Who was collecting information about private ESOl provision?I have found out that one of my good E2 students, who is anxious to renew her visa/ get permission to remain etc, paid £300 last week to a provider and for that she got a pack of black and white downloaded/photocopied? E1 learner materials unit 1 to 10 to work through at home, a test in a month's time and a certificate. I asked if the provider looks at her work and she said she hands it all back at the end. I saw an evaluation sheet she is expected to fill in all about the quality of the provision; tuition etc. I have yet to ask if they have provided her with a CD/cassette to accompany the materials.She doesn't know anything about the test, examiner etc yet. Contact me if it is you that wants the info.Isabel Arnold _________________________________________________________________ Get the best of MSN on your mobile http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/147991039/direct/01/ *********************************** ESOL-Research is a forum for researchers and practitioners with an interest in research into teaching and learning ESOL.
