Course Profile: Exam Preparation Combination
Exam preparation courses combine working in a small group to develop speaking and listening communication fluency. Reflecting real world and workplace multi-level communication scenarios, learn how to communicate effectively across different cultures and differing levels of English. Maximum 5 students per group.
Please note the Effective Communication group is a multi-level class for B1 to C1 participants. We believe this reflects real world multi-level communication scenarios our clients face on a regular basis.
Exam techniques, vocabulary, grammar and skills for the specific exam you are preparing for are covered in the 1-to-1 classes.
What to expect:

- Improve speaking and listening communication skills in English
- Work on grammatical accuracy
- Practise past exam papers: reading, writing & listening
- Do mock speaking exams under test conditions
You are responsible for booking the exam on a suitable date and location. Cambridge exams cost between 95 GBP - 195 GBP depending on which exam you sit.
The IELTS exam costs £180 at the local examination centre in Edinburgh in 2020.
