Preparing For A Tutorial - All B2+ Groups

Prepare for your tutorial this week by thinking about the following questions:

1. What have you learnt this semester?
2. What areas have you improved?
3. What areas do you need to improve on?
4. How are you going to improve your English when the course is finished?

The tutorial is your last chance to hand in any course work for marking (e.g. essay, progress test). You must also present your self study notebook or folder for marking.

A Note About Self Study:

A Note About Self Study:

25% of your final grade is for Self Study, so therefore it is extremely important. Apart from homework you must also show evidence of:

• 
  Full answers to the 3 discussion questions posted on this blog this term.
  Recording new vocabulary
  Extra reading
  Extra Grammar work (e.g. workbook exercises)
  Lesson notes and reflection on them.
  

I will also take into account your attendance and participation in assessed activities (e.g. debates, role play negotiations) and class discussions.

Please have your blogs, notebooks and folders up to date and ready for assessment for your tutorial in the last week (14th – 18th December).
