Problem with oopt test Hello Everyone, I am a native speaker of English. I was born in Pasadena, California many years ago. When italki offered the OOPT test to show proficiency in English, I thought it was a good idea to take the test. During the second half of the test, my internet went out. I could not complete the test. This reflected upon my OOPT score and shows me to not totally understand my own language. When you look at the teachers here (and you find me) you will also find that I am one of the few who took the time and had the courage to take the test in my own language. The test had a British flair to it. I am not British. My English is American English. I had to listen well during the verbal part of the test because the accent was British. The real reason the OOPT score shows that I do not have complete mastery of my language is because the internet connection failed. I am hoping to be able to take the test again as this is very embarrassing to me. Two of my students pointed this out to me yesterday and were surprised as my English is good. I am telling all of you this because, honestly, I speak English and the students that I have had here for a year and a half will tell you that they have learned from me.

Lynne, I had seen your OOPT result some time ago but I was sure there must had been a problem, because I am sure you are a perfect English speaker. I say that because I have had 36 classes with you so far and I also have had many classes with other teachers (as anyone can see in my student profile), besides have been watching american movies and listening to radio stations from countries where English is the official language for many years, so I can assure anyone that you speak, and know, English like any other first rate teachers. Therefore, it's impossible for someone like you not to get the highest score in the test.

Lynne, you have no reason, no reason at all, to bother about your OOPT results because you are definitely a brilliant native speaker and an amazing teacher! As a learner, I am trying to make myself familiar with both American and British English, and to my mind the latter is more difficult to understand, particularly when coloured with a heavy accent as in those listening exercises. In addition, these exercises are usually tricky and if you have no experience in doing them or you are not focused enough, you can easily fail irrespective of how proficient you are. Anyway, I wish we could exchange language skills together with our OOPT results.:):):)
