Do you speak English?

English is one of the most important languages in the world. If you' re looking for a job or just want to improve your level of language to be able to become friend with English speakers, you should take into account one of the many online courses.

I needed some info about courses and online I found all I was looking for. There is plenty of courses: for children and beginners, for an elementary, intermediate or advanced level and even for business need.
In some websites you can also find specific language and culture tests, about how to say something in English or about festivities and cultural curiosities related to Britain. In this period there are even funny and interesting Christmas tests about typical food, greetings, presents and entertainments. You can test your knowledge of English language and culture and you can invite other friends or relatives to do the same. English should be promoted everywhere as a necessary foreign language.

Online courses offer exercises on grammar, functions and vocabulary. You can test yourself after every lesson and decide which of the ESOL exams - KET, PET or FCE - you should consider. You can also exercise yourself before trying to get the more difficult TOEFL and IELTS certificate, which obviously require a high preparation.

Once you have finished the test, you can do one of the practice papers on the website andsee how difficult it is for you. If it is too easy, you should think about doing the next most difficult exam. If it is too hard, then perhaps you need to practice some more!

Remember that the beginners course will help you prepare for the KET, the Elementary course will help your practice for the PET and Intermediate will help your studies for the FCE. I followed every step in order to be ready for the following exam.

You can also check your progress whenever you want. When you have finished the first three units of the course, you can test your progress clicking somewhere. This is the same test for Elementary to Advanced, so if you are doing the Elementary, you should expect to score only about a third as many points as someone doing the advanced course.

Get ready then to become a skilled English speaker! Enjoy it!
