HomeOral Examiner training for Young Learners Exams (Cambridge ESOL)
Friday, November 3rd, 2006, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Speaker: Jim George
There will be a training session on November 3rd for experienced teachers interested in becoming Oral Examiners (OEs) for the speaking test components of Cambridge ESOL's YLE exams. All three levels of YLE (Starters, Movers, and Flyers) will be covered. Potential OEs will be shown how the tests 'work', practice delivering the test with peers. Assessment criteria will be explained, and a number of candidates will be watched on video to standardise assessment. Professional teachers interested in attending the session should contact Cambridge ESOL Team Leader (Eastern Japan) Jim George esol.centre@gmail.com for a copy of the Minimum Professional Requirements (MPRs) and to reserve a place. There is a training fee of Y6,300, which is not refundable. Please note that attending the session does not guarantee that you will be accepted by Cambridge ESOL as an oral examiner. Before any new OEs are allowed to examine, they must also be co-ordinated; co-ordination will take place at the same venue on Sunday Nov. 5th, 09:00 - 13:15, and the co-ordination fee is 3,100 yen. All OEs must attend a co-ordination session at least once every 2 years to maintain their examiner status. You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with Cambridge ESOL's YLE exams prior to the training session, details of which can be found at www.cambridgeesol.org/exams/yle.htm
