In assessing learner progress, I employ informal assessment methods that provide valuable insights into students' understanding and growth. These informal assessments may include class discussions, observations, projects, quizzes, and one-on-one interactions all determined by the type of class being taken. By utilizing these methods, I can gauge students' comprehension, critical thinking skills, and ability to apply knowledge in real-world contexts. It's important to note that these assessments are not solely based on letter grades. Rather, they focus on providing meaningful feedback and identifying areas where students excel or require further support, The emphasis is on fostering a growth mindset and encouraging students to take ownership of the learning journey. While letter grades are not the primary focus of informal assessments, I acknowledge that some parents may request them. In such cases, upon parental request, I can provide a letter grade that reflects the student's performance based don't the established grading criteria. However, I believe that the value of informal assessments lies in their ability to provide a more holistic understanding of a student's progress beyond a simple letter grade.Calificación
