What You Will Deliver

Unit 15 is not a new grammar unit — it is the integration of everything. Students combine all 14 previous units to produce one complete, confident 1-minute self-introduction. This is the A1A final output. If a student can do this, they have passed A1A and are ready for A1B. Hold the standard.
