💫 СЛОНЕНЯ ТА ЗІРОЧКА
Казка про те, як маленьке слоненя боялося темряви, а маленька зірочка допомогла йому побороти цей страх. 

Головна мета - пояснити дитині, що, коли темно, все навколо залишається таким же, як і при денному світлі: улюблені іграшки, книги, ляльки, велосипед та самокат, одежа, все-привсе залишається незмінним та теж відпочиває.
Маленькому слонику, який боявся темряви у цьому допомогла зірочка.

Казка: СЛОНЕНЯ ТА ЗІРОЧКА

In this episode, Kev talks honestly about the common mistakes IELTS candidates make — especially when it comes to speaking. Drawing on a busy week of lessons with Chinese IELTS students, Kev explains why so many people are stuck at Band 6 and how small changes can make a big difference.

He covers:
✅ Why short answers kill your score
✅ How to expand naturally (without sounding weird)
✅ Why repeating words like "chocolate, chocolate, chocolate" won't help
✅ The danger of memorised answers
✅ How to sound more natural and fluent

Plus updates on The English Native, Kev's YouTube, and plans to help students in China get better access to materials.
