STUDENT’S NAME, you have done a pretty good job in our class! You were able to talk in
English, understand me and comprehend what we have learnt today. However, you have made a
few mistakes
in grammar: STUDENT’S MISTAKES; in pronunciation, STUDENT’S MISTAKES; and in
vocabulary: STUDENT’S MISTAKES.
Your VOCABULARY/GRAMMAR/PRONUNCIATION/SENTENCE CONSTRUCTION
(choose 1-2) are very good compared to those at the same age, but you have difficulty in your
VOCABUALRY/GRAMMAR/PRONUNCIATION/SENTENCE CONSTRUCTION (choose
another 1 or 2), EXPAND ON IT USING DETAILS AND EXAMPLES FROM STUDENT’S
PERFORMANCE; but don’t worry, I believe you will make huge improvements on your English
