Supervisors

From our initial discussions with Language Learning Solutions to our ongoing work with the organization, we have been impressed by the level of professionalism among their staff and the high quality of their assessment tools. LLS continues to provide New Jersey with exceptional customer service in responding to standards-driven assessment needs both on the state and district level.

Janis Jensen - World Languages Coordinator New Jersey Department of Education

The STAMP assessment developed by LLS addressed a longstanding need for me as a district foreign language administrator. STAMP provided teacher, student and administrator friendly technology to assess student foreign language proficiency in an objective manner.
Students took the STAMP assessments with comfort and with confidence in themselves. The technology was comfortable for them to handle as individuals.
Teachers and administrators found the results and data delivered in a usable manner. The data enabled them to address student placement issues, and local, state, and federal reports with ease.
STAMP could be considered a dream come true!

Rita Oleksak - World Language Supervisor, Springfield Public Schools, Springfield, Mass

LLS has been very easy and flexible to work with. They always take the time to answer our questions about ClassPak and especially STAMP. It is evident that they truly go well beyond the call of duty to help their clients. Thanks, LLS!

Teachers

"As a whole, the on-line testing is a wonderful idea. It gives all teachers an opportunity to see exactly where their students fall in comparison to other schools. It also lets us know what skills we need to add, review, stress, etc. It is also a wonderful challenge for the students. The way the program is set up to increase or decrease levels of difficulty as testing is taking place is fantastic. I truly hope that we will be given the opportunity to administer the STAMP test next year."
"The whole experience was excellent for teachers and students."

Students

"The STAMP test was fun! I feel that the test was a good way to inform me on where I was and where the level of my ability was at."

"The STAMP test was very easy to get through if you knew what you were doing. I really liked the graphics and the questions. I felt like I was really able to read real Spanish."

"I think the STAMP test presents a lot of interesting graphics and questions, but more importantly, it portrayed situations where it seems you would actually use the language."

"The speaking part was a lot of fun. I liked to hear what I said in Japanese and do it again if I didn't like it."
