| Description: |
A strong score on the ELPE can make an international graduate student eligible to be hired as a TA. This workshop will describe what to expect in all three ELPE Oral Skills test sections (Reading, Interview, and Presentation), explain scoring techniques used by the judges in each test section, and provide general practice tips for each part of the test. Finally, general public speaking tips are shared with participants. Registration is open to all who are interested. This event will not be recorded, because it involves audience participation. Those who attend this workshop have the opportunity to attend ELPE Presentation Practice (Microteaching) with feedback from experienced TAs, shortly after this event.
