• Develop effective communication skills
The Cambridge ESOL exams cover all four language skills – listening, speaking,
reading and writing – as well as testing your use of grammar and vocabulary. They
include a range of different types of question which test how well you can use
English, so that you develop the full range of skills you need to communicate
effectively in a variety of contexts.
• A world of opportunity
Thousands of employers, universities and government departments around the
world recognise Cambridge ESOL examinations, so a Cambridge ESOL exam is a
valuable qualification to have when you need to provide evidence of your level of
English for a job or when you apply for a place to study.
• Quality you can trust
We test all our questions on candidates before we put them into a ‘live' examination.
This makes sure that they are fair, at the right level, that the content is suitable for all
candidates and that you have enough time to answer them. You can therefore be sure
that your result is a true measure of your level of English.
University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations (Cambridge ESOL) offers the world’s leading
range of qualifications for learners and teachers of English. More than 2 million people
in over 130 countries take Cambridge ESOL exams each year.
