Progress of Advanced-Level Students at Yuno
Objective
To evaluate the improvement in spoken English proficiency of randomly selected advanced-level learners after completing Yuno’s 3-Month Advanced Spoken English Program (36 sessions).
Methodology
Program Duration:
- January–June 2025
- 3 months | 36 interactive classes
Sample Size:
- 10 students, randomly selected from the pool of advanced-level learners enrolled during the study period
Assessment Framework:
Each learner was assessed before and after the program across four key parameters, each rated on a 0–5 scale:
- Logical Flow & Coherence
- Fluency
- Grammar
- Pronunciation
Proficiency Classification (Total Score: 20):
Score Range | Proficiency Level |
| 0–6 | Foundation |
| 7–10 | Beginner |
| 11–13 | Intermediate |
| 14–18 | Advanced |
| 19–20 | Advanced Plus |
Summary of Results
Metric | Pre-Program | Post-Program | Improvement |
| Average Overall Score | 14.5 (Advanced) | 18.2 (Advanced → Advanced Plus) | +3.7 |
| Advanced Plus Learners | 0 | 3 | 30% reached highest level |
| Highest Score Achieved | — | 19 | — |
| Most Improved Skills | — | Fluency, Pronunciation | — |
Skill-Wise Average Improvement
Skill | Pre-Program Avg | Post-Program Avg |
| Logical Flow & Coherence | ~3.6 | ~4.5 |
| Fluency | ~3.6 | ~4.5 |
| Grammar | ~3.4 | ~4.0 |
| Pronunciation | ~4.0 | ~4.7 |
Observation:
Most learners began solidly within the Advanced range (14–18). By the end of the program, three learners progressed to Advanced Plus (19–20), demonstrating near-native fluency and confidence.
Key Insights
- 100% of learners improved by at least 2 points overall.
- 30% (3 out of 10) achieved the Advanced Plus proficiency tier.
- Fluency and pronunciation showed the highest gains, reflecting improved spontaneity, clarity, and confidence in spoken communication.
- Learners starting at the lower end of the Advanced range (13–14) demonstrated significant upward movement, confirming the program’s effectiveness across varying advanced profiles.
Conclusion
This case study demonstrates the strong impact of Yuno’s Advanced Spoken English Program (36 sessions over 3 months) in strengthening advanced-level communication skills and enabling learners to move toward near-native proficiency.
Through a focused curriculum, high-level discussions, real-world speaking tasks, and personalized feedback:
- 30% of learners reached Advanced Plus, and
- All participants consolidated and strengthened their Advanced proficiency.
The results validate Yuno’s approach as both transformational and measurable for serious language learners aiming for excellence.
