Test of English Language Learning
TELL- For teachers who need to understand the proficiency of their English language learners, TELL is a touchscreen-delivered assessment used to screen, diagnose, and progress monitor reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Speech recognition technology automatically scores spoken and written responses, while students in kindergarten through grade 12 interact with fun, engaging activities that feel more like games than tests. Reports are available in minutes to help teachers know quickly how each student’s performance compares to standards-aligned, grade level expectations.
