Exam Preparation Courses and Proficiency Testing
Preparing Students for the Exam
Testing is important in the school environment. These tests are used to measure
overall language proficiency and include reading, writing, speaking and listening.
Proficiency testing can help students in at least two ways. Firstly, such tests can help create positive attitudes and motivation
within the ESL classroom. Students experience a sense of accomplishment and
this contributes to a positive tone.
Secondly, these tests assist students in mastering the language. They are helped
when they study for exams and when these exams are returned to them and discussed.
The Oxford and Cambridge Proficiency tests are the most widely used of all types of
commercial ESL exams. These tests reveal overall ability in the language as well as
capabilities in a specific area(such as listening).
Most schools and students choose and prefer the Oxford and Cambridge ESOL exams
because the certificates are well respected and recognized by many educational
organisations and employers around the world.
