"Repeat this," which was OK,
"跟我念"这样做是可以

Now, as the concentration increases...can you see, the time taken decreases.

Can you write it down, please.
请记下来
So I have been investigating how concentration...
所以我在研究的是浓度是怎么...
In Chinese schools, students are mostly just given notes which they're expected to copy and memorise.

Um, she was teaching us a lesson on equilibrium,
有一节课她在教平衡状态
but neither of us had understood it before and we now, like, got it straight away,

because there are some of them who enjoy the approach,
因为他们中有些人很喜欢这种教学方法
they enjoy just being told the information and they think that they can then go away and just learn it.

But I still think the majority are saying that they are bored and that they are not really understanding,
但我认为大部分学生还是说他们觉得很无聊，他们都听不太懂

我觉得这是纯粹的内容性教学和理解性教学之间的差异

现在，能请你们把大标题先记下来吗
