Examinations
Special preparation courses are offered for the following examinations
in English:
Cambridge Preliminary English Test, Cambridge First Certificate,
Cambridge Advanced English, Cambridge Proficiency in English, IELTS,
TOEFL and TOEIC. These courses are available in Great
Britain and Ireland only.
Aim and Content
The course focuses clearly on the examination in question. The aim
is to raise the student’s linguistic standard significantly
by doing solid examination-orientated practice in the four skills
areas, and to extend and improve their oral/aural skills informally
after class. Special examination preparation materials are provided,
covering all aspects of the examination, and students may request
to emphasize certain skills areas according to individual need. The
examination preparation materials may be kept by the student.
Hours and Duration
Students may choose 15, 20, 25 or 30 hours’ individual class
per week. The minimum course length is 1 week, though courses of
2 or 3 weeks are normally recommended for this course, depending
on individual circumstances. This course usually represents an additional
and supportive (or preliminary) element to students’ longer-term
preparation for the examination in their home country.
Dates
Courses are available at any time of year, including Christmas and
New Year, and normally run from Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to
Sunday. Other start days may be possible, subject to availability.
Note: a week is a full 7 days and if students arrive on a Saturday
they may leave on a Saturday. |
