TEST YOUR LANGUAGE LEVEL
Take the 40-question placement test to receive your results and class options.
If you are considering studying English with online classes, it is important to study materials that are your skill level. If the material is too advanced, the students find the challenge frustrating and many students lose interest and stop studying. If it is too easy, the students get bored and lose interest.
Taking a placement test will start the conversation about your English language proficiency. This test may be followed by a full ESL assessment to determine the best curriculum for your skill level.
If you would prefer a live ESL assessment, let us know.
