It is often appropriate to give tests at different stages in a course; at the start of your students may be given a placement test to assist the formation of groups students at the same level, or a diagnostic test which is designed to tell you and the students what they do and don't know at the beginning of a course. Teacher often give a periodic progress test on the work covered. This can be in the form of a formal written test, or a more informal group activity, even a game-as long as it gives information to both you and the students as to how they are progressing. Many teachers prefer to give regular but short tests and then a longer, formal test every term. If the students are following a course leading to and external examination, they are usually more eager to do practice tests to get some idea of how close they are to the required standard, and also to get used to the structure of the examination. Another test that students might take is an achievement test, which is usually an internal test given at the end of a course e.g. at the end of the school year. Other options include external examinations, offered by organizations such as Cambridge Assessment, and proficiency test, which are not course related but claim to measure proficiency in English at particular levels such as the Common European Framework Levels.
