Assessment, intake & needs analysis
I have extensive experience in language assessment as an examiner, examiner trainer, test-item writer and language assessor, including training and standardizing professional examiners and conducting assessment in higher-education contexts.
I can support organizations with:
-
language-level assessment and placement
-
intake and diagnostic assessment
-
needs analysis for individuals and groups
-
assessment task and test-item design
-
CEFR-informed assessment
-
assessment criteria and rating scales
-
examiner/assessor training and standardization
-
reviewing the alignment between learning objectives and assessment
My approach combines assessment reliability with a practical understanding of how assessment decisions affect learners, teachers and educational programmes.
