FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which exam should I take?
It depends on who’s asking: universities, employers and visa authorities always list which exams they accept and the score required. Our Exam Finder gives you a first answer; we double-check it together in the free consultation.
How long does it take to gain half a band?
There’s no fixed rule. Many students gain half a band in 6–10 weeks of steady work, especially in Writing and Speaking. After the diagnostic we give you a realistic estimate.
Are lessons in person or online?
Both. The studio is in Rome (Prati), and every course also runs live online, with the same programme and mocks.
Is the exam fee included?
No — the exam fee is paid directly to the exam board or test centre. We help you choose the right date and venue.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes, Standard and One-to-one courses can be paid in two instalments. We always issue an invoice.
What happens in the free consultation?
Thirty minutes with a tutor: a short speaking check, a look at your goal and deadline, and a course suggestion. No commitment.
