Description
Here’s information about the language proficiency process:
You’ll need a laptop/iPad/desktop computer as opposed to a phone and will keep your camera on during the assessment.
You will be asked questions orally and then will be asked to provide written responses in the Microsoft Teams Chat. You will provide responses without using translation assistance.
This is separate from the interview process and is for the purpose of assessing your language proficiency. The questions you’ll be asked are unrelated to the teaching profession and don’t have a right or wrong answer. The process is to assess your oral and written French proficiency. When you respond the assessment team will be looking at the following areas and ranking you between level 1 to level 4. Level 1 Limited; Level 2 Approaching; Level 3 Acceptable; Level 4 Exceeds Expectations.
