People who think only at money
Hi to all, yesterday a very strange thing happened, i went to an English school situated in the center of Bari, well i want to be short, after 1.30 hours more or less we did a very short interview, an american teacher asked me 5 questions on generic topics, of course i made some mistakes, after they assigned me a CEFR level, that was only an A2.
Ok I'm not a teacher, but what kind of evaluation method is one based only on 5 basic verbal answers, it doesn't consider your comprehension, listening and writing skills, which are the entire knowledge of the candidate.
In the end they told me that i have to spend about 3k € to achieve at least the first step of B2 level.
It is only a commercial purpose without any kind of seriousness, because they known what I'm doing here and what are my previous bases, how it's possible it means speaking here with natives is waste of time and nothing else.
I want to share this point of view on my experience with you all, please after corruption if you would like to share your opinion about you're welcome.

I think that this school hasn't focus to evaluate English skill for learner. When I read this sentence: "In the end they told me that i have to spend about 3k € to achieve at least the first step of B2 level", I can't believe that you have to pay 3k € to achieve B2 level.
After all, you should another school to learn.:))

Hello everyone. Yesterday a very strange thing happened. I went to an English school located in the center of Bari. Well i want to be brief, so, a little after 1:30 hours more or less we had a very short interview. An american teacher asked me five questions on generic topics, of course i made some mistakes, and afterwords they assigned me a CEFR level that was only an A2.Ok I'm not a teacher, but what kind of evaluation method is one based only on five basic oral ('verbal' is ok too) answers? It doesn't consider your comprehension, listening and writing skills, which are the overall knowledge of the candidate.
In the end they told me that i have to spend about 3k € to achieve at least the first step of B2 level.
It is only a commercial purpose without any kind of seriousness, because they known what I'm doing here and what are my previous abilities. How it's possible it means speaking here with natives is waste of time and nothing else. (This last sentence I don't understand what exactly you want to say).
I want to share this point of view of my experience with you all, so please after consideration, if you would like to share your opinion, I welcome it.

Did you want this English to be corrected, or did you want to start a discussion? Notebooks are for getting corrections, so it's a little confusing. If you want this to be a discussion maybe you can move it to either "Answers" or "Discussions". If you want the English corrected, just let me know.
