Hi everyone. My name is Prosper Buradi, and I am a student at Ahuntsic College.
We all use English in technical programs, and everyone can have difficulty with some words at first.
I have only been in this program for a short time, and I am still at the beginning of learning technical English.
I have worked with PLCs, sensors, motors, and electrical systems in my classes, and I have been interested in automation for years.
Today, I want to show you how Virtual Writing Tutor can help me learn technical vocabulary from my program.
Follow me and watch how I use the Glossary Creator to learn words from my program.
You may be surprised by some technical words, and some pronunciations can be surprising too.
In my program, many technical documents and manuals use English vocabulary.
If I don't understand an important word, it can be difficult to understand a lab, a manual, or a machine.
For example, I may know what a component does, but words like overload relay or proximity sensor can still be difficult for me in English.
So, I will show you how Virtual Writing Tutor can help me understand these words and practice their pronunciation.
First, open your browser and go to VirtualWritingTutor.com. Then click on Writing Tools, and choose the Glossary Creator.
At the top, you can see the menu. In the middle, there is a place to enter a word. You can also see the definition, pronunciation, and an example.
Here is the solution. First, I enter overload relay; Then I click on the tool to see the meaning and pronunciation. I can scroll down to read more information. The word is clearly defined, and I can listen to the pronunciation. After that, I try proximity sensor and do the same thing. I can repeat this with other words from my classes and build my own technical glossary.
Today, I demonstrated how Virtual Writing Tutor can help me understand and pronounce technical words from Automation and Control.
If you also have difficulty with technical English, remember to try the Glossary Creator and make your own list of useful words.
