  This article offers an insight into useful methods of evaluating language proficiency in students. It focusses on a couple of essential principles for valid and fair testing. Starting from three basic questions a teacher must consider before drawing up a test (why, what and how), the article discusses the different reasons for testing. Finally three criteria for quality (validity, consistence and achievability) are taken into account, as well as possible distortions created by different tests in different contexts. The article concludes with a statement about the importance of variation and the critical approach of tests as good testing is important for both teachers and students.

  This article considers the examination methods for L2 learners in Hungary. A short history of past and current methods of examination for Dutch learners is covered in order to attest to the evolution in complexity and effectiveness that has taken place over the course of the years. The theoretical, statutory side of L2 examination is briefly taken into account, but the focus is on the practical aspect of L2 examination. The different elements of an ideal exam (reading, listening, writing and speaking proficiency, and correctness) are discussed with attention to detail and with the use of examples.
