Choose how you want to present in-class: write a story, make a slide, or do a Show-N-Tell. These will help you improve your speaking and storytelling skills.Assessment
Receive a self-assessment quiz at the end of each level. No Grades. Our learners report their level of confidence. We use a method called confidence-based marking to assess your children's speaking and storytelling skills. This method requires your children to rate their confidence level for each answer they give in a test or quiz, and then instructor gives feedback on accuracy of answer. Why do we use this method? Confidence is important to "speak up!" in a target language. Confidence-based marking can help your children to: • Identify their strengths and weaknesses, and focus on the areas that need more attention or practice. • Avoid overconfidence or under confidence, and develop a realistic and balanced view of their own abilities. • Enhance their learning and retention, and transfer their skills to new situations.Grading
