FCE EXAM PREPARATION COURSE

FCE (First Certificate in English) is an exam for people who are able to use everyday written and spoken English at an upper-intermediate level. It is one of of the most popular exams in English as a foreign language. The certificate is widely recognised around the world for both business and study purposes.

The FCE exam can be taken only four times a year: in March, June, August and December. The exam takes place in authorised exam centres approved by Unversity of Camridge. The exam consists of followin parts 

a) Use of English - written part
b) Reading - written part
c) Listening -  written part
d) Writing - written part
e) Speaking - oral part

Our syllabus mirrors the structure of the exam. During the course all parts of the exam and all types of exam tasks are covered. The teacher offers help on how to approach each task, how to manage your time during the exam and how to verify your answers before handing in the answer sheet.

Besides, the syllabus covers the review of the main grammar aspects and expands the vocabulary which might be useful at the exam. At the end of the course we organize a mock exam which can help students plan a final revision before the exam.

The course is delivered by two teachers: Polish - responsible for listening, reading and grammar-focused elements of the exam preparation and Irish - who focuses on writing and oral and colloquial elements of the exam preparation. Both teachers have excellent command of English and extensive professional experience as teachers of English to foreigners.
