Pearson grade the connectives themselves

Not a ranking we invented. This is how Pearson's own examiner commentary sorts them, band by band.

Bottomy · porque · con
Middlepero · aunque
Top banddado que · no obstante · a pesar de · por lo tanto

Pearson state that a script using only y and porque to link ideas sits in the bottom band for range. That is the gap this closes, and it is a vocabulary gap rather than a grammar one — which is why five minutes a day moves it.

What a student actually does

  1. Meets the phrase

    Spanish, English, and a recording by a native speaker. They can tap any syllable to hear it slowly and see what the sound is doing.

  2. Puts it into a sentence

    A gapped sentence in Spanish with the English underneath, gapped the same way. They type the missing words. Accented characters are one tap away, so nobody is marked wrong for not knowing where á lives on a phone keyboard.

  3. Gets it wrong, and tries again

    A first miss does not reveal the answer. It moves them to a different sentence using the same phrase — because remembering one sentence is not the skill being marked.

  4. Says it out loud

    Then compares against the recording. Eight phrases a day, about five minutes.
