Levels tailored to your needs
Skills for English provides an accurate measure of language proficiency through practical and realistic tasks which you would expect to undertake in an English-speaking environment.

That way, you know you are preparing for and taking precisely the level of test you need for your chosen purpose – no more, no less.
Computer-based testing for all skills
All Skills for English tests use computer-based delivery for all skills. Reading and listening are automatically marked during the test session itself; speaking and writing are recorded digitally during the test session and marked by trained assessors (who have no visibility of your details) after you’ve finished. It follows that you can test all the components in succession in a single session and get your results in as little as 14 days.
Speaking
First, you have to introduce yourself. Then you will listen to a series of recordings and respond to recorded questions and tasks that will be manifested on the screen. You will do this by registering your spoken answers.
Listening
The student will listen to several recordings of spoken English. These will feature one or more speakers. After each, the student should answer a series of multiple-choice or short-word-answer questions.
Reading
The student will see a series of texts of varying lengths on screen. Then they will be asked multiple questions about them in different formats. These include multiple-choice, true/false/not given, answer matching, or written responses.
Writing
The examiner will give the candidate two tasks, which may be on any relevant topic. Thus, they have to organize and complete an extended written response for each part. The candidate has to address the task and include the main keywords of the topic.
When you receive your results, you will be given details of the individual outcome (pass/fail) for each skill taken, plus your overall test outcome (also pass/fail): you need to pass each of the skills taken to pass the test overall.
