The next #dailyvideo . It's by Derek Muller, and it is indeed the most controversial one out of all his videos.

📝I'm considering starting a series called "2 a.m. essays." You'll provide me with task 2 questions, and I'll write and publish essays on them at night.

🌃Why the night, you might ask? It's simply because that's when I used to write essays during my own test preparations. I want to create the same atmosphere for you.

💭I will also share my thought process and the planning I undertake before writing. However, because of the considerable time commitment required, I can only produce 2-3 samples every week.

If this idea interests you, please let me know. All you need to do is submit task 2 questions and spread the word about the channel.

Here's the 3rd and the most "learning related" #dailyvideo of all. Before watching I strongly recommend installing the game "Wordle" and playing it for some time to get familiar with the theory.

Okay, you can start sending task 2 questions in the comments section of THIS post. I'll write an essay and send it till tomorrow.

Have a quick look at this, you don't have to understand it, just give it a read-through.

I studied English for a year, then took a break for two years to focus on IT. During that time, I read a lot of technical material and watched a ton of English videos, which helped me get comfortable with the language. Because of that, I was able to get a Listening score of 9.0 within just 3-4 days and a Reading score of 8.5 after about 2 weeks of preparation.

I only practiced academic writing skills as my previous writing experience had been limited to technical writing, and of course, I practiced my speaking skills as well.

Sheesh, I forgot about the #dailyvideo . Here's the one, there's so much to learn here 😄)

So I picked this one, not because I like it - quite the opposite. I hate history and all those abstract things. This question type is also a bit harder so it's gonna be sort of a challenge for me.

Here you go.

It was pretty hard to come up with ideas coz as I said - I hate history of anything and obviously I hate writing about it.

Below is the planning I've done before starting writing, it took me 6 minutes and the whole essay took about 35 minutes to write.

#2amessays

Promise is a promise.

After taking your test, you can request for a breakdown of your score, just like in the picture above. That is the breakdown of my second attempt.

It's free of charge and not an EOR, meaning your scores will not change after getting it. You'll need to send a random email, maybe just greetings to privacyofficer@idp.com and they'll reply with an automatic template response with instructions. Afterwards you can send an email and this, second one, will be reviewed by a real person.

You'll need to attach your ID (the one you registered with) to the email you're sending which includes all the info about your test (date, candidate number, trf, name, id)

Here's the next #dailyvideo .

"Something un-holey"

You can start sending task 2 questions again, I'll write one tomorrow for the #2amessays series)

Come on be more creative, I need something to pick from

The random number generator picked 3, but I'll for sure consider other questions as well for the upcoming "episode"s.

P.S: Shaxzod bilan dogovor qimaganmiz faqat san bergan questionga yozaman deb, random generator bergan sonni oldim.

I'm about to finish writing, I tried to make it a bit different and slightly shorter than my previous essays, here's the planning:

Introduction:
- Position: Agree, old people should keep working
- Benefits to society, economy, health, and expertise

Body 1:
- Benefits to economy and society
- Experience, skills, knowledge
- Better decision-making, diverse workforce

Body 2:
- Benefits to health and well-being
- Physical and mental activity
- Cognitive decline prevention, social connections

Conclusion:
- restate position and benefits
- win win for all
- some encouragement to keep them working
