The bar chart below shows the numbers of men and women attending various evening

Here’s the report that I wrote in the video lesson:!
!
The bar chart compares the numbers of males and females who took four different evening classes

in 2009, and the pie chart shows the age profile of these attendees.!
!
It is clear that significantly more women than men attended evening classes at the education

centre. We can also see that evening courses were much more popular among older adults.!
!
According to the bar chart, drama, painting and language courses all attracted more women than
men to the education centre in 2009. Language classes had the highest number of participants
overall, with 40 female and 20 male students, while painting was a popular choice among both
genders, attracting 30 female and 25 male attendees. The only course with a higher number of

males was sculpture, but this course was taken by a mere 15 people in total.!
!
Looking at the age profile pie chart, we can see that the majority of people attending evening
lessons were over 40 years of age. To be precise, 42% of them were aged 50 or more, and 26%
were aged between 40 and 49. Younger adults were in the minority, with only 11% of students

aged 20 to 29, and only 5% aged under 20.!
