One other important TABE feature is the (relatively new) L TABE. This
formal assessment was designed for adults who had no reading skills, or
very limited skills. I have found it useful with not only adults born in
this country who want to learn to read, but also adult ESL students who
are minimally literate. It certainly beats the READ, ESLOA, or BEST tests
in terms of gaining an entry level of their literacy skills.  Carolyn
