We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.
In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have taken the trouble to respond to the query.

I have been involved in test development for the Maori language of New Zealand. I am currently working on my Ph.D. and am looking for proficiency tests for testing indigenous languages. The tests are for primary school children, specifically 8-13 year olds in listening, speaking and writing. My PhD is focused on writing.
