Student Language Profile

Student Language Profile

I work with the English department and students to create a student language profile for each student in the Diploma Programme.

The aim of the profile is to give all teachers an overview of the students` language level and history, as well as build up a picture of the students` use of English and other language outside of school.

The profile focuses on:

• Year and grade of entering Tamagawa:
• Year and grade of entering the IB (if different to above):
• English phase when starting Tamagawa IB:
• English phase at the end of year 10:
• CEFR at the end of year 10
• Final MYP IB and Tamagawa English class and grade:
• DP language classes and level.
• Year 10 final Cambridge English Exam
• External English Language tests and results–type of test, level achieved, year taken.
• Time spent abroad:
• Previous education in the English language, overseas or in Japan:
• Parents/guardians non-Japanese language proficiencies–include language spoken to each parent not including Japanese language.
• Other languages studied apart from English or Japanese.
• Language or learning concerns / issues in Japanese.
• Other personal connections to foreign countries and/or languages.
