    School teacher turned ESL tutor. Certified Montessori Trained (UK). TESOL Certified.

    As a teacher in school, I conduct periodic assessment on the topics covered. This is done by preparing questions and the students are allocated time to complete their assessment or test. Grades are also given at the end of the assessment. Usually, from the 1st assessment I can know the weakness of a student and pay more attention to his vocabulary or spelling . As for on-line students, I give an entry grammar test to find the level the student is. Sometimes, an adult will lack grammar or pronunciation skills from a country where English is not the main language of communication. In this way, I will adjust the lessons to suit the student.

    "Barrister" is a term used in the UK and other Commonwealth countries. A barrister is a lawyer who represents clients in court. "Solicitor" is also a term used in the UK and some Commonwealth countries and it means a lawyer who doesn't go to court but gives legal advice and prepares legal documents for clients. "Lawyer" is a general term that can be used for anyone who practices law. Then, "Attorney" is a term commonly used in the USA. It refers to a lawyer who has passed the bar exam and is licensed to practice law. Therefore, a barrister and a solicitor are both types of lawyers and attorney and lawyer are the same thing.
