Collected first hand impressions, opinions and suggestions concerning the course
All the learners:
- found the content of the course relevant to their activities and day-to-day situations they meet on the road
- found the general layout of the exercises pleasant in appearance
- found the instructions for helpful and easy to follow
- showed willingness for continuing testing the course
- confirmed the course will help them with improving their efficiency and it will be very helpful for their daily round
- would like their future efforts to be rercognised by a certificate
Difficulties arisen:
- By following the pronunciation exercises and by completing some exercises due to the different language level of proficiency of the learners
- The main difficulties, however, arise from the differences between the Bulgarian Cyrillic alphabet, and the Latin alphabet used in the course
Suggestions:
- Some units could touch wider spectrum of questions and topics including variety of situations, exercises and expressions, namely "illegal immigration" and "loading / unloading"
- More phonetic exercises to be included
The general opinion is that course will help them doing their work better and in a proper way.
