Anne Robinson - Motivating Young Learners for YL Cambridge Exams
Cambridge Pre-A1 Starters, A1 Movers and A2 Flyers are interactive, colourful and activity-based. Young Learners should love preparing for them and even test-day should be a truly enjoyable experience. How can we make sure that young learners (and their parents) really see their value and usefulness at this early stage in their English learning journey? Let’s explore some ways of ensuring that young learners actively participate in class and develop a positive mindset towards learning and assessment.

She has been involved in the Cambridge Young Learners Exams since they launched in 1998 and thoroughly enjoys creating materials and sharing tips with teachers and students to help them achieve success in their learning and exam preparation.
