The exam will consist of four papers instead of five.
The new exam will be approximately 30 minutes shorter than previously.
The exam will feature new tasks and testing focuses in the Writing and Speaking papers.

What people say

  • Aside from being probably the most supportive colleague I have ever worked with, Sam is a knowledgeable and skilled language trainer. His lessons are always designed with a clear focus and a well-thought plan, keeping students’ needs and interests always at the forefront. As a result, students have not only a better understanding of the language being taught, but also a better idea of how to move forward with their own language development. Andrew Davis (Cambridge Delta)
    Senior Language Trainer
