Some interviewers may be quite friendly
G.B.C. テストで役立つ最良の文法、議論、流暢さ、デリバリーを学習します。よりコミュニケーションに役立つジェスチャーを取り入れましょう！
In order to simulate a variety of G.B.C. test situations, your teacher will be friendly and clearly show that they are listening. However, don’t stop giving detail, even when your teacher understands or even agrees with you.
Each test has a different style. This is a warm-type lesson.
(Not the whole time, just during the practices.)
Student goal:
Focus on adding evidence and reasoning, even after your teacher understands.
Remember, the goal is to showcase your best English. It's not just to make the interviewer understand. The interviewer doesn't matter much—they don't grade the test!
Teacher style:
Be as friendly as you can be.
Warn your student that you’ll be friendly. You may interrupt with agreement. They should keep on going! Some people will stop talking, but remind them they should keep going.
General guidelines
- No need to try and win an Oscar. Just do your best to change your style.
- Typically ask 3-5 questions in a burst, then give feedback. There should only be about 3 feedback sessions during a mock-test, unless you see a benefit of more or fewer.
- Make up your own follow-up questions based on student answers.
- During feedback, pay special attention to the goal of the class.
Ask the questions below; skip the ones you feel don't suit the lesson or the level.
Remind your student that they need to relax and answer the questions as they would in a business situation.
Student-specific goal
Ideally, establish a customized goal for your student. View the most recent G.B.C. score sheet and find a low score that you can teach to. Otherwise, you can use the default—gestures.
To be emphatic and use gestures, as the description says:
- Loosen up, move around a bit.
- Use thinking gestures and impact gestures, as outlined in Speaking Test Strategies 21.
Answer the questions your instructor has for you.
