How do I know the level of my learners or are there any assessments?
Each unit has a pre-assessment. We recommend that the learner take the pre-assessment for each unit as they progress through the lessons. The program will create an individualized learning path tailored to their needs by recognizing previously mastered skills and will mark the lessons they need to practice. Once the learner has completed the unit, taking the post-assessment will provide a detailed progress report showing skills mastered and will re-assign the lessons that need more practice.
How can I find a suitable lesson for my learners?
Suitable lessons can be selected both by the learner’s grades and topics. Place the cursor on the lesson name to preview.
