Assessment

Lessons involve oral discussion of the topics studied, with the oral examination being carried out by your own teacher. Individual listening practice is done in school and at home online, including watching and listening to current affairs programmes or the news. The listening examination is completed with students having control of the listening material on their own computer. Dictionaries are not allowed in the examination, so a wide vocabulary is vital to ensure success. There is no coursework and formal assessment is completed at the end of the two years. Practice of the relevant skills will be a constant element of the course.
