"Cheryl, I would like to give you the results of my Versant/Prospeak (ordinate) phone pass test. My scores have significantly improved after only 3 sessions with you. Though I was already classified as at the level of a native American speaker on my first assessment, I improved tremendously on fluency and pronunciation by 7 points and 5 points (from a total of 80 points) respectively. You can use the results as endorsement of your product because they are objective and measurable. Here are the results:"
First test : April 11, 2007
Overall Score : 78 (Native American speaker) with 80 as the perfect score and native American speaker range 72-80
Sentence Mastery: 80
Vocabulary: 80
Fluency : 63
Pronunciation : 72
Second test : May 8, 2007 (after 3 sessions with Cheryl Posey/Speaking Your Best)
