I want to express my deepest gratitude to the CELPIP Test channel for sharing this fantastic video. A massive round of applause goes out to Brandi; she truly is an exceptional teacher. I followed every one of her recommendations for both Writing Task 1 and Task 2, and the outcome was absolutely incredible-I scored a perfect 12 on my CELPIP test. It's worth mentioning that I realized there are multiple approaches one can take when tackling these tasks. However, I made the decision to wholeheartedly follow Brandi's advice, and it delivered outstanding results! Her explanations were incredibly insightful and, without a doubt, the best ones out there. Brandi, you are simply the best!

[@kubishek6956]

congrats! what topics did you get on your task 1 and 2?

[@LovinglivingS]

Respect your concern for making it work for us ❤thanks a lot, nowhere else have I seen the educational board to directly teach test takers from the scratch and absolutely everything by themselves . It’s like getting the world-class teachers over there.

[@shl9275]

When Brandi reads a full text it helps a lot for the pronunciation, Thank you so much Brandi.

[@gurleenkaur1818]

She is such a good tutor . Everything was perfectly explained.

[@flavius220988]

The test wasn't hard. However, the fact that I was next to 3 people taking the test and speaking at the same time was really distracting, especially since we were made aware not to speak too loud. I was very inhibited. Sometimes I was the only one speaking while it was completely quiet. I never had to take a test like this.

[@rachaelfrancis7900]

Tha ks Brandi, I'm actually writting on the 30th. I guess your tutoring will help me get the required band, thanks a bunch!!!!

[@jtrcfchannel9396]

Thank you so much... God Bless

[@eamrutnagar80]

Thank you very much for sharing your expertise. I got my result last week with 11 in writing. I just simply followed your format and tips and it worked out. Once again guys thanks for your support 😊.

Hi. Can we use connectors like, "to start with, first of all, additionally, moreover, furthermore, on the other side" etc to start the para or while adding another idea in the paragraph.

[@harpalvirk6735]

Great video

[@manjinderkaur3066]

Thanks Celpip team for such wonderful sessions.

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

*Thank you Brandi and Aswathi. Namaste. I hope there's also a representative from the Philippines in this Celpip live. Like what Aswathi is doing from India.*

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hello! Thank you for enjoying our videos. Please note that our videos are created and hosted by employees at Paragon Testing Enterprises and are aimed at supporting all our test takers. We don't have country-specific representatives in our videos. We do, however, have a test centre and a prep program in the Philippines, you can find more about that here: www.celpip.ca/prepare-for-celpip/prep-programs/ www.celpip.ca/country/philippines/

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

@@CELPIPOfficial Thank you. I live here in Toronto. I am watching some of your videos for the last three days. I'm a little bit nervous because my Celpip exam is after seven days from now. I hope I could catch up more.

[@shreyavaghela2347]

Is it okay if I write general statement and my preference ( state my opinion) in introduction paragraph? Or I have to mention reasons?

Thank you for pretty in formation

[@adedoyingiwa2168]

Big shout out to Brandi and Aswathi, Brandi especially. I had my exams in April 2024 but haven't had the time to drop a comment. I promised myself that I was going to leave a comment if all things went well for me. My overall band was 11 (I am still in shock by the way) Writing 11, Speaking 11, Listening 10, Reading 10. All thanks to these preparation videos and some practice videos on KZbin. I also had less time to practice due to my multiple jobs. I studied rigorously for about a week or less before the exam. I do not advise this as I was under a lot of pressure. I am also from Nigeria by the way and I wrote my exam in Lagos, Nigeria. Good luck to everyone prepping for their exam. The time of this comment is 11:14am, 7th of June 2024.

[@kookytune]

Do we have to write the chosen option on the top of our answer in the test? anyone!!!???

[@rabiesoliman6140]

Excellent presentation Do you have free test for CELPIP???

[@tribhuwantiwari254]

I have a question related to task 2 If option selected by mistake is different than the explanation, should it be considered completely wrong and award 0😢

[@sarabjeetsingh1412]

Hi, if word count is 150 then I believe I don’t penalised right?

[@angelicaaremu4197]

Can I number my points.

[@lizhentang5573]

Instead of 'you', we can use 'people', 'human', 'residents'

[@reetrandhawa5921]

Can somebody answer me back please , in celpip there are two options given . If i choose option A and i don’t have enough idea to discuss in paragraph 3 . Can i mention option b as a negative ?? For an example they are saying wether to keep paper news or online new I choose online . Can i also elucidate option b online . Can i mention cons about paper news ?? Thank you in advance.

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi Reet! This question has been asked by one of our viewers in the Q&A section. You can click on 43:17 to find the answer to your question.

[@Er.RamanMehra]

Yes! Giving example and support your reason, you can use second option as negetive.

[@lukasfarah7298]

Can we talk in a paragraph why the other option is a the best as well?

[@jyoti137]

Hello, In the last question asked by anu, can we use personal pronouns in Informal Emails. For example : If I am writing to a friend can I write ' I'm hoping that you'll be in the city because I want you to arrange a party for my classmates. Will it be a right tone? Please let me know

Plz, can u share the time of the next session..

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi Aamira. The date and time for the next session are mentioned at the end of each episode. We have a great episode on the job market during COVID-19 on March 23rd, at 9:30 AM PST. If you're only looking for Brandi's lessons, join us on 6th April at 9:30 AM PST.

[@nasreensultana1412]

[@eminem1522]

[@Agaur94]

How to score our writing and speaking mock test?

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi Aayush! If you're planning to do a self-directed study, you can go through our Score Comparison Chart to understand how we rate Speaking and Writing responses by level. You will then be able to assess your responses accordingly. www.celpip.ca/prepare-for-celpip/score-comparison-chart/. If you prefer that your responses be rated by a professional, you can join a prep program from our list of licensed prep providers. www.celpip.ca/prepare-for-celpip/prep-programs/

[@sandeepjawandha9930]

Can we correct spelling by right click

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi Sandeep! Our spell check feature will give you a drop-down menu of possible spellings from which you will have to choose the right one. The spell check does not correct the spelling.

[@Susy-BC-Realtor]

Hi Brandi, can I please send you my writing for you to rate it and give me some tips to improve it?

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi IshikaSusy. I am happy to provide helpful tips and skills practice for our viewers throughout our presentations, but I am not a rater, so I could not rate any sample responses. Paragon does not currently have a program that allows instructors to provide feedback for individual submissions, but there is a list of prep providers on our website. You may find a suitable tutor or instructor there to work with to continue developing your skills, or you may locate an English tutor in your community. www.celpip.ca/prepare-for-celpip/prep-programs/ -Brandi

[@sabazia8316]

can we add any local name the country we belong to?

[@sabazia8316]

kindly reply

[@ttantoon]

Thank you for trying to help, Brandi. However, it seems unrealistic to come up with all those ideas in a few minutes and then use complicated words and sentence structures, revise the vocabulary in 26 minutes :(

[@pranjalibharambe3690]

@CELPIP Test are both writing task are having equal weightage how is score calucalated

[@CELPIPOfficial]

Hi Pranjali. Yes, both Writing tasks are weighted equally. You'll receive an individual score for each Writing task, and then these two scores will be averaged together to form your overall Writing score. Please note that the overall score is rounded up or down to the nearest level. Scores for Writing are based on the Performance Standards checklist. This checklist identifies the skills that the raters are looking for you to demonstrate when you write the email and the response survey on the CELPIP Test. Please follow the links provided below to review these skills in detail. We also discuss these Performance Standards in many of our KZbin videos and our free webinars, so we welcome you to join us there if you have any further questions. www.celpip.ca/take-celpip/test-results/ (Scroll down to the heading "Performance Standards" and open the Writing one). - Brandi
