What Is Included in Our Cambridge MML Admissions Test Tutoring?

Our MML admissions test tutoring comprehensively prepares you with all the skills needed to score high marks.

Our tutors begin by assessing your linguistic and essay-writing ability. They then prepare a personalised learning plan designed to address your areas for improvement, achieving as much progress as possible before you take the test.  

Our tutors are modern languages graduates from Cambridge or Oxford. They have extensive experience in preparing students for the MML Admissions Test and Cambridge’s competitive application process.

A deep understanding of grammar and vocabulary in your chosen language is vital for a good performance in the admissions test. Accurate self-expression in a foreign language is key to securing higher marks. Our tutors will identify any weaknesses or gaps in your knowledge and set grammar exercises and vocab tests to ensure you have a thorough foundation.

Linguistic skills are essential, but most of the marks available in the MML admissions test are for writing persuasive essays which respond well to unseen texts. Our tutors will teach you how to plan and write essays that will impress the admissions team, and also to build the analytical skills needed to score highly. 

We incorporate plenty of practice exercises and mock exams into our tutoring. Our tutors will mark your essays and provide comprehensive feedback to refine your performance and build your familiarity with the test.

How to Prepare for the Cambridge MML Admissions Test

Preparing for the Cambridge MML Admissions Test requires a strategic and focused approach. The test evaluates your ability to respond critically and analytically to a given text, both in a foreign language you wish to study and in English. 

For Section A, focus on improving your ability to write clearly and accurately in the chosen foreign language. This includes understanding grammar fundamentals such as verb tenses, sentence structure, and gender/number agreement. Aim to use a variety of vocabulary and complex sentence structures to showcase your proficiency. Practice summarising texts by identifying main ideas and rephrasing them in your own words.  

For Section B, which is written in English, refine your skills in analysing and interpreting texts. Pay attention to how authors use language to persuade or inform, such as through rhetorical devices, linguistic style, and structure. You don’t need to know lots of technical literary terminology – the important thing is not to spot a device but to explain its effect. Be careful not just to list your observations, as clear and organised argumentation is vital to score highly. 

Working with an experienced MML admissions test tutor can make all the difference to your preparation. They can identify your strengths and weaknesses, refine your skills, and mark your practice essays. A good tutor will have accrued invaluable advice over their years of experience and can pass on insider tips to boost your grades.
