The questions in this test are designed to help you ascertain the student's speaking level. Start by asking the

easy questions or questions that you feel might be just below the student's level according to your judgment (e.g.

based on previous correspondence or testing). If the student is able to answer with confidence and accuracy,

move on smoothly to the next level. The student's current level should more or less correspond to where he/she

starts to struggle.Try to ask the questions naturally, as though you are having a conversation. You can add your questions as well to

encourage the student to speak more. There is no fixed time limit for this test, but a few minutes of talking should

be long enough to arrive at a rough assessment of the learner's level.
