Prepare Yourself For First Certificate (FCE)
Tips & Techniques For Every Section Of The Exam
Self paced
Do you want to have a B2 English certificate?
Do you want to get into an English speaking university?
Do you want to improve your job prospects?
This course is designed to help you prepare yourself for the Cambridge: First Certificate (FCE) B2 level English exam. This is a globally recognised language exam – accepted by lots of education institutions and work institutions around the world!
I've had loads of students pass this exam and I know exactly what the examiners are looking for. I detail this throughout the course and give you all the best tips, techniques and resources to effectively prepare yourself. I go through each section of the exam giving you the best advice on how to answer the questions, so hopefully it won't be necessary for you to spend lots of extra money on lessons.
I've had to learn the best way to prepare for this exam myself in order to get all my students to pass it over the last few years. I go through each individual exam section, show you the techniques and allow you to practise these with live examples. By the end of the course you will know exactly what to do in order to best prepare yourself.
There is no other course that I have found which focuses on and instructs you how to pass each section of this exam, using exam samples for practice exercises. This course allows you to concentrate specifically on what you need to do in order to pass the exam.
The course comprises 10 powerpoint presentation slides. There are no videos, documents or other tests, although advice on self preparation and homework suggestions are given.
The lesson programme is as follows:

Background
My name is Rory and I am a native English teacher from Cambridgeshire, England. I teach English lessons online for Student Laguages (studentlanguages.com). I lived in Milan for 2 years, where I learnt to speak Italian. At the moment I am learning to speak Spanish.
Passions and Hobbies
Travelling is one of my biggest passions. I have been to many places across Europe. I have also travelled to Australia and South East Asia. For this reason I have met and taught many students from around the world.
I like: watching films, reading, listening to music (all varieties), football, golf and fishing.
Teaching Qualifications And Experience
My love for English teaching began in Milan, Italy. This is where I gained my formal qualification, completing my QCF, Ofqual, CEA University of Cambridge Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA). Subsequently, a globally recognised language centre in London hired me. I joined their team of experienced teachers and taught a variety of English classes. I then moved to Cambridgeshire. This is where I started teaching Cambridge Exam Preparation classes at another language school.
My teaching career has focussed on delivering Cambridge English: First (FCE) and Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE) lessons. Helping students to prepare for and pass the FCE and CAE exams has been extremely fulfilling. I enjoy teaching these classes and I like the exam format for these exams.
