What is your level of English?
Don’t worry – we’ll walk you through it. Before booking, you are required to submit a 200-250 word essay on a given title which will be reviewed by our exam coordinator. However, it will be your second test which determines allocation to a class. This is held on your first day at the school to re-confirm your level. These tests are conducted for the sole purpose of ensuring you follow your course at the right level in order to achieve your academic goals. Get in touch with our sales team today to receive your essay title and begin your exam preparation course.
