Official exams

Our exam preparation classes are set-up to prepare each student to take official examinations ranging from the A2 level to the C2 level. As such, students receive instruction and extensive practice in all four key langue skill areas – Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing corresponding to the level they are in and, more importantly, in the level they wish to achieve.

As admission to a university or exchange program may require submitting an official certified language exam, our exam preparation classes are an ideal way of meeting that requirement. Over the past three years, over 70% of students taking our exam preparation classes have successfully completed their examinations earning a B2 or above language certification.

Each class focuses on two primary areas – the student gaining a practical understanding of and an ability to use the target language as well as how to prepare and take the examination. Experience has shown that in order to earn an official certification, knowing the language is not enough. Knowing the exam in detail and mastering how to approach and complete each task, is essential in order to maximize one’s score.

Our teaching staff is specifically trained on how to instruct and evaluate each exam they are responsible for teaching. Consequently, our exam focused approach is a methodology each instructor brings into the classroom. They focus on BOTH areas – learning the language AND learning the necessary exam techniques, thereby placing the student in the best possible position to successfully achieve their desired score on whatever exam they are taking.
