Avant Assessment, partnered with the Center for Applied Second Language Studies (CASLS) at the University of Oregon, is a world leader in web-based second-language assessment. Founded in 2001, Avant Assessment has established a strong presence in the field of online second-language assessment.

We are now working on a Reading project for which we need Native Speakers of Farsi to help with the collection of authentic written material in that language. This is a short term, part time project.

We need a large number of acceptable written passages for this project. After all passages have been collected, it is possible that we will have an opportunity for you to help us with the writing of the test questions for this project. Of course, this will depend upon how quickly you send us the passages, and on the quality of those passages. If you are interested, we can discuss this at that time.

We pay $40 to $125 per accepted passage, depending on the difficulty level and length of the passage. We will provide training via the internet to help you understand the requirements and procedures you will follow. You will be paid for attending and completing the training session(s).

Please contact me if you are interested in participating in this project. I look forward to hearing from you.
