Recommendations
“On behalf of my colleagues, I would like to extend our appreciation for the highly informative presentation delivered yesterday. Given that we are facing a new study design, the speaker demystified the process and imbued us with a critical interpretation with this outcome. Furthermore, our students were highly impressed and engaged with the various suggestions, particularly those that focused on fortifying their study skills. Looking forward to working with you in the future.” “BBE has played an important role in the development of English Language at John Monash Science School. We wouldn't look anywhere else when it comes to organising moderation, markers and speakers. The feedback has been fantastic for both students and staff, taking the stress out of the whole VCE EL process. BBE has felt like part of our EL teaching team for the past few years and we really appreciate their support.” “Thank you for marking our Year 12 English and English Language SACs. It is terrific to get an objective eye over where our students are at.” “Thank you Debbie, Janny and Greta. What you do for my EAL students cannot be underestimated and I thank you. Because of your exercises in Listening and Language analysis, they get good results and we are all happy. I believe your material is 'pitch perfect'.” |
