I currently have a student who needs a lot of practise doing listening comprehension
for an advanced exam of German. The way the test works, and the way we have been practising is as follows: We agree on a topic suitable for his level. He then asks me an open-ended question in German about this topic and I give a long answer, just talking until he stops me. All the while he's taking notes. He may ask for clarifications. Afterwards, he tries to repeat every bit of information I gave, but doing so in English so that he can't repeat phrasings without fully understanding them. Then there's another question about the same topic, and so on. I think it's a good test, especially for B1 level to C1 level; for C2 level I find it hard to spontaneously use difficult enough language but could probably do so if I knew the topic in advance (then the issue is that the student mustn't know the topic in advance). If any of you want to try this, I volunteer to give one short such test over Skype to any forum member with >200 posts. 2 persons have voted this message useful |
