WELCOME! FROM IZAAK AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM IN OUR CHICÓ BRANCH Welcome to the 8th issue of the British Council Colombia Student Magazine. We have now been at our new main centre for over a term, and things are going well! Thanks to everybody who has come to visit and study at the new centre. We’re all really happy with it! It has been the perfect way to mark our 8oth Anniversary in Colombia. In this issue we try to answer some big questions related to learning English. Can you be too old to learn English is a question we often hear. In Sharing Knowledge, we look at some of the most recent scientific research to give some recommendations. In our EDI section, we talk about the enormous variety of English dialects that exist in the World (including one from Colombia!) and try to answer questions about which English is the best to learn.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR TEACHERS Other than teaching, what do you enjoy? I most enjoy playing the electric guitar. I listen to all types of music and I love it in general. However, my favourite genre to play is death metal. Many people don’t realise that metal is very similar to classical music, but just with a lot more volume and distortion. Watching people moshing while you are playing is definitely an intense adrenaline rush!
JESSE Where are you from? I’m from Trinidad and Tobago. My hometown is a small town called Preysal in central Trinidad. Trinidad is most famous for its Carnival, calypso music, and its wide mix of people of different origins (Indian, African, Chinese, Syrian, Lebanese, European and Latin American). As a result, we are known as ‘the melting pot’ of the Caribbean. How’s your Spanish? I’d say I’m somewhere between C1 and C2, as I did a double major in Spanish and Linguistics at university. I always got good grades in Spanish at home, but nothing helped me more than being here in Bogota. The more I tried to imitate the ‘Rolo’ pronunciation, the more my listening improved (listening has always been the most difficult part of Spanish for me). I think that finding an accent you like and imitating it is really important for learning a second language. It helps you to sound like a native, and increases your ability to understand native speakers. British Council Student Magazine
I also like teaching people to understand my mother tongue (Trinidadian English Creole), especially with close friends. Here are some words and phrases you might find useful if you go to T & T: • Wuz d scene? – What’s new? (Qué tal?) • Lewwe lime nah – Let’s hang out (Parchemos!) • Hoss / dan / dred / soldier – Mate/Dude (Parce) • We go link – See you later/Bye (Nos vemos más
tarde)
What do you miss about home? The people and the food. Trinidadians are really friendly people on Earth and the food is spicy and delicious!

SHARING KNOWLEDGE
Chris Cox
HOW OLD IS TOO OLD TO LEARN A LANGUAGE? One classic idiomatic expression in English is “old dogs can´t learn new tricks”. The idea that when we get old, we stop learning. This expression is popular in other languages in Colombia “Loro Viejo no aprende a hablar” “Old parrots don´t learn to talk”. Or in from France “Ce n’est pas a un vieux singe qu’on apprend a faire des grimaces” –“You can`t teach an old monkey to make funny faces”. Honestly, that’s a real saying! However, scientific research suggests that the belief that we stop learning when we get older is almost totally false. In the past, we thought a

child´s brain was highly flexible and adaptable so that it could receive new information more easily. On the other hand, an adult brain was a fixed structure incapable of changing. Nonsense! Modern neuroscientific research has shown that the adult brain is extremely dynamic, capable of responding and adapting to new experiences. While the adult brain’s ability to learn and adapt does decrease slightly as we get older, it never loses it completely. In fact, many linguists and teachers today believe that learning a new language later life

can have a number of benefits. One advantage Scientists compare learning a language to that older learners have over younger ones is solving a complex puzzle, and when we make the size of their vocabulary. Older students more effort, we have greater success. They generally have a larger vocabulary than argue that this “mental exercise” is more younger students, so when they beneficial to older people because it learn a new word in a different takes more effort for them to speak language, they can relate it to other English it than speaking Spanish.

can´t learn new tricks” isn´t even true for dogs!
This is particularly true with students who are retired. We all know that when we have lots of work and family commitments, it is more difficult to dedicate time to learning English. Pensioners don’t have to work anymore, their kids have grown up and left home. This allows retired students to spend more of their time on studying and personal objectives. Having more time definitively compensates for any small “slowing down” of brain function. Older students can also use their lifelong passions and interests to begin learning. For example, I once had an older student who loved blues music. He used the topic of the blues to talk and write, and increased his vocabulary and listening skills by focusing on the lyrics of different songs.
Interestingly, it turns out that the expression “old dogs can´t learn new tricks” isn´t even true for dogs! According to animal behaviour experts, older dogs are easier to train than puppies. This is because older dogs have a better ability to concentrate for long periods of time.
So, if it isn´t true for our four-legged friends, it certainly isn´t for English students. The truth is, it doesn’t matter if you’re changing career, travelling the world, or jumping out of an aeroplane: you are never too old to do anything, and learning English is no different. As Gandhi once said “Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever” and while some of us may not agree with the first sentence, the second is something we could all aspire to.
Learning English later in life also has significant health benefits. Medical studies have shown that it can prevent neurological diseases like dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Doctor IELTS is here to help you with your IELTS related questions. one clear point which is supported by evidence and/or an explanation. Finish your essay with a concluding paragraph where you paraphrase your main points. It’s important to ensure that you have no new information in your conclusion, remember this when you are planning! Style: be formal and objective, not personal. In essays, you can sound more objective if you create distance between you and the topic. Don’t write sentences with “I think.” Instead, you can be impersonal with structures like the passive voice. For example: •

Always focus on the question. This tip may sound obvious, but so many students lose points in the IELTS because they don’t answer the question. Don’t presume you know what the question says! The question tells you exactly what you need to do – read them carefully and do what they ask. Organise your main ideas with paragraphs. This shows that you understand the conventions of essay writing in English and helps you to clearly separate your ideas.

WHICH IS THE MOST “CORRECT” ENGLISH? Has your teacher ever told you a phrase is not correct, but you saw it in a movie or in a book? Who is right – your teacher or the place where you saw the phrase? On the other hand, has your teacher said a phrase is not correct, but people say it anyway? A classic example many of us will know is from the show, Friends. Joey, when he meets a girl for the first time and says hello, he often says “Hey, how you doin’?” He misses the word “are”. But it’s not incorrect. And it’s not because he speaks American English. This is something we do in all forms of English when we are speaking informally. The language that we learn in the classroom is called “Standard British English”, and it’s probably the most recognized and understood form of English. It is certainly viewed as “correct” English, and the most common form of written English. However, there is a multitude of English dialects spoken around the world, and many don’t follow the grammar of Standard English. Continuing with the example of Joey saying “Hello”. In different dialects of English, we say:
A’rite pal. What’s the fettle? (Scotland) Ey, waz di scene? (Trinidad) Do these all have correct grammar? Not at all! But they are all officially recognized ways of saying hello. So which one should we learn? The most recognized version of English is Standard English, so probably that. However, the problem that comes with everybody studying the same form of English is that we can become obsessed with one form of English and think that only this one form of English is the correct one. People from San Andrés and Providence speak with different pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar to people from England. But both forms of English are “correct”. More than a system of grammar, their language reflects culture, history and different ways of living. With so many dialects of English, it can be confusing and frustrating to know what to learn. But rather than trying to decide which English is the correct one, we should take interest in the differences, and enjoy learning about different cultures by interacting with them.
Hello, how are you? (Standard English) G’day mate. How you goin’? (Australia)

STUDENT SOCIAL COMMITTEE UPDATE Last term, there was another great opportunity for students to practise their English language skills in an informal setting outside the classroom. In April, the Students Social Committee (SSC) organized a screening of the film ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ at Meeting House near Centro International, in Bogota. Students and teachers met for a couple of hours in the evening to watch the movie and complete several language tasks. There were about 20 attendees in total. Here is what some students had to say about the event: “In general I loved the activity, was really nice and the choice of the movie was perfect, I guess that the combination of accents in that movie is perfect for us in terms to understand different kind of it.” (Luisa Fernanda Pardo, Intermediate II student) Also, on 18th May, there was an external social event entitled ‘Tribute to the Beatles’, which the SSC was actively promoting. This event included a gig by a guest band called The Nowhere Boys, winners of the 18th Latin American Beatle Week in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the 2019 International Beatle Week Festival in Liverpool, England. Future events will include a spelling bee contest and a cider tasting session. We hope you can join us.

STUDENT INTERVIEW Student: Liseth, Upper-intermediate Teacher: Andy Andy: Hi Liseth. I want to say congratulations on your recent IELTS exam score! Why did you need to take the IELTS? Liseth: I studied a degree in Film and TV Direction, and now I want to take a course in Vancouver, Canada. It’s a specialisation in scriptwriting/screenwriting, so I needed a good score to be accepted on the course. Andy: I know you got a lower grade the first time you took the exam. How did you improve your IELTS score? Liseth: You need to be disciplined. You need to make studying a habit, like brushing your teeth. I spent much more time watching TV series, watching TED talks and reading books, just like my teachers suggested. I think it’s important to study every day, for at least one hour. The time we spend in class is not enough – we need extra practice. I also think I became more serious about my studies. At first I was shy and I didn’t participate much in class, which I regret. Now I participate more, use my phone less, and try to do all my homework and extra practice every day. I feel much more confident. Andy: You’ve taken many different courses at the British Council – what was your favourite?
Liseth: I really enjoyed the Speaking Listening and courses, and they were useful because listening is my weakness. I could practise listening to different accents and I also learnt strategies to help my understanding, such as guessing the meaning of words I don’t know from the context. That’s really important in the IELTS exam. The writing course also helped a lot for IELTS– in fact, writing was my best score. It was funny, the question I answered in the exam was very similar to a question I had practised here, so I could use all the vocabulary I had studied. Andy: That’s great to hear, Liseth. Thanks for sharing your success story with us and best of luck in Canada.

The incredible diversity and biodiversity of the country: Over the last three years I have really enjoyed exploring Colombia, from its fast moving and modern cities to its more isolated, but culturally-rich rural communities. From both a professional and personal point of view I will always remember the amazing hospitality, warmth and generosity of Colombians across the country. No wonder Colombia has been seeing an increase in the number of international visitors it receives! What have you enjoyed most about working at British Council Colombia? I have most enjoyed working with the fantastic team at British Council Colombia. Thanks to them, we are the largest British Council organisation in the Americas region. This year British Council is celebrating its 80th anniversary in Colombia, which has been a good moment to remember how we have provided life changing opportunities to Colombians over the last 80 years. I will definitely miss everyone when I leave! British Council Student Magazine
CULTURAL HERITAGE FOR INCLUSIVE GROWTH Since 2018, the British Council has been implementing Cultural Heritage for Inclusive Growth (CH4IG) pilot in Kenia, Vietnam and Colombia. In our country, it’s part of the British Council´s Arts Direction, and in Spanish it’s called “Sembrando nuestros Saberes” - Sowing Our Knowledge. The purpose is to explore, jointly with indigenous people, innovative ways for inclusive growth to strengthen their cultural heritage. As part of the programme, several workshops and activities are being developed to strengthen indigenous cultural traditional knowledge and to elaborate safeguarding strategies to promote it as well as give it value within indigenous groups and society in general. CH4IG will benefit more than 18000 indigenous members of the Ette Ennaka (Magdalena), Misak (Cauca), Piaroa (Vichada), Puinave (Guainía) and Cuiba and Yaruro (Casanare). Also, the programme has been implemented in partnership with Fundación Etnollano, Asociación Teje Teje and Cabildo Indígena de Guambía, all of them as strategic co-delivery partners who know indigenous cultural and territorial issues well. “We built CH4IG route with our partners´ and each of the indigenous communities’ active participation. As a result, we have a programme that has the necessary tools to support safeguarding indigenous people’s cultural heritage and promotes the intergenerational knowledge transmission as a strategy to ensure their sustainability”, says Patricia Navas, CH4IG Colombia Programme Technical Lead.

STUDENT CORNER Intermediate 2: Ajax vs Tottenham, Felipe Reyes Gaitan “I usually don’t follow football that much, but last week I wanted to spend some time with my father and I stumbled upon one of the best football matches I have ever seen, I’m talking about the champions league semi-final Ajax vs Tottenham that took place on Wednesday 8th of May; Ajax had won the first game 1-0 in London, this means that Tottenham needed to beat Ajax in the Netherlands.
The match was exciting from the beginning with Ajax scoring an early header goal at minute 4, things were looking bad and Tottenham would need to climb a steeper mountain; Ajax were playing really well and with great confidence, they managed to score a second goal at minute 35 with an incredible succession of well executed passes; at that moment we thought the match was over, that Tottenham would never be able to come back from that deficit especially in the Netherlands. The second half was a completely different story, Tottenham kept playing with all their hearts and Lucas Moura scored his first goal at minute 54 thanks to a fast paced counter attack; we thought it was still a pretty tough situation for Tottenham because Ajax were playing very well, and that they wouldn’t get caught in another counter-attack; after the goal Ajax started to play more defensively as expected, but Tottenham were playing in an inspiring way and capitalized their momentum with Lucas scoring a second goal at min 58, two goals in less than 5 minutes; suddenly there was a spark of hope, possibilities were now open if Tottenham manages to score another goal they would go to the finals thanks to the away goal rule advantage; 30 minutes to go, we could feel the energy and enthusiasm in the Tottenham players, in contrast with the tension and fear of the Ajax players, the match transformed into a back and forth war, with multiple goal opportunities, outstanding goalkeeper saves and incredible goalposts saves, it was nail-biting. Time went by quickly and suddenly we were in the overtime and the last seconds of the game were playing out, and then the impossible happened Lucas scored his third goal in the last play of the game for an epic hat trick that he will never forget; Ajax players fell down to the floor in disbelief and sadness, while Tottenham players and fans were celebrating the best day of their lives; the enthusiasm was so overwhelming that my father and I were also celebrating as if we were real avid Tottenham fans. In the other half of the bracket Liverpool had beaten Barcelona in another incredible match, defying the odds and overcoming a 3-0 lost in Barcelona, by winning 4-0 in Liverpool, this means we will have a British grand final in Madrid Spain, and this is a final match that I won’t miss after all the incredible things that have been happening in this extraordinary version of Champions League. 12

YOUNG LEARNER'S CORNER How did you learn English? I’ve been keen to learn since I can remember. Learning English has been a personal choice since I was little. I enjoy reading, listening to music and watching content in English and that’s how it all started with English for me.
I discovered the British Council aged 15 and I fell in love with this place. I was a student for about 2 years and had the opportunity to be a part of the first YL class to go to the UK. Then I became a teaching assistant and now I’m the YL Parent Liaison Officer. What’s your favourite thing about working for the British Council?
Interview with the YL team My name is Angélica Cabezas. I’m 24 years old. I’m from Bogotá. I studied Business and International Relations at Universidad de La Salle.
What do you do at the BC? I currently work as a Young Learner Parent Liaison Officer at the British Council which means it’s my job to ensure open channels of communication between teachers, parents and students. I’m the first point of contact for parents and I try to make sure that they are always updated on what’s happening here and to provide prompt answers to any queries or concerns they have.
British Council Student Magazine
As a professional it has been challenging in a lot of ways and that’s what I like most about working here. I believe that education is fundamental to individual and social development and working at the British Council means I’m able to contribute to something I believe in. Something I do not want to lose while I’m here is the genuine and natural spirit that I felt the first time I stepped into this place. Somehow, that’s quite easy to do when working with young learners.
What do you do when you’re not working? Out of the office you’ll probably find me reading somewhere in the city. I love travelling and… basically anything you can do while travelling.

YOUNG LEARNER'S CORNER Scavenger hunt On Saturday 25th May there was a social event at the British Council for our primary and lower secondary young learner students. It was a scavenger hunt and they used the app Actionbound to complete it. The students received questions about English culture and English language on their phones and then they had to find the card that had the answer to the question, which were hidden around the teaching centre. Once they found the right word/picture they had to scan the code on the back with their phones and if they got it right, they gained points. The overall winners were ‘The Hunters’ who were Emilia, Isabella and Julio Cesar. Massive congratulations to them!

YOUNG LEARNER'S CORNER How will they do this?
21st Century Skills: is English enough? How are schools hoping to prepare their students for future success? In order to give students the head start they need, schools are looking to provide students with the opportunity to learn 21st century skills in English. A good example of this is the current project between El Ministerio de Tecnologías de la información y las Communicaciones (MinTic) and the British Council to train public school teachers to teach their students how to code in English. This is part of the Code for Kids strategy that will train 200 teachers a year from 2019-2022. It will directly affect 12.000 students a year across Colombia, which is a total of 800 teachers and 48.000 students.
DINGBATS
Teachers will be trained how to use a Micro: bit to teach coding in their classes. It is basically a pocket-sized computer with 24 red LED lights that can flash messages and be used to create games. There are two programmable buttons that can be used to control games or pause and skip songs on a playlist. It has an accelerometer so it can detect motion and knows when you’re on the move. The built-in compass knows which direction you’re heading in and it can use a low energy Bluetooth connection to interact with other devices and the Internet. There are a wide range of activities teachers can do with their students.
A Dingbat is a visual word puzzle where you must identify the phrase, saying, person, place etc. All from the visual clue of words and letters.
Can you work out what English word or phrase these pictures represent?
