Why I love teaching IELTS and CPE Cambridge University ESOL Examinations!

In order for the candidate to receive a 7.5 in IELTS they would have to be quite proficient

For an CPE candidate to achieve a grade A they would have to be a fully excelled proficiency

Thus, I pride on having taught such candidates in such abundance. In my humble opinion, both examinations are a vital bridge either to further education as in Academic IELTS and CPE or to open doors to a more prosperous future in a new foreign country, where the English Language is a must. A literary passport if you will to a smoother transition
