About this book
Reviews
“The central topic of this book is the assessment of English language proficiency and academic literacy needs of students to enable them to cope with the demands of study at university. … This book is highly recommended. It will be an essential go-to resource not only for those with an interest in PELAs, but also for those with a broader interest in English language assessment issues.” (NewZealand Studies in Applied Linguistics (NZSAL), Vol. 22 (1), 2016)
