These exams comprise different papers testing students’ English language and skills knowledge; namely pronunciation / speaking, listening, reading, writing, and vocabulary / grammar.
For General English, the most important exams are: F.C.E (First Certificate in English), C.A.E (Certificate in Advanced English), and C.P.E (Certificate of Proficiency in English).
First is the gold standard of English language learning, the level to which the majority of students aspire. It is especially recognised by employers as proof of a candidate’s high-level competence in the language.
Advanced is an advanced qualification in English for those who wish to use English for professional or study purposes. It is recognised by most British universities, and in other countries, as proof that the holder has the language ability to follow a course of study in the medium of English.
Proficiency is the highest level exam for English language learning, so holders of this certificate are internationally recognised as learners who have achieved an extremely high level of skill in the English language.

Core Programme: Cambridge English Examination Preparation
If you are unsure whether your English level is high enough, please contact the school or your educational consultant who will arrange for you to take a test.
If your level is a little too low, you can join a General English Course before you start the exam course.
On the first day, you are given a comprehensive test to identify your exact level. You are then placed in a class of students at your level, all preparing for the same examination. For some Cambridge English exams there may be several “micro-levels”, each at a slightly different level from the others, and ranging from ‘C’ to ‘A’ grade expectations.
Your course will build your confidence and accuracy in all forms of the language. You will receive extensive training in examination techniques, and sit at least one mock examination. Your speaking will abilities will be personally assessed by senior members of the teaching staff on most courses.
All Cambridge English teachers at BEET have many years of experience delivering the preparation courses, so you can be assured that we have extensive knowledge of the requirements of the Cambridge English examining board.
BEET is a major centre of Cambridge English examination courses, producing excellent results.
Success at BEET is due to four main qualities:
