WEBVTT

00:01.500 --> 00:11.190
OK so now let's get into let's get into writing the overview for the table here for the table graph

00:11.190 --> 00:12.520
that we have right here.

00:12.630 --> 00:19.390
Table So really a table graph really where it's just a table or table graph.

00:20.010 --> 00:26.760
It's just a table until you consider you know your teachers make mistakes a little here is here and

00:26.760 --> 00:30.810
there but I correct and no one's perfect and not expect to be perfect.

00:30.810 --> 00:35.100
That's why if you want to you can get a score of nine as the people think you have to be perfect for

00:35.100 --> 00:36.170
a score of nine.

00:36.370 --> 00:37.440
No you don't.

00:37.440 --> 00:41.760
Look you're entitled to some mistakes because we're all human.

00:41.800 --> 00:45.250
All right now we're at the table we already have the introduction here.

00:45.630 --> 00:49.640
And you know the introduction captures just kind of what it's about.

00:49.710 --> 00:50.180
OK.

00:50.220 --> 00:54.870
And now we move on to the general overview here where we have a general overview what we're doing is

00:54.870 --> 00:57.260
the same process it does.

00:57.280 --> 01:03.090
We're looking at we're looking at the table we're looking at what was or what are what are our highs

01:03.090 --> 01:03.970
and lows.

01:04.170 --> 01:05.840
And there are a couple of different ways we can do it.

01:05.850 --> 01:15.120
When we're talking about a general overview we can look at we can look at each category like food housing

01:15.120 --> 01:20.190
clothing you look at the high and low for food high and low for housing the high and low for clothing

01:20.600 --> 01:22.890
the high and low for entertainment.

01:22.920 --> 01:32.070
We can do it we can do it that way in terms of looking at in general what are our highest and our lowest

01:32.070 --> 01:33.440
percentages.

01:33.790 --> 01:34.510
Okay.

01:34.650 --> 01:38.210
So we can we can take it by by category.

01:38.520 --> 01:44.580
And if you're going to take it by category look at in general for each category this is what our studies

01:44.580 --> 01:48.000
are what our sentences will look like

02:05.840 --> 02:08.960
basically in the food category.

02:09.120 --> 02:09.900
Spain

02:12.620 --> 02:13.470
and Germany

02:18.500 --> 02:24.210
are by the highest and lowest

02:27.630 --> 02:28.710
percentages

02:36.650 --> 02:44.760
while in the housing section of spending.

02:46.280 --> 02:54.780
These cuts are taken by on those in the housing.

02:55.060 --> 02:56.360
The U.S. is Germany

03:00.620 --> 03:03.960
and the lowest is Spain.

03:06.710 --> 03:11.180
So what we can do here is we can say well the housing section of the spending.

03:11.520 --> 03:12.590
You know we can say

03:17.770 --> 03:20.290
we can see a reversal

03:24.760 --> 03:38.260
of these cuts in Germany and Spain because Germany is now at the lowest of the highest in housing in

03:38.260 --> 03:40.090
Spain is at the bottom.

03:40.090 --> 03:40.450
All right.

03:40.450 --> 03:43.720
So you can see that in this sentence.

03:43.930 --> 03:46.330
We cover the high and low for food.

03:46.330 --> 03:48.620
We covered the high and low for housing.

03:49.000 --> 03:49.580
OK.

03:49.900 --> 03:56.060
And that's why that's why it's really helpful to be with the right compound and complex sentences.

03:56.080 --> 04:02.050
It's really really helpful to be able to do that if you can if you can accomplish that you can really

04:02.500 --> 04:09.490
be able to cut down on how many sentences you're writing and be able to show a high level of English

04:09.490 --> 04:10.170
writing.

04:10.450 --> 04:11.440
Now we're going to move on.

04:11.440 --> 04:12.650
Let's take a look at the route.

04:12.660 --> 04:18.130
Remember the general overview paragraph we're not talking about percentages you don't see any numbers

04:18.130 --> 04:19.430
yet.

04:19.430 --> 04:20.070
Right.

04:20.350 --> 04:24.390
You don't see any numbers and you shouldn't be writing any numbers yet.

04:24.460 --> 04:29.520
We don't get into the percentages or the numbers until we get to the third and fourth paragraph.

04:29.530 --> 04:36.280
Keep keep keep harping on that I keep saying that over and over but it has kind of missed that sometimes

04:36.280 --> 04:41.360
we don't get into the numbers until we get into our third and fourth paragraph.

04:41.710 --> 04:42.110
All right.

04:42.100 --> 04:46.480
And in the second paragraph in the general overview keep it general.

04:46.690 --> 04:47.390
OK.

04:47.650 --> 04:57.520
Keep in general so with the clothing we can see what's the the low is France for clothing and the high

04:57.520 --> 04:58.560
is Germany

05:12.380 --> 05:24.340
not

05:35.640 --> 05:47.600
citizens of France.

05:50.940 --> 05:54.150
All right so that's a sentence about clothing.

05:54.270 --> 05:57.590
Now some students say Well can I just write a sentence for each category.

05:57.820 --> 06:03.350
When you're what what happens is when you're writing too many sentences you're taking time.

06:03.610 --> 06:05.650
OK you can take time.

06:05.770 --> 06:11.170
You have to learn how to write compound in complex sentences also because it's going to increase your

06:11.170 --> 06:12.170
grade.

06:12.610 --> 06:18.070
If you're writing all simple sentences if you're writing all simple sentences you're going to take a

06:18.070 --> 06:19.190
lot of time.

06:19.590 --> 06:20.230
OK.

06:20.230 --> 06:24.910
And also you're going to show a lower level of English ability.

06:24.910 --> 06:25.840
All right.

06:25.840 --> 06:29.110
So you've got to mix it up and you got to show variety.

06:29.770 --> 06:37.030
OK in our last sentence for the general overview we're looking at entertainment and entertainment we

06:37.030 --> 06:42.110
can see that Germany spends the most on entertainment and Turkey spends the least

07:00.480 --> 07:03.120
in the area of entertainment.

08:01.260 --> 08:09.320
And we've covered everything we covered how we cover food and housing we cover clothing and we cover

08:09.320 --> 08:10.860
it.

08:10.950 --> 08:13.370
We cover entertainment be a small eat

08:16.860 --> 08:24.180
and there are multiple ways to do this because we see that Germany because we see that Germany is the

08:24.180 --> 08:29.110
most in three different categories we could have done it that way.

08:29.370 --> 08:37.690
Another another way of writing another way of writing this overview paragraph right.

08:37.710 --> 08:45.810
Another way of writing this overview paragraph let's call this example one of the overview paragraph

08:46.920 --> 08:53.690
and now look at another way we could have written the overview paragraph here.

08:55.010 --> 09:01.740
For example two of the overview paragraph you look at another one we could have written have written

09:01.740 --> 09:07.710
the overview paragraph in terms of the second example we could write

09:14.630 --> 09:15.900
into categories

09:19.600 --> 09:22.050
of housing

09:24.360 --> 09:33.070
clothing and entertainment.

09:33.540 --> 09:34.500
Germans

09:36.970 --> 09:45.150
spend more than citizens in any other country.

09:45.450 --> 09:46.080
Right.

09:46.290 --> 09:47.850
You got that.

09:48.870 --> 09:50.910
OK.

09:52.230 --> 09:58.990
And then we can move on and talk about we could talk about our our bottom now.

09:59.130 --> 10:01.470
You talk about However

10:05.280 --> 10:06.450
when it comes

10:09.930 --> 10:10.410
to

10:13.650 --> 10:27.120
when it comes to others category of clothing France clothes the Congo France

10:31.110 --> 10:31.950
has

10:35.520 --> 10:38.100
the lowest percentage

10:47.070 --> 10:54.100
France has the lowest percentage and for entertainment

10:57.800 --> 11:02.410
for entertainment that we can't find

11:04.780 --> 11:12.420
Turkey in this position as a final point

11:21.780 --> 11:22.530
Spain

11:25.860 --> 11:29.360
spins the high us.

11:29.480 --> 11:42.090
Now for us to pin the least in

11:47.930 --> 11:51.420
housing.

11:52.700 --> 11:59.460
So there we have two examples of doing the overview paragraph two examples of doing the overview paragraph.

12:01.040 --> 12:01.870
OK.

12:02.090 --> 12:10.580
Those are are two examples of doing it both work and both capture the both of these examples capture

12:11.030 --> 12:19.560
the general information that we see the general information that we see in this in this the general

12:19.580 --> 12:22.270
information that we see in the table here.

12:22.450 --> 12:23.180
OK.

12:23.420 --> 12:26.270
And it's a really good example of really how to do it.

12:26.420 --> 12:27.550
OK.

12:28.220 --> 12:36.140
And one of the benefits of doing this course is you get to send me an example for a task number one

12:36.140 --> 12:37.580
for me to look at.

12:37.640 --> 12:41.810
You get to see one example of a task number one for me to look at and make sure you're doing it correctly

12:42.310 --> 12:48.050
and you also get an opportunity to send me an example of your task number two to look at and see if

12:48.050 --> 12:49.540
you do it correctly.

12:49.550 --> 12:57.260
So that's a difference in terms of our course is we actually will look at your examples and be able

12:57.260 --> 12:59.810
to tell you if you're doing it correctly or not.

13:00.180 --> 13:00.710
Thank you all.

13:00.740 --> 13:08.600
We also have peer review where you're able to submit your examples for peer review then your peers will

13:08.600 --> 13:11.990
help you to examine to see if you're doing it correctly.

13:12.140 --> 13:12.730
OK.

13:13.130 --> 13:14.300
All right.

13:14.300 --> 13:17.220
So let's stop and move on to another general overview.
