Addressing Student Boredom in a Drill

To keep Beepboop lessons engaging and effective, students feeling bored during Drills can take several proactive steps:

  1. Self-Assessment: Reflect on the reason for the boredom - is it the class pace, content, or level of interaction?

  2. Participation Enhancement:

    • Consider upgrading to Pro for unlimited participation during a Drill.
    • Pro status also grants instant feedback from the Drill instructor, enhancing the learning experience.

  3. Feedback Communication:

    • Students are encouraged to communicate with instructors or organizers via email to amigos@beepboop.us.
    • Suggestions for potential topics can also be emailed to amigos@beepboop.us, allowing for more tailored content.

  4. Peer Interaction: Engage more with peers in our Facebook group to explore additional challenges and learning opportunities.

  5. Observation of Advanced Levels: Observing lessons in more advanced levels can help students assess their comfort and challenge level, aiding in deciding if a level change might be right.

Understanding Beepboop Levels

Beepboop’s methodology focuses on grouping students with similar speaking abilities:

  1. Level 1: Beginner (CEFR: A1)

    • Suitable for absolute beginners.
    • Encourages taking time when responding.

  2. Level 2: Intermediate (CEFR: A1-A2)

    • For those with some Spanish exposure.
    • Slight delays in response are acceptable.

  3. Level 3: Advanced (CEFR: A2-B1)

    • For students well-versed in vocabulary and grammar.
    • Fast response times and a rapid pace are expected.

  4. Level 4: Advanced II (Coming Soon)

    • Planned for B1-B2 students, focusing on advanced skills.

How to Change Levels

If a student feels their current level is not suitable, they can:

  1. Fill Out the Level Reassessment Form: This allows for a potential level adjustment.
  2. Respond to Post-Drill Summary Emails: Engaging with Beepboop’s feedback channels aids in reassessing and modifying the student's level.

Conclusion

To address boredom, Beepboop students are advised to enhance their participation, communicate feedback, and consider observing or switching levels. Upgrading to Pro for unlimited participation and instant feedback, as well as suggesting new topics to amigos@beepboop.us, can significantly enrich the learning experience.
