Evaluation
The process will be divided into two, the midterm and final evaluation. The idea of having both is focused on finding out the progress of
students, as well as their needs in the midterm exams. Then, both students and teacher can work to polish up those aspects and find
out if any remedial work needs to be done. To get an integral evaluation that allows students and teachers assess the different skills in
language the following criteria is proposed.
