Some interviews may interrupt you
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。具体的なエビデンスを示しましょう。
In order to simulate a variety of G.B.C. test situations, your teacher will interrupt you during your answer. Do your best to stay focused, even when you are interrupted. Don't forget to use plenty of specific evidence in your answer.
Each test has a different style. This is another interrupting-type lesson. (Same as mock test 2)
Student goal:
Speak smoothly, without long pauses.
Keep giving detailed information.
In other words, don't give the test administrator the opportunity to interrupt you!
Teacher style:
Cut in with questions relatively often.
Be nice! If your student is stressed, back off.
Warn your student that you’ll interrupt them once in a while to ask them related follow-ups (clarify when, why or how), or abruptly move on to the next question.
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—specific evidence.
Specific evidence as the description says, means:
- Avoid general nouns when a specific noun can be used (ex: I like Japanese food > fresh sushi > tuna and shrimp sushi made by sushi masters in Tokyo, near the fish market).
- Or, use a general noun and then work towards a specific noun (ex: The economy is growing, so consumer confidence is rising. That means Japanese people are spending more money on luxury items and travel. So families can go abroad to places like Hawaii and enjoy their vacations).
- You may need to ask, "Can you give me an example?" or "Who does that affect?"
Answer the questions your instructor has for you.
