You'll get a meaningful profile of skills for each learner, so you can be sure you understand a student's strengths and needs and aren't overlooking something crucial. Unlike most other tests, TILLS also provides diagnostic accuracy in "age bands" meaningful to the development of language and literacy skills, so you'll have the evidence base you need to determine if test scores reflect typical or impaired performance. And if you're an experienced clinician, you can finish TILLS in just 90 minutes or less-which means you'll spend less time testing and more time helping students and planning interventions.Here is a link to a video introducing TILLS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJh9qtkkLQs
