Living and working in a multicultural environment such as in Bahrain means that students have plenty of opportunities, including sitting exams in their native language as this is frequently offered at some of the big international schools. If your child is a bilingual or native Spanish speaker it is likely that they will be offered to sit a GCSE / IGCSE, perhaps a year earlier than their peers who will be studying Spanish on timetable. Many students believe that they will fly through an exam in their native language, and some will no doubt be able to do so without any additional guidance. For others, especially those that have never been formally educated in the language that they use at home, it can be a challenge to access the top marks. This is especially true in the written elements of the examinations where accuracy, along with a developed range of context specific vocabulary, grammatical awareness and manipulation and a clear understanding of the exam board requirements, is paramount. Sarah, with her experience both as a classroom teacher and as an exam board marker, can assist bilingual / native speakers with their written Spanish and guide them through the expectations of their respective exam board requirements to maximise their potential. Online lessons available to students worldwide and in person in the Hamala and Jasra areas of Bahrain. Please get in touch for further details if interested.
