Guidance at School

Many students remember a teacher or older student who had a lasting influence on them. In education, good mentorship can provide not only academic support but also personal (0) ENCOURAGEMENT (ENCOURAGE). A mentor often helps a learner feel less (1) .......... (CONFIDENCE) when facing new challenges and more willing to ask questions. This kind of relationship creates a sense of (2) .......... (BELONG) that can be especially important in large schools or universities. Mentors also offer (3) .......... (PRACTICE) advice based on their own experience. Rather than simply giving information, they listen carefully and respond in a thoughtful way. Their (4) .......... (AVAILABLE) can make a huge difference to students who might otherwise feel lost or ignored. In many cases, regular meetings lead to greater (5) .......... (MOTIVATE) and improved study habits. Another benefit is that mentors can reduce the feeling of (6) .......... (ISOLATE) that some learners experience. They may also encourage more (7) .......... (DEPEND) by helping students make their own decisions. For this reason, schools that invest in mentoring programmes often see a more (8) .......... (SUCCESS) student community.

What to do

For each gap you get one word in capitals which you have to change so the grammar and meaning fit in the sentence. Here you have to show how well you know word families and if you can change words by using prefixes and suffixes.

You need to read the whole text to get the writer’s opinion on the topic. That’s because sometimes a negative prefix will be required. There is usually at least one word requiring a negative prefix, so look out for these.

In the exam always write something. You never know, you might be lucky even if you are not sure of the answer!

Strategy

  1. Read the title and the whole text so that you understand what it is about.
  2. Look at each sentence in detail.
  3. Think about what kind of word you need and whether you need a negative prefix or a suffix.
  4. Read the sentence again to check whether you need a plural form.
  5. Check your spelling, as it must be correct.
