how come no one is willing to tutor us here; Is english that hard?

Or is it all of us that is too busy?

Abeg, post questions: comprehension passages and questions, lexis and structure questions, oral english questions and so on.
Although i'm also still learning, I should be able to help out.

please this approach may turn out to be costly. I'd advice you either study both the hard and the easy subjects concurrently OR you study and finish up the easy ones first.

Why?

Because if you decide to read up a subject that takes an enormous amount of your time before an easy one, the subject(s) might consume all the time you have and leave you with no time to study minor ones which won't take much time.

ORDER OF ADJECTIVES
The use of adjectives is essential when
trying to describe a noun or pronoun.
Good writers and speakers are able to use
adjectives to create clear, mental images
for the reader or listener. As you
continue to work on your English, don’t be
afraid to use multiple adjectives to
describe something. Using more than
three physically descriptive type
adjectives in sequence to describe one
noun or pronoun would sound a little
awkward. When using multiple
adjectives in a sequence, you must be
aware of the correct adjective order. The
proper order of adjectives is listed below
along with some examples for each
category.
1. Determiners – a, an, the, my, your,
several, etc.
2. Observations – lovely, boring,
stimulating, etc.
3. Size – tiny, small, huge, etc.
4. Shape – round, square, rectangular, etc.
5. Age – old, new, ancient, etc.
6. Color – red, blue, green, etc.
7. Origin – British, American, Mexican, etc.
8. Material – gold, copper, silk, etc.
9. Qualifier – limiters for compound nouns.
Here are some examples:
"The interesting, small, rectangular, blue
car is parked in my space."
"I bought a beautiful, long, red, Italian,
silk tie."
"My father lives in a lovely, gigantic,
ancient, brick house."
"I have an annoying, small, circular,
American, tin, alarm clock that wakes me
up."
"Let’s order a delicious, huge, rectangular,
pepperoni pizza."
"We all love our smart, petite, British
teacher."
"They all received several dazzling, small,
ancient, gold coins."
"She owns a stunning, large, old, brown
dog named Boris."

Oxytocin, nice work. I think you skipped one: the ORDINATORS like, First, fifth, one, four, etc. which should be after the determiners.

Re: Nairaland 2016 Jamb Tutorial Classroon [use Of English Thread] by Geofavor(m): 10:06am On Jan 28, 2016
The English language is spoken with the VOWEL AND CONSONANT SOUNDS.

VOWEL SOUNDS

these are subdivided into three: monpthongs, dipthongs and tripthongs. However, jamb doesn't go beyond monpthongs and dipthongs.

Monothongs
these are vowel sounds consisting of just one sound. there are 12 of them:

note: the capped letters constitute the sound in question.

1) /i/ --- pronounced "e." e.g hIt, rIg, wOmEn, etc.

2) /i: / --- "ee" (as in, the same sound as the above but longer). E.g fILm, rEAd, grEEd, plEAse, suIte etc.

3) /ae/ ---- pronounced as if you're pronouncing "ah" and "eh" together. E.g rAm, bAn, crAp, etc.

4) /^/ --- "ah" pronounced quickly. --- e.g cOme, cUt, sOn, sUn.. Etc.

5) /a: / --- "aaah" -- e.g pARk, shARk, pALm, etc.

6) /e/ ---- "eh" -- e.g fEtch, nEt, mEg, etc.

7) /u/ --- "oo" -- e.g tOOk, fUll, put, etc.

cool /u: / --- "ooo" (the same as the above but longer) e.g fOOl, rUle, pOO, sUE, rUin, etc.

9) / 3: / --- pronounced as if you're pronouncing "eh" and "or" together. E.g flIRt, vERse, gIRl, hURt, scOURge, wORd, nURse, wORld. Etc.

cheesycheesy... 2000 - 2011 is not enough na grin

You should answer every question set since the inception of the exam. Questions aren't repeated word for word. The repeated ones are slightly changed. So, you have to have understood the concept behind such questions in order to solve them in seconds.

You can't guess the particular years where questions will be picked from and modified. So, it is advised that students study every year of the past questions.

Re: Nairaland 2016 Jamb Tutorial Classroon [use Of English Thread] by Geofavor(m): 9:17pm On Jan 30, 2016
Sorry for the delay.

10) /ɔ/ or /ɒ/ --- pronounced quickly as "or" ---- e.g rOt, mOb, wAtch, etc

11 /ɔ: / --- "aawwww"( as in, the same as the above but longer). E.g fOUght, tAUght, spORt, wARm, wAter, dOOR, crAWl, tALk, gnAW, pOUR, glOry, stOry, etc smiley

12 /ə/: hmm, this sound is tricky. It is called the schwa sound. It is weak and shot. It occurs at the unstressed syllable(s) of words. You pronounce it like you don't want to pronounce it. Funny, right? E.g colOUr, famOUs, VenUs, sUpply, teachER, gEnrE, doctOR, aprIl, pencIl, anUs, augUst, gudgEOn, cougAR, Alone, About, etc.


Any questions?
