A new level 2 course starts

Feeling tired of wearing a mask and not seeing your classmates' faces? Online presentations are an excellent opportunity to get to know your new classmates better... and to improve your English, of course!

Listen to everybody's presentation and at the end of each one of them post your feedback. Write one strength and one weakness for each presentation so that next time they're even better.

Focus on the following aspects:

-Were the grammar and/or the vocabulary accurate enough? Did you spot any inaccuracies?

-Did the presenter use a wide range of vocabulary and/or structures?

-Were the grammar and/or the vocabulary adequate? Did the presenter use a formal register?

-Were the task and the communicative purpose fully achieved? Why/why not?

-Was the content relevant? Was the topic interesting? Why did/didn't you like it?

-Was the presentation long enough? Was it too short?

-Was the presenter's speech fluent? Were there too many pauses or was the flow ok? Did the presenter speak too fast?

-Was the presenter intelligible? Did the presenter's pronunciation cause any interference? Were the intonation, stress and/or rhythm ok?

-Did the presenter employ adequate communicative resources? How were the presenter's body language and attitude? 

-Did the presenter use suitable materials to support the presentation?

Help your classmates with your comments!
