摘要:This article suggests ways of adopting a more student centred -and more successful- approacli when teaching students, including yonger ones, preparing for exams such as Cambridge Proficiency. Practical classroom ideas are put forward, some of which can also be used with Cambridge First Certifícate and Certifícate in Advanced English students. These activities consist of: - Intensive study by students of the correct answers and marks given for past exam papers by UCLES (Cambridge University). - Intensive classroom pairwork. - Training students how to write exam-style items similar to those in the Cambridge exams. - Oral examination roleplaying. The more advanced students interview those at a lower level, giving marks as in Proficiency or First Certifícate. - Focusing on the results with Spanish students of these techniques.
