Most universities use screening methods for oral
English proficiency for international teaching
assistants, which may be standardized oral English
tests (TOEFL or TSE) or tests based on micro teaching

oral English proficiency. POET is intended to be an
integral part of the language instruction program and
Purdue s educational framework. This book describes
how a test preparation method, POET Tutorial, can
help to embed the test in the local context by
offering more than test practice. Alongside format

Tutorial implementation by examining examinees test
format knowledge and their opinions about the
tutorial s helpfulness. This book should be
