Homework

Writing sentences is a good way to work on your English, especially if you write a lot for work.

The English Farm's homework system involves your teacher asking you a question after each lesson, and you writing a response to that question. Your teacher then corrects your writing, and shares their corrections with you so you can learn from your mistakes. 

Here's what you need to know.

To use the homework service, you need to use homework points. You earn one homework point for each lesson point you use. You can see how many homework points you have on MY PAGE.

One Homework Point can be used to check 1000 characters of writing.

If you want to write freely on any topic without a limit, then we recommend our sister site: Poligo English correction service.

How to get homework checked

You will find a "DO HOMEWORK" button on your My Page next to each of your Lesson Records. Use this button to submit any homework topic you would like corrected. You can choose any teacher you'd like to correct it. You do not have to do the task your teacher gave you for the lesson, but it is recommended.

When you have finished writing, you can save your writing as a draft, or you can save and send it to be checked. When the teacher finishes, you will get a message that says your homework is ready for you to review. You can then reply and discuss the corrections with your teacher if you need to.

It may take your teacher up to 72 hours to correct your submission. If it has been more than 72 hours and your homework is still not corrected, please contact support.

Homework example

Checked homework looks like this:

With a homework check you get:

  1. clean copy (shown at the top);
  2. A side-by-side comparison of your writing with the teacher's version (with edits); and,
  3. The chance to discuss the changes with your teacher in the comments. If anything is unclear, you can talk to your teacher in class, or you can comment on your homework and we will reply to help you understand the changes.

 

We hope that you will use this service to work on your English between classes. You can write to improve your grammar and vocabulary, or practice your speaking test answers. You can also practice the things you learn in your lesson. It's a great chance to communicate with your teacher by discussing your writing or asking questions about it in the comments, and you can improve your English skills every day.
