Rocket with English - Assessment for Better Learning

Do you want to work in a more differentiated manner with English, increase the fun and motivation of students and achieve higher learning outcomes? In this session, we will talk about a way of working in primary English classes to cater the needs of each individual learner. Participants will have the chance to see samples of assessment data from various primary schools and brainstorm over the ways how these assessment results can be used as a tool for better learning. We will also look at the best practices in different countries to see how English language learning has been tailored to the students’ needs based on the assessment results.

Nalan Atabek

Originally trained as an English teacher, I currently work as an Internationalization and Assessment Coordinator to create and/or find opportunities for primary schools so that they can be equipped with better language learning environments, global competencies, and wider International networks to learn with and from each other.

I, also, facilitate workshops as an ETS-authorised teacher trainer for TOEFL Young Students Series. I work with administrative units of schools and English teachers in all K12 levels to cooperate over their English-language teaching programs, based on the valuable data collected from the assessments.
