Activity Overview
The Quarterly Con-Test is both a Level Test and Contest organized every three months at Martin’s Ways to give students the possibility to evaluate the evolution of their linguistic skills in English and also to compete against themselves and other students to reach prizes. It consists in a test of an hour which includes the following exercises: sentence formation, word formation, open cloze, multiple choice, reading comprehension and listening.
Prices
The test is available for all of you and will count as one hour of private lesson (25 euros). In other words, we will tick one box of your Quantum Card if you decide to participate.
Pick a Nickname
Each participant will have to choose a nickname to keep the results anonymous. You will not be recognized by other participants.
Categories, Quarterly Prizes, Scoring and Yearly Ranking
Every student will be grouped in a Level Category according to original Placement Tests taken when registered in Martin’s Ways. Top 3 Qualified in Quarterly Tests will have the right to prizes, as follows:
Top 1: 1 English book, 1 English Game, 1 Quantum Card Free Activity.
Top 2: 1 English book or game, 1 Quantum Card Free Activity.
Top 3: 1 Quantum Free Activity.
Besides, every quarterly test you take will give you some points that will add up for final classification at the end of the year, where there will be special prizes for Top 3, when we will reveal the final results.
Scoring will be assessed according to the margin of improvement between original test and new quarterly tests.
