Paper 4
How is PSLE English Oral marked?
PSLE English Oral (Paper 4, Oral Communication) is worth 40 of the 200 marks: 15 for Reading Aloud and 25 for Stimulus-based Conversation. It takes about 10 minutes: 5 minutes to prepare and about 5 minutes with the examiners.
Reading a passage aloud fluently and expressively, with clear and accurate pronunciation, to suit the purpose, audience and context of the situation given.
Holding a conversation with the examiners on a topic based on a photo: expressing personal opinions, ideas and experiences clearly, and speaking fluently with clear pronunciation, accurate grammar and a range of vocabulary.
- Read the situation first: who is listening, and why?
- Use the preparation time to mark pauses, emphasis and tricky words
- Give a clear view, then support it with reasons and examples
- Answer the follow-up question asked, not a memorised script
