Scoring tongue twisters

I will give you the tongue twister before I question you -you will have time to read it and prepare.
I will look for speed, hesitation and pronunciation.

Conversation scoring

Both partners involved - I can mark one student higher and one lower.
good English - grammar and word choice, specific, not general

"I played a game" - not good

"I played Overwatch" - good detail

Not identical to model - both partners creative.

varied speed, tone and body language in natural speaking.
