Check your students’ progress

and save yourself time with
New Headway Quick Tick Tests,
a set of easy-to-mark review tests
for all levels of New Headway.
With two tests per level, you can check students’ progress halfway through
the course and then at the end of the course.
The questions cover grammar and vocabulary, and all questions are
multiple choice. Answer cards are provided in the pocket on the inside
front cover (see opposite) so you can mark the tests quickly.

! Mark a test in
under a minute
To create the answer cards:
• Separate the sheet of card (opposite) into three answer cards.
There are answers for two levels per card – one level on each side.
• Use the pocket opposite to keep the cards safe.

To mark a test:
• Select the level of answer card you want, e.g. Beginner.
• Turn it so the answers you need are on the right-hand edge of the card –
e.g. Units 1-7.
• Place the answer card on the test page next to your student’s answers and see
at a glance which ones are correct. You can now mark them quickly and easily.
