Not sure which one you need?

Start with the English assessment. It estimates your level across Language Use, Reading and Listening, and points you at the pathway that matches it.

The assessment covers Language Use, Reading and Listening. Speaking is assessed separately with a teacher when you enrol.

How it works

The same five steps for every learner, whichever pathway you end up on.

  1. Assess

    Take the English assessment and find out where your English actually is today.

  2. Identify level and goal

    We read the result with you and confirm what you are aiming for.

  3. Choose your pathway

    General proficiency, IELTS or TOEFL — whichever serves the goal you named.

  4. Learn and progress

    Study at the level you were placed at, with your progress reviewed as you go.

    Move up a level, sit your exam, or use the English you came here for.
