Here are some TOEIC speaking style tests that I’ve used in my own speaking exam preparation classes. You can use them in order to do a pre and post evaluation of your students.
They can also be used as very simple level tests for your speaking or conversation classes, if you’re required to do them by your school.
If you want some help with evaluation check out this ESL Speaking Rubric that I use in my own classes.
