There are numerous tests a Japanese person can take to see how proficient they are in English writing, reading, listening, and speaking. TOIEC, EIKEN, and IELTS are a few of the popular tests and can be requirements for school, university, and job applications. Their grading systems are different and target skills differently too. In all of the tests, grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension are graded. Looking at previous tests will give you a good idea what to study to pass.
How good are you?
What happens if your goal of learning English is not to pass a test? What happens if you don’t want to take an exam to be graded? How do YOU assess how good (or bad) your English is? Simply chat with someone in English. Do you understand them? Do they understand you? Do you feel confident in what you have said or heard?
Masami and I have successfully helped people with their studies to pass the tests mentioned above; to us, comprehension is the most important. When talking to anyone, understanding the meaning is necessary; what’s the point of speaking otherwise? That’s the essence of communication and that’s what we help people with.
More than words
Communication is much more than listening and speaking, and putting the correct words in the right order. There are other skills which aren’t difficult to learn but putting them into practice takes practice. Thinking, expressing yourself, active listening, starting and continuing a conversation, and controlling the dialogue so you understand and are understood; many little skills lead to better communication. Success!
Personal best
That’s how Masami and I help; we assess our students’ level, acknowledge their strengths and weaknesses, and guide them to improve their communication. A simplification of how I assess someone’s English level; Was I understood and did I understand? And you? How do you assess your English level?
