Advice vs Advise - English Grammar - Teaching Tips

 

This video covers the difference between 'advice' and 'advise'. As these two words have a similar pronunciation and spelling, their usage is often confused. In fact, the two words are both are from the same word stem but 'advice' is the noun and 'advise' is the verb. Therefore, their usages are not the same. 'Advice' refers to a proposal for an appropriate course of action. Please give us some advice about planning a trip to France. In this example, we use 'advice' because it is the noun. When we want to describe the action of giving advice or offering a suggestion, we use the verb, or 'advise' spelled with an 's'. A good example would be: I advised them to visit the Pyramids of Giza when they are in Egypt.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

In this unit I learnt about the productive skills speaking and writing, and the importance of incorporating it effectively into a lesson plan. Writing is commonly the most neglected skill as teachers often don't want to 'waste' time on it, however it is important for the students to spend time in class writing so that they can develop this skill.Teachers have the unique opportunity to support students’ academic and social development at all levels of schooling. Teachers play an important role in enabling students to feel safe and secure in the learning environment. Teachers have a huge responsibility in ensuring that the classroom is a supportive space in which the learner can grow.
