sos writing

No one tells you before you sign up to a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) degree that writing is a major part of it. There’s no way to avoid writing either. If you chose STEM because you feel like you’re “bad” at writing, you’re not alone. Many people choose it hoping to avoid writing as much as possible. Many sciences students have a learning disability (like Dyslexia) that makes writing more of a struggle. It’s even harder if English is also not your first language. Writing is often an anxiety-inducing chore, but it doesn’t have to be. Why is it so important? Science these days is a truly international effort. It’s normal for research teams to have collaborators from all around the world, and team members usually speak multiple languages between them. To be able to function and communicate effectively, they need a language in common. Since English is the most commonly spoken second language in the world by a large margin, it has become the de facto standard operating language in science. Although papers can be published in other languages, their audience tends to be small unless they are also translated into English.

kbm british school of english

Whether you are already a member of the BOS community, or a prospective member, from inside or outside Pakistan, we hope that you will find our site helpful, informative and even inspirational. Some time ago I was asked what about our school makes me most proud; as I searched for an answer I realized that there are so many things. There are headline achievements, such as our British Schools Overseas accreditation, our children’s attainment in reading and mathematics and our students’ IGCSE examination results. Of course, headline achievements are often based on data. In schools we love producing data to show how good our school is. Sometimes it must seem that we are motivated by this data: by the quest for ever higher examination grades or ever wider age differentials. At the BOS data is not what drives us. For us data sets are markers to show us how far we have come on our journey – data is not an end in itself; it is not the destination. In fact, I’m not convinced that the journey actually has a destination. We are motivated by the process more than the destination.
