Oral assignments are graded on a scale of 0-5
To achieve grades 3-5, students must be able to speak in their own words (spontaneous language production), and not read directly from a text or script unless the instructions for the assignment require it.

If students read directly from a text or script and their English pronunciation and intonation is almost error-free, the highest possible grade for such work will be 2.75.

The use of AI is prohibited during the course unless otherwise instructed by the teacher.
