This unit focuses on the various ways to assess students' language ability through tutorials, evaluations done by students, and the primary method of tests. Tutorials can consist of small ten-minute reviews at the end of each lesson to ascertain what was learned. Students can also help assess the knowledge they are given through questionnaires or general discussions of what they think of the course material. Giving tests is the standard method of evaluating a student's language ability from placement and diagnostic tests before and at the start of the course, respectively, to regular progress tests throughout the course and an achievement test at the end of the course. If students desire to take an external examination outside of the class to test their English proficiency, teachers can also give practice tests, which will help prepare them. External examinations can be anything from a general test for proficiency of English like TOEFL or TOEIC to specific level assessments like KET and CAE from the University of Cambridge. Students aspiring to study business as a career can even take exams like BEC that prepare them to speak English in a business environment.
