In
this blog we will try to understand the relation between knowledge and critical
thinking skills. A natural question that arises here is that ‘what is the
difference between knowledge and critical skills?’. Also, a question of whether
knowledge is important or critical thinking skills.
We
are writing this blog because many IELTS aspirants, students as well as
professionals, come to us and share their IELTS experience. They feel
disappointed that despite their preparation for IELTS they could not be
successful in attaining a high score in IELTS. One thing common in many of them
is that they put in good efforts in gaining knowledge and actually gained it.
Yet their score was not as per their expectations. We make them understand that
it is because they did not focus on developing critical thinking skills. You
can also be part of the best IELTS coaching in Delhi, like
these many students. We help them develop critical thinking for IELTS. Each
IELTS aspirant undergoes training for critical thinking skills along with
gaining the required knowledge.
The
reality is that one cannot choose one amongst knowledge and critical thinking
skills. Both these are complementary to each other. Also, knowledge is not
sufficient for attaining desired score.There is a simple way to understand
this. Knowledge means English grammar, Vocabulary, etc.while critical thinking
skills help you in application of knowledge.
If
you have plans to settle in an English-speaking country or want to stay there for
short period for studying or working, high proficiency in English language is
essential. For developing the required proficiency, you might have to join some
program. If the program is aimed only at enhancing knowledge, this may be
insufficient. Even if you learn the entire dictionary or learn all the major
grammar rules. Does such a program which is based primarily on knowledge ensure
success in IELTS?
We
are the best IELTS coaching in Dwarka and we offer a comprehensive IELTS program,
which is focused not just on knowledge but also on critical thinking skills.
