Aloha ABC Studio Division Tutor Notes

 

【Before lessons】

1, Check your student info

To check student info : Teacher log-in and go to ‘Students’ tab

You can always check their level or purpose of studying, preference from Tutorpanel Student list when you log in to your Teacher account (not staff account).

Beginner Level 0.
– The students who have no knowledge of the language. They are classified in two groups: absolute beginners, who have had no previous contact with the Target Language; and, false beginners, who have already been exposed to the language in a passive way or have studied in the past. In both cases please speak slowly, use as easy words as possible and if you can, speak Japanese as well.

Level 1.
– The student understands basic phrases and instructions used in specific situations. He/she can interact in a very simple way and uses incomplete sentences, without real grammatical content. As same as the beginner level, please speak slowly, introduce new vocabulary, idiomatic and useful expressions but don’t emphasise grammar points.

Level 2.
– The student can introduce him/herself and others; can ask and answer questions about personal details such as where he/she lives, people he/she knows, and things he/she has. Students still are shy to talk and have no confidence about their abilities, so please encourage the students to have simple conversations and work on his/her confidence to speak in English.

Level 3.
– The student can produce simple connected text on topics which are familiar or of personal interest; can describe experiences and events, dreams, hopes & ambitions and briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions and plans. On this level please continue teaching new expressions and more vocabulary according to their own interests. Also work on his/her confidence to speak in English where it is needed.

Level 4.
– The student understands everyday language and the main ideas of some complex text. Despite making some grammar and spelling mistakes, he/she can write and speak with a degree of spontaneity.

Level 5.
– The student can understand almost everything, including idiomatic expressions. He/she can produce complex texts and uses the language effectively for professional, academic and social purposes. Inspire them with various topics about, life, business, culture, etc.
