Klik2learn are excited to announce the launch of a new digital English Skills Test for pre-beginners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n CEO, Ann Attridge said, \u201cOur digital multi-level tests simplify diagnostic placements for ESOL students. With the new beginner test, tutors can access test items at three different levels: pre-beginner – for learners with little prior knowledge, plus\u00a0 A1 and A2 on the CEFR scale.\u00a0 Learners can progress to the highest level they are capable of. Not only does this provide a more granular understanding of each student’s English language skills, it saves time.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n Klik2learn has created a unique digital English test for pre-beginners who are not ready for A1 \u2013 the first level of the CEFR.<\/a><\/p>\n The new A0 test is based on the Pearson Global Scale of English and divides the pre-beginner group into three bands using over 100 test items.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The CEFR level starts at A1. However, this new test can identify learners who are not yet ready for A1. A0 level students have a varied understanding of the English language, ranging from little or no prior knowledge to a smattering of English or some \u2018tourist English.\u2019<\/p>\n The new A0 test offers 100 test items which have been developed specifically for pre-beginner level students. The items test students on letters of the alphabet, using joined-up writing, cardinal and ordinal numbers to 100, plural forms and much more.<\/a><\/p>\n Once students have completed the A0 test, they will be given a score for listening and reading. The student will also receive a band from band 1 to band 3, which will highlight their overall English skills.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The A0 test can be found under the \u2018assessments\u2019 section on the Digital Learning Hub.<\/p>\n Students can access the A0 test via the \u2018Short English Skills test\u2019 or \u2018Full English Skills Test\u2019 as seen below:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The A0 test falls under the listening and reading sections of both tests and is auto-marked.<\/p>\n More information on the A0 English Skills Test can be found in our Knowledge Base by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pre-Beginner A0 English Skills Test Launched by Klik2learn Klik2learn are excited to announce the launch…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":2147,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nWhat is the A0 test?<\/h3>\n
