Top scores

Traditionally, a couple of weeks before Global Village matura courses end, students are given a chance to verify their skills in the mocks. An option here for those who want to have more control over their language and gestures is to get their oral exam filmed. Some students would rather not see themselves pulling their earlobes, or stuttering in the middle of a sentence, but others, who don’t mind the camera catching their performances for posterity, surely benefit more. This year’s results were outstanding and we congratulate all matura candidates on their scores.
Karolina:
“Last week I officially finished my preparation programme for New Matura at GV and from now on I’m all alone on the battlefield. Well… sort of. To keep in touch with English and GV-people I’ve decided to share some of my pre-Matura experiences with other students.
I’ve been learning English for more than a half of my school life, most of it at Global Village. That time was far more than just a way of spending 3 extra hours a week after school, it turned into an inspiration. Through English I discovered that foreign languages are definitely my element! Now, when I’m about to choose my career path, the direction seems obvious. So, very soon I will try hard to get accepted for English or Spanish Studies. To achieve that I will have to do brilliantly in my Matura and …keep my fingers crossed.
Though the prospects are quite optimistic (I scored maximum points in the oral mock exam), I’m well aware of the fact that there’s a lot of work ahead of me if I want to be a student at one of the top Polish universities – UJ in Kraków I’ve already had some experience with important tests – as a GV student I took and passed two English exams, FCE and CAE, so there’s a chance that the usual level of stress will be a bit lower later in spring.”
