Hi everyone.

I have a question about ESOL levels with regards to
the REEP and BEST tests...I'll explain...

We're having some trouble at our learning center
trying to decide where our ESOL level 3 class should
end.  We have just started using the REEP, and we're
running into the problem of level 3 students who have
an SPL 7 (BEST oral), but their REEP score is quite
low: 2 or 3. When would this student move on? At what
point does a student 'finish'?

Right now we have 3 ESOL levels.  Level 1 is SPL 0-3;
Level 2 is SPL 4-5; Level 3 is SPL 6+; however, with
the REEP assessment, it seems that students could end
up being in level 3 forever. Any thoughts?
Suggestions? What do other learning centers do?

Thank you.
