Final Evaluation
This level is important because it addresses a common frustration: learners know many words on paper, but still lose them in real speech. Developing helps close that gap. It moves listening away from isolated decoding and toward active understanding. That transition matters because once learners can process connected spoken English with less panic, the rest of their language growth becomes much faster.
