Preparing for CE1D English over the long term
Firstly, it is important to attend lessons regularly and to participate actively by asking questions and doing exercises in class.
Outside school hours, devote enough time to personal study of CE1D English by revising lessons, reading texts in English and writing sentences or short texts.
You can also use online learning tools or applications to reinforce your grammatical knowledge and vocabulary in preparation for CE1D.
On and off the course
It's also a good idea to practise English as much as possible, whether with friends, family or native speakers. Why not watch one or other Netflix or Amazon series in English, even if it means opting for subtitles - in English too, of course 😉
Don't hesitate to ask your teacher for help if you are having difficulty with certain parts of the subject.
Set yourself realistic goals and follow them regularly.
