Some students wish to take the exam and other do not. The language skills taught are the same and additional exam practice will be given depending on the needs of the students in the class.
*suitable for Short-term Study Visas
There is no better way to improve your General English and to get an internationally-recognised English language exam than to take a Cambridge Exam Preparation Course.
Here at the Islington Centre for English, we run courses for both the First Certificate of English (FCE) and the Cambridge Advanced English (CAE). These are General English exams that really lift your level of English proficiency whilst also giving you the chance to prove your English skills with a recognised English language certificate.
Passing the Cambridge exam will enhance your CV and show any potential employer you have a good level of English. Indeed, an FCE pass is the level at which someone can 'function well in an English-speaking office environment.' The more advanced CAE certificate is now accepted for entrance in nearly as many universities as IELTS.
Cambridge Exam Preparation Course times:
- Mornings: 9.15am to 12.15pm (up to 12 hours 30 minutes with a teacher per week)
- Tuesday & Thursday Evenings: 6.30pm to 8.30pm (up to 3 hours 30 mins with a teacher per week plus break)
NB Lessons are scheduled to have a 30-minute in any 3-hour block. However, teachers and students may agree to finish 15 minutes early with a reduced 15-minute break. The important number is the pure hours with a teacher.
