PART TWO

I conducted the  interview with my client and the results are as follows: She wants to refresh her English to be able to communicate with people during a trip to London where she is going to meet her friend She is also  interested in taking Cambridge First exam but she is not very optimistic about the listening part. From the teacher she expects regular testing, friendly atmosphere and a lot of interesting activities. She wants to have grammar explained in Polish. Her intrinsic motivation is very strong and she can devote at least two hours a week to studying on her own. She wants to use one leading coursebook but she wants to have some extra activities too. As for her digital skills she is a bit reserved but she believes that she should move with the times and change her learning habits. She is over fifty and she is not used to modern technologies in teaching. She has a smartphone and she has some knowledge about applications such as Quizlet. She feels like trying them in practice.

PART 0NE

To test the level of English I used a pre - intermediate and intermediate grammar multiple -  choice test published by Macmillan - it was downloaded from HERE To test speaking I used this  ORAL TEST The survey I used to analyze my clients expectations was prepared in Google forms and can be seen   HERE

my client

The person my course is addressed to is a my workmate Dorota. She is a very good, ambitious and demanding teacher of Chemistry. She learnt English at school and her last contact with it was in the first year of her university studies, As a 25 year old  she took the FCE exam but she failed a listening part. She describes herself as a person who does not have a talent for foreign languages but learning English used to give her pleasure. She think that her weakest point is listening.  Now she wants to refresh English as she is going on a trip to London next holiday where she wants to meet her schoolfriend and her English family.
