I'm sure this topic has been discussed many, many times before, but I wanted to ask some questions nevertheless since there may be new members or new information. I want to get a better feel for what is being done nationally rather than in my own region.  

1.  What is the best assessment tool for ESL adult learners?  

2.  What is the most widely used assessment tool for them?  

3.  How much movement from one level to another do your programs see among these learners?

While I will appreciate detailed responses, I really just need some general responses.

Thanks in advance!!
