Many EFL students study English in order to pass exams that will enable them to gain a visa for a particular country, go to university abroad or to prove their English ability for a job. The Cambridge English exams are some of the most popular in the world and include exams tailored towards young learners, general English skills, academic English and business English. Throughout your career as an English teacher you are likely to have students that need help in preparing for one of these exams.
These tests are designed for children in primary or lower-secondary education. There are three tests in total which are: Starters, Movers, and Flyers. Each test covers reading, writing, listening and speaking. The tests are usually taken within the child’s school but can also be taken at local Cambridge test centres.
These tests are for learners who live, work or study in England, Wales or Northern Ireland and are aimed at students over the age of 16. There are five levels with each level encompassing reading, writing, speaking and listening skills. The tests cover use of English in everyday contexts.
Also know as Key English Test or KET, this test is aimed at learners who have left school and is at the A2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This is a basic level English qualification that is accepted by many companies around the world.
Also known as PET, this is a B1 level test on the CEFR and covers everyday English use but at a higher level than the Key test.
This is a B2 or upper-intermediate level test for everyday English and is also known as the First Certificate in English or FCE.
This is a high level test that proves students have an excellent understanding of the English language. The certificate is accepted by universities as proof that the student has the ability to study in the English language. It is also accepted by employers around the world and can be used for visa applications to certain English speaking countries.
This is the highest level exam from Cambridge and demonstrates that the student is capable of communicating with the fluency of a native English speaker.
This is the most popular English language test for those wanting live, work or study in English speaking countries. As a TEFL teacher you are very likely to have at least one or two students that need help with preparation for an IELTS exam. There are two different tests, one for general English skills and one for academic English.
These tests are available at three different levels; Preliminary (Level B1), Vantage (Level B2), and Higher (Level C1). The tests are aimed at those already in a business environment, either working or studying and basic knowledge of business related vocabulary is required. Passing these exams shows the ability to function in English in an international business setting.
This is a high-level qualification for those seeking a career in international law.
This is another high-level qualification for people wanting to work in the global finance industry.
Cambridge English provides plenty of paid for and free resources for teachers and learners. These include practice tests, vocabulary lists, lesson plans, activities and more.
