Why study for a Cambridge exam?

The Cambridge ESOL General English suite of exams has a wide choice of certificates reflecting the very different needs and abilities of people. These certificates cover basic exams for those beginning to learn English, through to advanced certificates for those who have attained a high level of fluency. A Cambridge certificate never expires, and will not need to be renewed — it is an achievement for life. The Cambridge exams are recognised around the world by thousands of employers, universities and government ministries as proof of ability to use English.

Testimonials

Contacting English for Life to help with my preparation for the Cambridge FCE test was a great decision. Ian Synnott, really knows these tests inside out and so he was able to prepare lessons for me, with individual advice and correction, to address my weaknesses in each of the papers. I passed FCE and I'm now planning to tackle CAE. Thank you EfL. I don't know how I would succeed without you!
