I have my exam this Saturday (B2) and I've been very nervous about the reading part. I can talk freely with anyone but when it comes to any exam on paper and in a short period of time, stress builds up easily. These tips were really useful and getting to know the exam better can help release the stress I've been building up, and if you're stressed like me I recommend doing some yoga or meditation, or even box breathing, and as well try talking about it with someone like you're trying to release the stress inside. Thanks a lot for the tips and good luck everybody with your exams!

Thanks Katty! From what I've seen, the KZbin example tests are fine. Of course, I haven't seen them all so I hesitate to recommend them. I should point out that it's important to check that they are relatively recent because the format of the exams changed in 2015.

Hello. My name is Alejandra. I've been a FCE teacher for many years and one of the tips for younger teachers would be the importance of sharing mistakes with the group. Whenever students choose or do something wrong I make them share the mistake and even make a picture quickly to show the others the problem. We post it on the wall and we have it there to see it for some time.

I'm taking the exam this May (on the 8th) and I've only started preparing last week... I'm pretty terrified, even though I already have a CAE and passed with an overall score of 196. I've been dedicating a lot of time to it and besides studying, I plan on taking 4 mock tests before the real one. I do hope it will work out! Thanks for the video, the tips are quite helpful. I'm looking foward to watching you video about the "use of english" paper, since it's the skill I have been struggling the most at the moment.

The biggest mistake students make is thinking that having an advanced level means they can pass the exam without much preparation. I believe the best thing you can do in class is practise the different parts of the exam over and over so the students are completely familiarised with the format and demands of the exam. Encourage them to read in English in their free time and, of course, watch all films and series in English. And... revise all the grammar. I have another video on the grammar needed for the Use of English paper.

I usually recommend reading the text relatively quickly first but it depends... each student should find the method which is best for them. If you're not good at fast reading then maybe it's better to read the questions first. Do as many practise test as possible to find the best option for you

I'm about to have CAE in 1,5 weeks. Actually I don't have the required level in vocabulary so I'm planning on gaining points by my grammar mostly. Obviously I don't abandon vocabulary aspect (especially phrasal verbs, which i hate) and trying to practice English as mush as possible although it is soooo difficult during 12th grade

Hello, am preparing for CAE exam. If I ll not feel quite confident before the exam, would you recommend me to rather switch and choose B2 FCE test or since I was preparing (materials, tests etc.) for CAE from the beginning its better to stay with it and try to pass it? Thank you for answer.

That's a very difficult question to answer. It depends on how much time you have to prepare, what kind of marks you're getting in the practise tests, whether you need the certification for anything in particular etc... But, if you want a quick answer... go for the CAE. It will be more motivating and rewarding.

I recommend you do sample papers in order to get to know the format of the exam. You can find free samples papers on the Cambridge exam website.

Do you think is better reading books or articles to learn vocabulary?
@tothepointenglishwithben.
@tothepointenglishwithben. 2 жыл бұрын
I would say articles, for two reasons. Firstly, you can read more articles than books and therefore get a wider range of lexical input. Secondly, the texts in the exams are usually non-fiction so articles are more suitable. However, it's important to read a range of topics. Not only subjects you enjoy and find interesting.
