A Cambridge English qualification proves you have the language skills to live and work independently in an English-speaking country or study on courses taught in English. The cost of the exam is approximately £160, depending on the examination centre you choose.
There may be an extra fee of around £15 if you don’t book your exam by the deadline. There are many examination centres around London where you can take the exam, you can find more details about dates and prices here:
On average a unit from the course book is covered in a week. Your teacher will send you a provisional timetable for the week via email before your Tuesday lesson, so you have an idea of what parts of the unit will be covered and when.
Homework is set every evening, including some writing. Evening courses also use course books, but cover a unit in about 2 weeks.

Thank you very much for my teachers and admission team. I get my IELTS score which I need in a short period. Also, I have a chance to introduce with new friends.
A friend of mine recommended Speak Up and now I can say she was right! The most valuable teachers will prepare you for a real English environment, whether you want to improve your general English or prepare for a Cambridge exam. In my personal case, I was prepared by the teachers for the First Certificate Exam which I succeeded to pass. In just two months they showed me all I needed for grammar, writing, reading, speaking and listening.
After having attended lectures for the past two months I found the overall experience being wonderful. Every teachers is friendly and thoughtful when they teach and most important very clear when they speak. They also offer you a lot of extra activities with other students in the school that gives you the opportunity to meet a lot of new people. Thanks for everything. I'd definitely recommend the school .
It was an unforgettable experience !!! I attended a 3w course last summer and I had a really great time 😉 The staff and all the teachers are super friendly and professional ! The school is perfectly located in the earth of the city so that you can go for a walk or shopping in your free time ! I had the opportunity to meet new friends from all around the world and it was simply awesome 🙂
My class teacher Billie was very professional and she has got high class teaching technique. She knows how to interact with her students in the best way. When you have a problem, The principal Mirenda always ready to help you. Needless to say, Musa is very kind, helpful and professional.

This is the schoold I attended when I was in London for 6 month and I can say for sure that is the best! It has very qualified teachers and it is in Oxford street, so it's super easy to reach it! Every week the school organises events or trips where you can go and it gets discount on fees very often.
