparing for my IELTS exam and enjoy connecting
with my teacher via Skype.
to sit an exam – to take an exam.
- I want to carry on learning for the rest of my life but after I finish my training I hope
I never have to sit an exam again.
