NEW EXAMS FEES

Improve your English skills with the Top Tips for FCE.

What is Top Tips for FCE?
Written by Cambridge ESOL examiners with many years’ experience of setting and marking FCE exams, Top Tips for FCE provides candidates with essential advice for each of the five FCE papers and comes in a convenient A5 64-page format which is easy to use. Learners can work through the book and then practise what they have learned by trying the real exam paper on the accompanying CD-ROM (including the recordings for the Listening paper and the answers). The CD-ROM also includes a video of real students taking the test.

In order to obtain the Top Tips for FCE schools/institutions should register their students through a group entry for FCE.
More info is available on: http://www.britishcouncil.org/poland-registration-procedures.htm
