Thumbs up for German and tech drawing
Bláithín O’Shea of the Teachers’ Union of Ireland (TUI) said the two comprehension pieces were very accessible and the grammar questions featured relative pronouns and other common topics. There were standard subjects in the written German section, such as German culture, class trips and global warming.
Ms O’Shea said the comprehensions for ordinary level students were fine, and included a passage about the search for Germany’s best teacher. Standard questions on compound nouns and prepositions were asked in the grammar section, while popular teachers were also the topic in the opinion section.
