The English study track includes full preparation for the following Cambridge English examinations:

• B1 Preliminary. This certificate proves that you can survive independently in English in familiar environments. Required for work where you need English occasionally.
• B2 First. This certificate proves that you can work in English in almost all workplaces. This is the most required certification level of English for any future career that needs English.
• C1 Advanced. This certificate proves you can work and study in English in familiar and unfamiliar environments and express yourself clearly and accurately. This is the most common certificate for attending university or working in education.

(Please note: Cumorah Academy prepares students for these exams but does not pay for or provide the official Cambridge certificate. If students wish to have the official Cambridge certificate, we recommend they take the test with Cambridge P.A.R.K. in the Czech Republic. If taking the test in the Czech Republic is not possible, we recommend students inquire at their local examination centers after completing the course.) 

Outcomes:

Students will be fully prepared to take an official Cambridge English exam appropriate to their level after they leave Cumorah Academy. Students will show clear and measurable progress in their English abilities in receptive and productive language skills improving by 10 points on the Cambridge Scale or 0.5 of a CEFR level* 

(*Students will have 80-100 hours of English study time. The normal requirement is 200 hours of study to advance by 1 full CEFR level).
