You can do a one on one interview with each of your students to get a good idea
of their listening and speaking abilities. You can schedule these types of
interviews during class or schedule with
students individually.
2.
Class
Presentation
A presentation in class assesses a different aspect of spoken
language. When you ask a student to speak in front of the class, he is able to
prepare and practice what he wants to say. He can also research information on
his topic.
3.
Role
Play
Another way to assess your students’
speaking abilities is by having them perform role play in front of the
class. By giving them a situation and roles to play, you can see how creatively
your students are able to use language with one another. .
4.
Fill
in the Blank
This type of test is used to test a
specific grammatical structure or set of vocabulary. You can write individual
sentences or an entire paragraph for your students, but it is probably best to
provide a word bank in either case..
5.
Writing
Sample
Having your students give you a writing sample is another good way to
assess their proficiency with grammar. If you have them write something for
homework, you run the risk that someone other than your student will do the
writing. This will not give you an accurate picture of your student’s writing.
6.
Online
Quiz
You do not have to spend as much of
your class time assessing your students as was often necessary in the past.
With the extensive collection of online resources for ESL students, you can
require your students to spend time at home or in a language lab period working
on exercises and quizzes available
online.
7.
Multiple
Choice Exam
Sometimes the classics are often the
way to go when assessing your students. If you choose to give a multiple-choice exam, keep these
pointers in mind when writing the questions. Make sure all the answers are
grammatically correct..
8.
True/False
Quiz
The true/false quiz is also a classic that is used by most teachers.
When you use this type of test, do not
give trick questions that focus on minor details.
