What is Included in Cambridge English Admissions Test Tutoring?
Our tutoring equips students with the skills needed to excel in Cambridge’s English admissions process, through focused preparation.
Cambridge places a premium on close reading skills. Our tutors help you refine your approach with plenty of unseen text exercises and discussion of passages of poetry, prose and drama. They will improve your critical vocabulary and interpretive abilities to help you develop interesting, persuasive readings.
The Cambridge English admissions test assesses your ability to write a well-argued essay. Our tutors help you develop the skills needed to do so – from responding to unseen texts, to planning, structuring, and writing a strong, persuasive essay that flows well.
Practice makes perfect, so our tutors will assign you realistic mock tests and mark your essays. They will provide detailed feedback and help you address any areas of critical or literary weakness which are holding back your performance.
This comprehensive approach ensures students are fully prepared to meet the demands of Cambridge’s rigorous English admissions requirements.
