Unlike traditional language tests, this assessment is built around natural conversation and everyday interaction.

A Different Way to Assess Speaking Ability

The TalkMe Speaking Test moves away from formal question-based testing and focuses on how people actually communicate.

Here’s what makes it different:

  • Based on real conversation
    The test does not rely on rigid exam-style prompts. Instead, your level is assessed through natural dialogue.

  • Focused on practical communication
    It looks at how you use English in real situations, rather than how well you recall memorized answers or rules.

  • Holistic ability-oriented
    Your proficiency is evaluated through overall communicative performance, not isolated language components.

  • Short and approachable
    The test is a relaxed 5–10 minute conversation on everyday topics.

The aim is to reflect real usage — not exam behavior.

How It Helps Learners

The Speaking Test serves as a practical reference point during the learning process.

It can help you:

  • Understand your current English level
    Because it’s based on real interaction, the result may better reflect how you actually speak.

  • Identify areas to improve
    Highlight communication gaps that may not be obvious during regular study.

  • Prepare for real-life goals
    Such as job interviews, studying abroad, or improving daily communication.

  • Set clearer learning objectives
    Use your results to guide more targeted learning plans.

  • Track progress over time
    Repeating the test allows you to monitor improvement.

In this sense, the test functions as a learning tool — not a certification.

How It Differs from TOEFL and IELTS

The TalkMe Speaking Test is not intended to replace standardized exams like TOEFL or IELTS.
