Accept vs Except | Ask Linda! | English Grammar

 

These two words are often confused by native and non-native English speakers alike. The key thing to remember is that “accept” is a verb and a synonym of “to receive” as in the example “I accepted all my birthday gifts with gratitude”. “Except” on the other hand is a conjunction and a synonym of “apart from”. For example “When Susan travels she packs everything except the kitchen sink”. Remember, “accept” is a verb meaning “to receive” and “except” is a conjunction meaning “apart from”.


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.

I learnt how to engage students effectively, bringing appropriate topics and considering everyone's interest. Motivate them always as it is a foreign language to them. It has given me an idea how to teach English as a foreign language, how to cultivate all those receptive skills. I have an idea how I will get them interested to read and listen attentively.This unit covered the teaching of writing skills in a classroom. It never occurred to me that things like spelling and punctuation and penmanship might be very difficult for some students, based on their native language. I particularly liked the prompts for creative writing a fairy tale, because this type of production can be both fun and very informative.
