| 10 | Relative clauses and reporting Define, add information and report what others said. Task: Reporting a lecture. |
| Final exam week | End-of-module assessment Written grammar-in-context task. Portfolio review with your tutor. |
Continuous assessment: weekly class tasks and a learning portfolio, a midterm progress check during the teaching weeks and an end-of-module assessment in the final exam week (a written task and, where relevant, a speaking assessment). Results are reported as Pass, Merit or Distinction, with the CEFR level reached in each skill.
