Aptitude Testing (MLAT)
We are one of the few UK-based approved providers of the official Modern Language Aptitude Test (MLAT), which is designed to assess native English speakers’ likeliness to succeed in learning a foreign language.
MLAT is used by many western governments and international organisations to predict success in learning all basic communication skills, but particularly speaking and listening.



The MLAT test can be used as a recruitment tool, to assist hiring managers with appointments for foreign postings, or as a useful diagnostic tool to determine how long it may take a candidate to learn a language. Language aptitude test scores can alternatively be used to place students into groupings, where language teachers can adapt the course pace to suit the students.
The MLAT can also be used to diagnose a foreign language learning difficulty, such as dyslexia, and adaptions can be made to the learning programme to support the student in language learning.
