C2 Mastery Level Test 1

Candidate: Ioanna

Mark: Fail

Ioanna is clearly a weak candidate for the Mastery level.While she is generally accurate, some of the mistakes she makes actually impede communication (*They can accept the phenomenons into the future; *you can rest yourself) and others are rather basic (*Youmay don’t know). In terms of fluency, she is extremely hesitant in all parts and the slow rhythm of her contributions often tests the listener’s patience. The extent of her contributions is also very limited, while the range is clearly below the level, with virtually no complex structures attempted.

Global Communication: Fail / Accuracy: Borderline Pass / Range: Fail / Pronunciation: Fail / Fluency: Fail

C2 Mastery Level Test 2

Candidate: Dimitra

Mark: First Class Pass

Dimitra is a very good candidate, whose performance is consistently impressive both in terms of accuracy and range as well as in terms of fluency and interaction skills. She demonstrates a very wide range of language, including some very technical vocabulary in Part 3, communicates naturally and at the right level of formality in part 2, and does not hesitate at all. Her pronunciation is distinctly foreign, but stress and intonation are used meaningfully and she is comfortably intelligible at all times.

Global Communication: First Class Pass / Accuracy: First Class Pass / Range: First Class Pass / Pronunciation: Pass / Fluency: First Class Pass

C2 Mastery Level Test 3

Candidate: Dora

Mark: Pass

Dora’s performance represents a high pass at this level. She uses some very complex structures, appears to be speaking effortlessly and naturally, with virtually no errors. However, in Part 3 she delivers a monologue and does not attempt to involve the other interactant, while the extent of her long turn in Part 4 is rather limited.

Global Communication: Pass / Accuracy: First Class Pass / Range: First Class Pass / Pronunciation: Pass / Fluency: Pass
