Wed, 24 Apr 2019 Mark Crocker Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas The Importance of Diagnostic Tests in an ESL Classroom For teachers of English to speakers of other languages, a diagnostic test is a valuable resource that can be employed to help both the teacher and the student.

Diagnostic tests are important as they assist the teacher in preparing lessons and materials, can help gauge the level of the student and whether the course is a good fit, and can help students know...  [Read more]

Wed, 27 Mar 2019 Mark Crocker Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas The Importance of Evaluation and Testing in an Educational System Although evaluation and testing are considered to be a ‘necessary evil’ by some teachers and students, it is quite absurd to call them so. Evaluation and testing should never be seen as ‘evil’, although they are certainly ‘necessary’ within a properly functioning educational system. It can be argued that no serious study is possible without evaluation and testing as they are surely the best way of judging the capabilities and progress of a student, and a serious motivation for reaching new goals.

Sun, 07 Jul 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Evaluation and Testing in EFL and ESL Classrooms Most of us grew up being constantly evaluated by taking a wide variety of tests for all kinds of subjects, all with the goal to show how much you know and how capable are you. Throughout school years teachers evaluate your performance, and your knowledge they based on of on the results from several quizzes, exams, and tests, and commonly based on results they know how to approach each student’s needs, or so they assume that the standardized score is accurate.

Fri, 06 Mar 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Reasons Why Evaluation and Testing are Extremely Important Evaluation and testing are important components for the teacher, students, and the teaching of ESL/EFL courses. These two tasks are both ways of measuring personal achievement about the progression of the course being taught. Without testing, it would be much more difficult for teachers to gauge their students’ progression in the course and would likely prevent students from earning certifications in the English language. If evaluations are not conducted the teacher may be oblivious to their deficiencies in their teaching methods.

Tue, 03 Sep 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Evaluation and Testing of Chinese Native Speakers Learning English The issue of testing and/or evaluation is an important topic in general, however, it is of personal import to me because I currently work as a full-time ESL teacher in China, over half of who are pre-school and kindergarten age.
