How the Class Grades Will Be Calculated

Here's a general breakdown of the TOEFL scoring concept

The grades for our class are based on
-> three essays (rated 0-5) that make up 45% of the grade (15% each)
-> three in-class speaking exercises (rated 0 - 4) that make up 30% of the grade (10% each)
-> three homework speaking exercises (rated 0 - 4) that make up 15% of the grade (5% each)
-> a log of your autonomous learning (10%)
 

If you correct your essays and speaking exercises within one week after I send you my commented version, and if there are no mistakes in your corrected version, you can get five extra points for the assignment. This "special offer" is only valid for assignments sent to me before the last week of class, and you can only correct each assignment once.

Writing
Score  = Grade
      5  = 100
4.5 - 5 =  95
4 - 4.5 =  90
3.5 - 4 =  85
3 - 3.5 =  80
2.5 - 3 =  75
2 - 2.5 =  70
1.5 - 2 =  65
1 - 1.5 =  60
0 - 1 =  Forget it
Speaking
Score  = Grade

       4 = 100
3.5 - 4 =  95

1.5 - 2 =  75
1 - 1.5 =  70
