Checking your progress

Checking your progress

Things to do

Here are the things to do when you check your progress:

Monitor the objectives and content covered in formal lessons, and rate how well you met the objectives.

Tip:
You can use the Self-Assessment Questionnaire to help.
Familiarize yourself with the ACTFL Proficiency guidelines. Use them to make a global evaluation of your proficiency in any of the language skills at a given time.
Assess your current proficiency level in each of the four basic language skills at regular intervals. Use Checklists based on the Proficiency Guidelines.
Assess your current proficiency level by setting up tests for yourself, based on how well you can perform certain language tasks.
Record your proficiency in each skill and plot your progress across time.
