If there is anyone from Tashkent who is willing to play football this weekend, I’m organizing a football match in this stadium which you can see in the picture😄. We have a friendly team consisting of my friends some of whom English teachers like me. We need a couple of players to join us. Don’t worry if you think you’re not really good at it because we’re not also top-notch. I am covering the cost of the stadium, which means you don’t have to pay for it. All you need to do is to pay for your transport cost. If interested, contact me @BekzodHayitov to secure your place.
Date: Sunday, July 23 Time: 20:30
Location: Tashkent city, Chilanzar district. (I’ll share the exact location if you contact)

#Football_vocabulary Are you interested in football?! So am I😍. From now on I will share football expressions in English. I believe you will find them useful to improve your overall English as well. We will learn two phrases for today: to do the double red-faced Manchester United beat Manchester City to do the double over their city rivals. To do the double means to beat another team home and away in the same season in the league.
The City goalkeeper was left red-faced as he allowed an Anthony Martial volley to go under him. To be red-faced means to be very embarrassed. You can use the word leave with red-faced.

#Reading_practice One is the lopsidedness built into scientific research. Scientific funding goes mainly to areas with many problems. That may be wise policy, but it will also create an impression that many more potential problems exist than is the case

Endi telegramda ham story degan narsa paydo bo’libdi. Instagramda faol emasman, oxirgi paytlarda facebookga ham ko’p kirmaydigan bo’ldim, chunki facebookda oldin yondashuv boshqacharoq edi, insonlar faqat hayotlaridagi muhim bo’lgan (milestones) davrlardan foto va video highlightlar qilishardi. Hozir Instagram bilan Facebookni farqi qolmadi. Both have the same BS. Endi shu BSlar telegramda ezvormasa bo’ldi. Fikrimcha, storyda auditoriyangiz uchun message bo’lish kerak. Masalan, o’zi xalqaro darajadagi o’qituvchi chekka hududlarga borib, o’qituvchilar yetishmaydigan joyda, o’quvchilar bilan ishlayotgani jarayonidan story qilsa, yoki shifokorlar yosh bolalar turli kasalliklardan aziyat chekayotgan hududlarga borib ko’ngilli ravishda yordam berayotganini story qilsa, bu sizni ham ruhlantiradi. Lekin hozirgi storylar qanaqadir boshqacha, yo meni yoshim o’tyaptimi? ‘Qaranglar, mana men bugun uyg’ondim, kecha qizil paypoq kiygandim, bugun oq paypoq kiyaman’ deb story qo’yish ham normal holat bo’lib qoldi. Mayli, pozitiv bo’lishga harakat qilaylik, yaxshi bo’lar hammasi.

IELTS speaking discussion has been scheduled. The topic is the effect of advertisements, carried by celebrities, on young people. we'll start at 21:00.

#whatisthis🤔 Have a guess😊

🔰Before we kick off the IELTS speaking discussion, let me introduce the rules of the chat.
1 As the amount of time of the discussion is limited, only prepared students are advised to participate.   
2 Each speaker is allocated around 5-6 minutes.
3 Make sure that you have stable internet connection and check your voice system e.g. a microphone, speakers. In case I am not able to hear a speaker clearly, I will have to mute them and allow next candidate to speak.
I hope everything is clear with the requirements. See you in the chat at 9 p.m! 😊

Technical problems haven't allowed us to use our last 15-20 minutes as planned, but some of you've shared useful ideas on the topic. I believe with better preparation of the topic, the chat can be even more lively and engaging. Thank you everyone.

Look what we have here!

Cambridge 17 kitob, 4 testdagi mana bu essayga qarang. IELTS mutaxassislari essaylarda har hil mavzular tushadi va kandidatlar bu borada har bir mavzuda mutaxassis bo’lishi shart emas deyishadi. Ammo mana bu topicda, odamlar xozir alternative medicine (Muqobil meditsina)ga ko’proq ishonishmoqda doktorga borishdan ko’ra deyilmoqda. Endi tasavvur qiling, imtixoningizda shu savol tushdi. Alternative medicine pozitiv yo negativ narsa ekanligini muhokama qilish u yog’da tursin, o’zi birinchi marta ko’rib turgan bo’lsangiz bu topicni, nima qilasiz?😊 Shu mavzuga bitta sample yozdim. Kanalga tashlab qo’yaman. E’tibor bering bu model answer emas, bu sample.

Alternative medicine is becoming increasingly common acting as a replacement of conventional medicine. To decide whether it is positive or negative development, we need to have a closer look at the issue.
There are some advantages to relying on alternative medicine. First of all, by using the type of medicine that can replace mainstream medicine, people can raise their awareness of such area of medicine, which means they are not largely dependent on doctors. For example, people can cure some minor health issues such as headache or stomachache with the means of biological therapies applying plants or food to recover from illness. In such therapy, the medicine is produced using natural products which are considered free from chemical substances. This notion also makes alternative medicine more appealing to people. Furthermore, in some areas of the world, people have easy access and better expertise at applying complementary medicine than conventional one. Thus, the rise in substituting hospital visits for alternative treatment seems reasonable.
Nevertheless, not all forms of alternative treatment hold scientific evidence and are approved by standardized trial, meaning that negative side-effect consequences might be a serious concern for individuals exposed to alternative medicine. The science behind mainstream medicine, on the other hand, has proved to have an accurate approach. Standard medical care undergoes rigorous research and a product is not released until it is ensured that it is completely safe for people’s organism. Another issue with alternative treatment is such approaches are often carried out by non- qualified people who rely solely on their experience, which can also lead to counter- productive results.
In conclusion, in my view, although alternative medicine seems to offer some tangible benefits, the risks associated with that area are seemingly much higher and may pose a considerable threat to public health. Therefore, I believe it is not a positive shift in the society and consulting qualified and professional doctors when one has health issues seems more reasonable approach.
