Criterias that I would use to asses my students' performance when speaking

This is my set of criteria I would take into account when assesing a speaking task
  • I wouldn't interrupt my students to correct before they had finished
  • I would take into account what they could achieved
  • I would comment on what was correct not just on what was wrong
  • I wouldn't correct my students' pronunciation mistakes while they are speaking.
  • I would give them either an oral but personal feedback or a written one. In fact I lke the written one the most because they could keep the sheet of paper I would give them with my message on it , soemthing something like 'great presentation, good job'

Do you agree with it? What would you change?

I'm all ears....

Hi Naty!!
I really like your way of assesing your students, but sometimes pronunciation needs to be corrected. Once happened to me that my students were debating about certain topic and I did not correct one word´s pronunciation and it happened to be a word that was constantly repeated, so all of them mispronounced it. Shame on me!!!
