Program details

Cambridge ESOL exams are the world’s leading range of certificates for learners of English. Each year they are taken by over 1.75 million people, in 135 countries and are recognised by universities and employers throughout the world.

ELC’s Cambridge Exam Preparation courses will enable you to make progress in your all-round English ability while developing skills and techniques for exam success.

ELC is an approved Cambridge ESOL Computer-Based Test centre so you will get take your final test at the school so you will be in familiar, comfortable surroundings. There are many advantages to the computer-based testing system and you will receive extensive training. The speaking test is still face-to-face and the examiners come to the school to test you.

This preparation course is a closed one which means all students start and finish their course at the same time as well as take the test on the same day. Because of this, our students have a high level of motivation and focus and this also means our students work together as a team. To help achieve this we also organise Cambridge-only social events to give you a chance to bond with your class as well as your teacher.
