HOW WE CAN TEST COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE :

According to the text "Testing Communicative Competence" I realized that the teachers should prepare the students to their communicative tests, in order to give them the possibility to use the language in real life situations. The grammar aspect is not so important, but the ability to carry out the functions of the activity (e.g.: askinf for information, giving suggestions, making requests, ...).
The students should be encouraged to study for more communicative tasks and the results of this action will be great to their future as speakers.
Finally, the teacher should be wise enough to choose tasks which ones will motivate the students and make them speak; but these tasks have to be related to their reality ( asking for information in a Mall, asking for prices of some clothes in a store, a situation in a restaurant with their friends when they have to discuss about the menu and so on).
