One of the problems with listening to a tape and recording the answers is
that a lot of these kids have ADHD and/or problems with coordination - and
if they have to cope with running a tape during an exam - they really can't
do it.   This is from personal experience - all three of my kids have ADHD
and my daughter is dyslextic, too. With oral testing she has a 4 point
bagrut (she's not a native speaker). The one-on-one also helps focus the
kids on the questions.
