Why UIEO?
In today’s interconnected world, English stands as the most widely used language for communication, serving as the first global lingua franca. Its dominance is undeniable, as it is the most spoken language across the globe. Children who are proficient in English not only excel in examinations but also thrive in various aspects of their lives, paving the way for opportunities and success.
The Importance of Language Assessment
Assessing one's language skills is crucial in identifying and measuring educational achievement. The outcomes of such assessments significantly shape individuals' lives worldwide, forming an integral part of the educational process. Language proficiency assessments are not limited to academic settings; they are utilized across various fields to guide important decisions.
