    The aim of this unit is to reflect upon, justify and evaluate two assessment methods and decisions in my specialist area, which is ESOL. The activities chosen as examples of tasks based on the assessment methods used in my observation (multiple choice and oral questions) are part of an ESOL entry 1 diagnostic assessment pack available at the talent (training adult literacy, ESOL and numeracy teachers) website.
