    ENGLISH LANGUAGE ONLINE COURSE TO ACF STAFF

    TERM 1 2024 QUATERLY REPORT

    BY
    ROLAND PHILIPPE MBOCK
    H.O.D. DISTANCE LEARNING

    Yaoundé, on 12 April 2024


    The English language online course for Action Against Hunger started with its preparatory
    activities at the end of 2023. The first term took off with the teachings on 22 nd January and
    came to an end on 5th of April. The following report shall focus on 5 key elements: the
    Placement Test, teaching/learning activities, evaluations, attendance and promotion.

    A. Placement test
    After the placement test which was prior to the beginning of the training, the 10 officials
    from Action Against Hunger were divided into two groups on the basis of their output in the
    test but also the report card showing this input the last time they took a course with the
    Yaoundé Pilot Linguistic Centre.
    Group A:
    Levels: Elementary (A2) to Lower intermediate (B1):
    - MOHAMADOU Ahmadou
    - EDANG Stéphane
    - EKAMBY Armel
    - TONYE MBONGO Danièle
    - NDJANDJI Nicaise
    - TIEWA Alida
    Group B:
    Levels: Intermediate (B2) to Upper intermediate (C1):
    - EBO NTYAME Gilles Alaïs
    - FOPA Mélanie
    - FOUENE Vanessa
    - KOUTAPTOU MOUCHILI Zounedou

    B. Teaching/learning activities
    Group A held their sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays from 14:00 to 16:00.
    Group B held theirs on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 14:00 to 16:00 as well.
    The term lasted three months (12 weeks) from 22nd of January to 4th April.
    The teachers assigned to the course were:
    Group A: Mr. Roland Philippe MBOCK and Mrs. ONDJI’I TOUNG Esther Patience;
    Group B: Mr. EYAMO OMOKO Olivier and Mr. Roland Philippe MBOCK
    Sessions were held on Google Meet. Google Classroom was used for assignments and tests.
    When some internet disturbances made the use of any of them challenging, Whatsapp was
    solicited as recourse.
    Pedagogic material
    Group A
    Coursebook: Intelligent Business Pre-intermediate (units 1 to 5) mostly used on Mondays. On
    Wednesdays, the teacher selected instructive videos and supplementary materials from the
    Inside Out Video series.
    Group B
    Coursebook: Intelligent Business Upper intermediate (units 1 to 6) mostly used on Tuesdays.
    On Thursdays, work was based on the Business News Lessons series of Onestopenglish.
    Lessons with the coursebook consisted in working on language points theoretically and
    practically. Activities included keynotes on themes, reading, listening, writing, speaking and
    language check (grammar and vocabulary).
    Lessons with the video (Pre-intermediate) included watching a video and working on
    comprehension activities. Some grammar and vocabulary points were also discussed and the
    sessions generally ended in a guided discussion.
    Business News lessons (Upper intermediate) were organised around a given business news
    article taken from a British newspaper accompanied with discussions, grammar and
    vocabulary activities.
    Both course schedules were 100% covered.

    C. Evaluation, attendance rates and promotion decisions.


    Two tests were taken by the participants in each group. The first was written in week 6 and
    the second in week 12. Each of the tests included five parts: listening, use of English
    (grammar and vocabulary), writing, reading and speaking and lasted two hours.
    Results
    Group A

    Names Test 1 Test 2 Total Attendance Decision


    MOHAMADOU Ahmadou 28.75 36.25 90% Promoted
    EDANG Stéphane 38.25 38.25 75% Promoted
    EKAMBY Armel 25 29.75 54.75 80% Promoted
    TONYE MBONGO Danièle 40.5 40 80.5 100% Promoted
    NDJANDJI Nicaise 33 33.25 66.25 100% Promoted
    TIEWA Alida 23 31.25 54.25 100% Promoted

    MOHAMADOU’s and EDANG’s second test submissions were not done properly for technical
    reasons. Indeed, the internet was very unstable on that day. Unanimously, the class teachers
    decided to promote them to the next module thanks to their irreproachable behaviours ad
    commitment during the term.
    Group B

    Names Test 1 Test 2 Total Attendance Decision


    EBO NTYAME Gilles Alaïs 29.75 37.5 67.25 90% Promoted
    FOPA Mélanie 29.75 40 69.75 100% Promoted
    FOUENE Vanessa 31.75 36.5 68.25 90% Promoted
    KOUTAPTOU MOUCHILI 28.25 32.5 60.75 80% Promoted
    Zounedou

    D. Difficulties encountered.
    The training could have been riddled by difficulties relating to the instability of the electricity
    and internet provision, but both the ACF participants and the Yaoundé Pilot Linguistic Centre
    teaching team always made it possible to minimize the challenges.
    We are looking forward to the beginning of the next module on 22 nd April 2024 to continue
    on the same line.
