Level Test on 20 August (Tuesday)

Hi Dearies

This is to inform you that your class will be sitting for your level test on 20 August (Tuesday). It is an essay writing test. There are TWO questions: 1) narrative; and 2) exposition (discursive). For the exposition, you use the 'PEEL' (Point-Elaboration-Example-Link) structure to base your argumentations on.

You choose ONLY ONE. You are advised to write between 350 and 500 words.

To score well for language, remember to include a wide range of interesting vocabulary and phrases, and produce a high variety of sentence varieties and complexities.

Good luck, and may the creative force be with YOU! :)

Best regards
