Evidence of willingness to participate and of having prepared for class are extremely important. A daily participation grade is recorded for each student. These points are based on the level of the student's preparation for that day's class and participation in class activities. NO LATE written homework and Workbook will be accepted for credit. If a student requests, the instructor may agree to mark errors on an overdue homework assignment for the purpose of information, but the students receive no points for the work.
Assignments are due at the beginning of the class period.
The individual student is responsible for making decisions about accumulation of class participation, homework and Workbook points through his or her attendance and preparation. The exercises allow you to practice the grammar and vocabulary and to improve your listening comprehension. Make-up exams will be given only by prior arrangement and then only in the case of documented and clear need. The instructor will clarify the topics and will explain how he will mark the errors in the compositions. After you turn them in, you will get it back and you will have to go over your errors in order to receive full credit.
