Introduction to Oral Proficiency Levels is designed to help Spanish language teachers gain an understanding of the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines for Speaking and to practice evaluating proficiency levels of Spanish speakers.
We at COERLL are committed to developing quality open educational resources (OER) for language teachers and students. In this effort, we have given you access to this resource via Google Docs. We encourage you to use and edit the resource for your purposes and to share the materials with others.
