Asset Languages qualifications• Measure listening, speaking,
reading and writing separately– so you can get higher
qualifications for the bits you’re best at
• Designed to help you succeed – questions and topics are wide
giving you lots of opportunity to show what you can do
• Test your language skills – – not whether you can remember
long lists of vocabulary
