According to the Ministry of Education's latest announcement, English option teachers are advised to determine their CEFR English proficiency level before 31 December 2020. This iniative, termed CEFR Readiness (CEFR-R), is part of the Ministry's overall vision to align the teaching and learning of English language within our Education system to the CEFR framework. Under CEFR-R, English option teachers who are instructing non-teaching students are required to achieve a minimum overall CEFR level of C1, whereas English option teachers who are instructing teaching students are required to achieve a minimum overall CEFR level of C2. For more information about CEFR-R, please contact the English Language Teaching Centre (ELTC).

What Makes the Cambridge Linguaskill Experience Different from Other Tests?

Take the Test From Home

Unlike other English tests which require you to physically travel to a test centre, Cambridge Linguaskill can be taken remotely, wherever you are. Furthermore, Cambridge Linguaskill can be remotely proctored to ensure that the integrity of the test is preserved.

An Easy Test to Take

While Cambridge Linguaskill is not an easy test to score on, it is an easy test to sit for. There are no pen-and-paper or physical examiners involved. In addition, test takers determine their own pace of testing, as long as they are within the available time limit.

Extremely Fast Results

Modular Skills Testing

In Cambridge Linguaskill, Reading & Listening, Writing, and Speaking skills are all tested separately.
