Help ALTA Develop Proficiency Tests
ALTA Language Services, a recognized leader in the language testing industry, is looking for intermediate to advanced learners of the English language to help develop reading and listening proficiency tests for a private organization.
Ideal candidates will be university students with current (within the last year) TOEFL scores starting at 200 for the computer-based TOEFL, 533 for the paper-based TOEFL, and 15 for the internet-based TOEFL.
ALTA will pay each test-taker a flat rate of $50 to complete both the reading and listening tests. After taking the tests, we will ask you to complete a short survey about your experience taking the test. All information will be kept confidential.
We expect each test to consist of approximately 80 multiple-choice questions. Test-takers may complete the examinations online, on any computer with an Internet connection. When the testing period begins in early February, the tests will be available online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
*Please note we are not looking for native speakers of the language, but rather speakers who have either been taking ESL courses or learning the language through self-study.
If this describes you, a student of yours, or a colleague, please get in touch with project director Jocelyn Echevarria via jechevarria[at]altalang.com with the following info:
- Your Name and Contact information
- Your TOEFL Scores for each section as well as overall
- The date you took the exam
- What version of the exam you took
We look forward to hearing from you!
