Example
There is a foreign student in our schoolbuilding.
The student asks you:

What is the easiest way to get to the city centre?

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

That was not an easy question to answer. Because, it depends on how difficult the task is, it depends on the level of difficulty. 
student A's answer

With the bus. 



student B's answer
The easiest way is to go there by bus. If you walk out of this building you will see a bus stop on this side of the road, a little bit to your right. There you should take line ... which will take you to the Grote Markt. That's the city centre.

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

It is easy to see that student B shows a higher level of English than student A. 
How would you grade answer A and B on a scale of 1 - 10?
We are all on different levels:
And that's ok!

Next week we will do a level test to determine your level:
You can follow English on two levels this year:
A1 - A2, or A2 - B1

You can always change course during the year.
