Studying English at ICPNA and at San Marcos University Do you need to speak English to get your major? Are you worried about your English level? This is a main concern among most university students. They are not sure about whether to just study English as another subject in their universities or attend classes at a language school to reinforce their English competence. If you are not sure what to do, it is important to look at the characteristics of learning English at a language school or taking English classes at the university. This issue is experienced by students of English at ICPNA language school and students at San Marcos University. While there are some similarities between studying English at ICPNA School and at San Marcos University, some areas are different. The most notorious similarity between studying English at ICPNA School and at San Marcos University is the classroom setting; however, class attendance, grading system and students’ interaction set them apart. The most important similarity between studying English at ICPNA School and at San Marcos University is the classroom setting. In both ICPNA and San Marcos, there is one teacher per classroom. In addition, both schools have several students in each classroom. Both ICPNA and San Marcos University use school supplies and teaching material like books, notebooks, pen and pencils. For example, I use an American English book to study English at SMU; at ICPNA, I use an American book, too. As you can see, the obvious similarities between studying English at ICPNA School and at San Marcos University are easy to observe; however, these two schools differ in three important areas such are class attendance, grading system and students’ interaction. The first difference between studying English at ICPNA School and at San Marcos University is class attendance. At ICPNA, it is mandatory to attend classes from Monday to Friday. The teachers call the roll the first five minutes of classes and take notes on students’ tardiness and absences. On the other hand, at San Marcos University, students attend classes three times a week or less. In addition, teachers are not very strict on students’ attendance and punctuality. What is more, some teachers do not even call the roll sometimes. In addition to class attendance, a second different between studying English at ICPNA School or San Marcos University is the grading system. While at ICPNA students’ grades are based on their class participation, at San Marcos, they pay most attention to students’ quizzes and written exam results. For example, at ICPNA School, students’ participation and production is 70% of the grade while at San Marcos University students’ quizzes and final exams make up around 70% of their grades. Compared to the 30% of the percentage of the final exam at ICPNA, San Marcos school clearly pays more attention to quiz results. Besides class attendance and the grading system, a final difference between studying English at ICPNA School and San Marcos University is the students’ interaction. At San Marcos University, the interaction mainly consists of teacher and students. The teacher explains the lesson. Then students do some exercises and report their answers to the teacher or the class. On the other hand, at ICPNA language school, pair and group work done in class and the classes are student centered. All in all, despite the similarities, studying English at ICPNA and taking an English class at San Marcos University differ in many different ways. So next time you have the

opportunity and the means to study English, consider doing it at a school that specializes in the teaching of English as a foreign language (EFL) such as ICPNA. Studying a career in Institute and at University I. - INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH TOPIC SENTENCE: Just as there are some similarities between studying a career in an Institute and in the University, some areas are different. The most visible similarity between studying a career in an institute and in the University is the costs that this implies; however, the courses, schedules and duration of the career differentiate them. II. - BODY A. - The most important similarity between studying a career at an Institute and at University are the costs that this implies. 1. - Pay tuition each cycle - In Institutes it is approximately S /. 200 and in Universities the cost is S /. 400 to more 2. - Cost of supplies - Notebooks and books B. - As you can see, the obvious similarities between studying a career at Institute and at University are easy to observe; however, these two schools differ in three important areas such are courses, class attendance and duration of the career C. - The first difference between studying a career at an Institute and at University are the courses. 1. – In an Institute the courses focus on your career - There is more practical and little theory 2. – In the university the courses are general and career based - There is more theory than the practical part of the career D. - In addition to the courses, a second different between studying a career at an Institute or University are the schedules. 1. –The Institute gives you your schedule - The students attend classes from Monday to Friday 2. – At University, you make your own schedule - At University, the students can decide to attend classes three times a week E. - Besides the courses and the schedule, a final difference between studying a career at an Institute and University is the duration of the career. 1. - At University, you finish your career in 5 years

- The reason why this career has this duration is because it offers general courses and career courses 2. – At Institute, you finish the career in a short time, usually its 3 years. - The career has this duration for the career courses that it offers. III. - CONCLUDING PARAGRAPH All in all, despite the similarities, studying a career at Institute and at University differ in many different ways. Studying a career in an Institute and at University Do you need to speak English to get your major? Are you worried about your English level? This is a main concern among most university students. They are not sure about whether to just study English as another subject in their universities or attend classes at a language school to reinforce their English competence. If you are not sure what to do, it is important to look at the characteristics of learning English at a language school or taking English classes at the university. This issue is experienced by students of English at ICPNA language school and students at San Marcos University. Just as there are some similarities between studying a career in an Institute and in the University, some areas are different. The most visible similarity between studying a career in an institute and in the University is the costs that this implies; however, the courses, schedules and duration of the career differentiate them. The most important similarity between studying a career at an Institute and at University are the costs that this implies. In both Institute and University, tuition is paid for each cycle. In addition, both schools have several students in each classroom. Both in the Institute and University pay the cost of supplies school supplies like books, notebooks, and others. For example, I use a book and a notebook to study a career at Institute; at University, I use a book and a notebook, too. As you can see, the obvious similarities between studying a career at Institute and at University are easy to observe; however, these two schools differ in three important areas such are courses, class attendance and duration of the career The first difference between studying a career at an Institute and at University are the courses. At an Institute, the courses focus on your career. There is more practice and little theory and the practices that you do will be part of your technical professional life. On the other hand, at University, the courses are general and career based. There is more theory than the practical part of the career. What is more, most career courses will help you a lot in your professional life. In addition to the courses, a second different between studying a career at an Institute or University are the schedules. While that the Institute gives you your schedule, at University you make your own schedule. For example, at Institute, the students attend classes from Monday to Friday while at University, the students can decide to attend classes three times a week or no. Compared to the five days of attendance of the students in the Institute, at the University students clearly attend three times a week if they wish. Besides the courses and the schedule, a final difference between studying a career at an Institute and University is the duration of the career. At University, you finish the career in five years. The duration of this career is because it offers general courses and career

courses. Then, after you finish your career, you will have several job offers based on your career. On the other hand, at Institute, you finish the career in a short time, usually it's three years. The career has this duration for the career courses that it offers.

All in all, despite the similarities, studying a career at Institute and at University differ in many different ways. So the next time you have the opportunity and the means to study a career, consider doing it at a school that awards you a professional degree certificate, such as the university.
