Common Entrance (CE) French, German and Spanish

05/06/2020

We provide comprehensive preparation for ISEB Common Entrance (CE) Levels 1 and 2 French, German and Spanish, helping to facilitate entry into top Independent Schools throughout the UK. Our tutorials focus on the development of reading, writing, listening and speaking skills, emphasising tailored presentation, targeted practice and personalised feedback, using a bank of proprietary questions and papers, as well as past and specimen papers, to enhance fluency and accuracy, develop vocabulary and grammatical control, build confidence and provide enjoyment and stimulation. We provide an informal assessment for each tutee at the beginning of their first tutorial. This provides the focus and clarity we need to enable us to target accurately where each tutee needs particular support. Working through the relevant Common Entrance (CE) specification, our tutorials are also interactive and fun, developing creatively our tutees' knowledge, time management skills and their ability to respond effectively to the variety of questions types found in French, German and Spanish Common Entrance (CE) papers. In line with the expressed objectives of ISEB Common Entrance (CE) French, German and Spanish, our tutorials aim to: •Develop the skills which will enable our tutees to understand written and spoken French, German or Spanish and to use that language effectively for the purposes of practical communication; •Give our tutees opportunities to take part in a broad range of linguistic activities such as those set out in the National Curriculum for French, German and Spanish; •Encourage independent learning, including the use of dictionaries, glossaries and ICT; •Give our tutees opportunities to work with authentic French, German or Spanish materials; •Encourage interest in countries where French, German or Spanish is spoken; •Encourage positive attitudes towards speakers of French, German or Spanish.
