# A child registers for it, once in a year (during the May to April period).
Registration is direct. School is not involved in any manner. ANY CHILD from ANY COUNTRY can register directly ANY DAY of the year.
One can register any day and give the "balance tests".
# Child gives SPELLING TESTS on SUNDAYS only. It is a dictation test.
NO STRESS ... as no preparation is to be done. Just be in the class and
give the test. One learns from one's mistakes here.
These tests are the learning tool as per Pati's T&L method (Pati's Test and Learn Method).
# Child gives tests on SUNDAYs in a Year (say, 2024-2025 or 2025-2026). Those who join, after
the tests have started in May, will give BALANCE TESTS ONLY. So, if you join in December, you give balance tests till early April (till Test 50). You can register in March as well and give the balance tests till early April.
# Answers are provided test wise. These are provided ONLY for the Tests attended by a child, else not.
# Tests are conducted in an online class.
Link and password are sent after registration is completed.
Word Dictation will be given, so child needs to have paper
and pencil/pen ready for the class. Each word will be repeated 2 times.
No meaning or sentence will be stated in the test. Pronunciation will be
regular Indian English pronunciation.
Answers will be shared only after the test. Child must have attended a test to get its answers (else not).
Child has to check and thus identify his/her 'weak' words and learn same through regular practice.
