Registration and Placement Testing for English Classes for Adults
Exámenes de Colocación para Clases de Inglés
Beaverton Literacy Council
Winter, 20112

All students who are new to the English as a Second Language (ESL) program need to take a placement test.   We want to make sure that you are in a class that is not too easy or too hard for you.  Six levels of classes are available to you.

Cada estudiante nuevo en el programa de clases de Inglés (ESL) ha de examinarse.  Queremos asegurar el nivel correcto para usted -- ni demasiado fácil ni demasiado difícil.

The test will take about one hour.  After the tests are graded, each student will meet individually with a counselor to register for the appropriate class.  The entire session should take no more than two hours.

El examen dura aproximadamente una hora.  Después del examen, cada estudiante hablará con un consejero para inscribirse en la clase apropiada.  La sesión durará unas dos horas.
