Soon after graduating with a Master’s in Literature from Southern Arkansas University, she joined an institute as an English language trainer. She has had innumerous student interactions and has produced a couple of research papers on English language teaching. She soon found that non-native speakers struggled to meet the English language requirements set by foreign universities. It was when she decided to jump ship into IELTS training. From then on, she has been mentoring IELTS aspirants. She joined IELTSMaterial about a year ago, and her contributions have been exceptional. Her essay ideas and vocabulary have taken many students to a band 9.

The pie chats compare the pattern of change in spending on household in a typical US family at two periods of time, 1970 and 2004 respectively.
Overall, while percentage expenditure incurred on food, transport and clothing had decreased over the years, expense on morgage and childcare had experienced increase. Additionally, the proportion of the family earnings on entertainment had remained unchanged.
Regarding the family expenditure that experienced a reduction over the years, while the largest portion of a typical family went on food, accounting for a quarter of total spending in 1970, this reduced by about half in 2004. Likewise, spending on transport and clothing also dropped from 13% and 22% respectively in 1970 to 5% and 10% respectively in 2004 ( almost a half fold reduction).
On the contrast, shopping on morgage and childcare witnessed a disproportionate increase over the 34-years period. While expenditure in morgage rose by about a double fold, spending on clothing increased by ten folds to reach 10% of the average family budget. The percentage total expense on entertainment remained constant at 13% in both year considered.
