I'm from Germany and my oral CAE exam is on Tuesday. I feel quite well prepared through your videos and all the sample papers online and I'm looking forward to it. Thank you so much for your videos! Keep going!
@@tothepointenglishwithben. Hi Ben, although I'm a bit late, I'm very happy to let you know that I passed my Cambridge C1 exam successfully. Thank you very much for your great videos, keep up your excellent work!
Hey! I did my cae in December and today I found out I passed with flying colors! I was extremely lazy and studied a total of 6 hours plus watching your videos. I’m studying an Asian language in my bachelors and with that language it’s the same: you study for the exam, not the language. After my 6 hours of studying I did a mock exam and I sucked. Watching your videos about how the exam is structured was so enlightening to me! I passed with 207, which basically equals C2 level (it says c2 on the certificate) with 210 in “use of English” and reading. And I’m above 200 in every category. So guys, remember to familiarize yourself with how this specific exam works and don’t rest on being able to speak English well because that’s not enough. Good luck everyone!!
Hi! First of all, congratulations for your CAE! I want to prepare my CAE exam but I don't know how to prepare myself for that. I mean, how did you organise your days? One day vocabulary, another day grammar and so? And in terms of study vocabulary, did you use any technique such as flashcards or a traditional "list" or how did you improve your skills? It's like there is a lot of material on the Internet but you don't know which of this material use. I hope I have explained it well. Thank you!
@@meels9 Hey, sorry for the late answer. So first of all, maybe I was just really lucky and I wouldn't recommend to stick to whatever I did. So I learned using a CAE Preperation book for two weeks, doing two chapters every day (taking me 1-2 hours). I did that and noticed there isn't much vocabulary that I didn't know before (apart from words like "quaint!" lmao But tbh I feel like book that made no difference at all. But these videos really helped me so I would advice you to watch at least one video onevery chapter that talks about how to solve the questions in detail. You should know what kind of questions you will be getting and have a rough Idea what order you want to do. This saves you time & prevents you from getting nervous in the heat of the moment! If you have time to prepare maybe you could get a book that is focussed on CAE becuase the vocabulary will probably be relevant. But the grammar part just got me hella confused becuase they name the tenses and grammatical things they want from you which we can all intuitively use but don't know what they are called. But you don't need to know that anyways, so don't sweat it. I think you'll be fine with grammar aand talking anyways as far as I can judge. What you CAN prepare a lot for (and so you should) is the speaking part. the questions for you are always going to be more predictable than the rest of what you have to do so prepare some fancy-sounding sentences for that. And for the writing part, familiarize yourself with the difference of writing formal/informal letters. It's always good to fresh up on that beause I personally forgot some of the rules (because no one sticks to them irl anyways) and do mock exams! :D Good luck
I wanted to thank you for the bottom of my heart. For the past few weeks I have been intensely preparing for the CAE test witch i took earlier today and if it wasn’t for your helpful advice I don’t think I would do as well as I did! Keep up the good work! 😊😊😊
Hi Ben, I'm an EFL teacher and my L1 is Spanish. I have the speaking test tomorrow Monday and the written exams on Tuesday... I just wanted to thank you for all your videos and tips since they have helped me a lot! I just wish I had more time to practice and study :( Greetings from Chile!
Hello Ben! I'm currently embarking on the preparation course for C1 and I'm so happy I've found your channel. Your content is very comprehensive and easy to understand, thank you so much for your hard work and all the knowledge you're sharing. Love from Argentina!
Hello, I'm an English teacher preparing students for Cambridge exams; just wanted to say a big thank you for all your great tips on the B2-C2 exams- they are very useful!
Thank you so much for all your work and energy spent on this video! I am from The Czech Republic and I just did my mock tests in CEA exam. My final exam is somewhere in june and I must say it; it was the best coincidence that happened to me today, finding your videos. Now I feel like I understand it much more than before. Thank you again so much, have a lovely weekend. Greetings from 🇨🇿!
Hello Ben, Héctor from Paraguay here. I want to let you know that I passed the C1 exam last May with an overall score of 198, which is almost a C2 level. I scored C2 in Use of English (209) and Listening (202), and I credit your videos as part of my success. Your videos played an instrumental role in helping me achieve this. I can say with certainty that the effort you put into creating your videos has had a significant impact on many of us, from those who are just starting to learn English to those who want to master the intricacies of the language. My English learning journey began in 2018, and while my main goals remain the same, learning English has also helped me understand how different cultures express their ideas and opinions. Learning a new language is not just about using different words and sounds; it goes much deeper than that. The more you delve into it, the more you start to perceive things from a different perspective, which in turn fosters tolerance - something we need more than ever before. I am taking a break now, not from English, but from preparing for English language exams. However, I hope to return soon to prepare for the C2 level and that you will continue your excellent work because I will surely need it in the future. Thank you.
Hi Ben! I'm just about to start my jorney with CAE exam. I never had time to meet my dream and pass the test. But I've got to tell you: you've inspired me! I'm starting now, and this time next year let's hope I'll have certificate already in my hands. All the best :)
Hello, Ben! I'm here to thank you for your wonderful tips regarding the CAE exam. I managed to pass it and I am really grateful from the bottom of my heart! Thank you so much ❤️🇧🇷
Thanks Ben! I had my CAE exam yesterday and I think it went really well! Your videos were a big part of my preparation so thank you for the great help!!
Thanks so much for this. I'm an English teacher and am not very familiar with the exam so I just wanted to get an overview. Your video was super helpful!
Thanks so much for your guide and outstanding tips throughout every part of the test paper. Very useful and informative. I'm going to take the CAE exam this year and your videos have provided many valuable knowledge which make me feel fully prepared by watching them 👍👍👍
Today I've agreed to take a pretest on CAE. That was quite an impulsive decision and that's why i'm getting really nervous about it now. The pretest is to be taken in a month from now and only a half an hour ago I started to understand what the CAE actually is (i'm taking the CAE this autumn though). I have pretty much things planned on the end of this spring, my anxiety rises in every minute and i don't know how am I going to arrange my time in terms of preparation for the pretest, and of course, for the exam itself. I have high hopes on finding your channel really useful (after watching 2 videos of yours i'm pretty sure my hopes'll be justified😉). Thanks a lot for your work!
Super exercise I enjoyed it immensely It puts all our competence with the English language and keeps you awake on our language learning It is not boring
Hey Ben! My exam is upcoming Tuesday and Wednesday. I have had 4 years of bilingual class in high school and that makes me feel very prepared. Wish me good luck! :)
@@fuowe hi! Overall it was pretty easy except for the reading test. It was a super strange text about mythological creatures and stuff like that. The rest was very doable:)
Hi everyone . Maybe it seems a stupid question but... Ben, speaking about tour experience, how many tests do you need to do to pass CAE? 50, 60, ... I know that exam 's a mix of lots of things, but if you a listening english, do writings speaking,.... Thanks
Hi Ben! First of all, I came here to say a big THANK YOU, your videos undoubtedly (wink wink) helped me get through the preparation phase. I got my results -199 points, 1 point only from getting an A grade. I am wondering if it's worth asking for a second review - do you know cases where it actually worked in favor of the candidate?
Ben you are great. I would like to suggest you have more videos on CPE exclusively. And I also have a question for you and that is how can I participate in your CPE interview mock exams if there is any :) thank you
Thanks, Ali! Yes, I intend to make more videos on the CPE soon 👍 Regarding the exam practice classes, send me an email or a Telegram message (both links are in the description)

Hello Ben! I studied Italian many years at Dante Alighieri School. Once in my English classes I asked the teacher something I discovered that it could be equal to the Italian language that modifies the pronunciation of the previous vowel when it is followed by two consonants. Recommendation, Apple, Accomodation, among hundreds of other words, for example. She told me that she was going to find out that she was going to find it. At that moment she told me that she did not know. After a week the answer was yes. I would like to know what your opinion is about it. Is it really like that? Thank you very much.
10 years ago, I took the CAE and I passed it but I don't know whether to prepare for the CAE again or should I aim for the CPE. I have to admit that my level of English is not as good as it was in the past. What is your opinion about?? Thanks for reading it...

Hey! I'm taking my CAE exam next month just a year after my FCE exam. I am VERY nervous. On practise tests i usually score somewhere around 190ish points which I feel is not good eough. If you have advice to share feel free to because im scared
Hi, I just found your youtube channel and it's so helpful for me right now. I'm a little bit overwhelmed because I NEED to pass that exam. In fact, that exam is my future and I've watched a lot of videos and documents, and seems to me deceptively. specifically, the part where you have to fill the gap with the words or phrases that you think are correct. I feel lost... and I don't know what to do... do you know any page or document that might help me to study to have the C1 level?
A question: throughout the video you said twice 1,5hourS, isn’t it more appropriate to say 1,5 hour (in singular) cuz it’s less than two hours? Congrats for the video, gonna start prepare myself to take the test
@@tothepointenglishwithben. when I take placement test on general English proficiency by Cambridge exam, I always got the result of upper intermediate level and I was wondering which exam I should try for the purpose of being a English teacher. TKT is the one to go but I'd like hear your opinion as well sir. Thanks.
I'm interested in taking your C1 preparation course, but the free preview is not enough for me to understand how your course is. If you can answer my questions, it would be great. I am thinking of taking C1 the next January. Could I complete your course within 2 months-ish time? Do you require me to buy some materials along with your course? Can you correct my English writing? Above all, is it "enough" to pass C1 with your course? Thanks.
Hi! - Yes, 2 months is enough time to complete the course. - The course does not require you to buy any extra materials. However, you will benefit from doing extra exercises and I share links to free internet resources in the course as well as book recommendations. - The course does not include writing corrections but you can send your compositions to me separately. You can contact from within the course for details of that or if you have questions during the course. - I think it's enough to pass but, of course, it really depends on you at the end of the day! 🙂
@@tothepointenglishwithben. Thank you for getting back to me so quickly, Ben. I have recently taken a Japanese English exam equivalent to C1 level. My goal is to obtain C2, so I want to take C1 this January, and then C2 early next year, hopefully. I am not suspecting your course, but is there a refund policy?
Why do you want to take the C1 Advanced? Why don't you go straight to the C2 Proficiency? If you already have a certification equivalent to C1, it's unnecessary to take the Cambridge C1. I don't have a specific refund policy, but if you find that the course is not what you expected, you can contact me and I'll refund your payment.
@@tothepointenglishwithben. the Japanese English exam, called "Eiken", is the most popular English exam for Japanese people. Even Grade 1, the most difficult one, was easy for me, although it is equivalent to C1 "officially". I just want to take C1 in preparation for C2. Also, writing for C1 is much more difficult than Eiken, the Japanese exam. So it would be beneficial for me to take C1 before I challenge C2. Thank you for the refund. I will sign up for your course today.
@@tothepointenglishwithben. By the way, this is a past exam of Eiken Grade 1. I want to know how difficult it is comparing to C1 exam. www.eiken.or.jp/eiken/exam/grade_1/pdf/202202/2022-2-1ji-1kyu.pdf
Yes, for some reason part 1 is considered Reading in the results. But, for studying purposes it makes more sense to see it as Use of English. In my opinion

Also, writing for C1 is much more difficult than Eiken, the Japanese exam. So it would be beneficial for me to take C1 before I challenge C2. Thank you for the refund. I will sign up for your course today.
@@tothepointenglishwithben. By the way, this is a past exam of Eiken Grade 1. I want to know how difficult it is comparing to C1 exam. www.eiken.or.jp/eiken/exam/grade_1/pdf/202202/2022-2-1ji-1kyu.pdf
Hello. Could you please share with me audio files of Cambridge C1 Advanced 4? Or share any link where can I download it. Thank in advance!
Today’s my exam day 😢
Is it always the same kind of exercise? I'm worried I'm going to find some kind of exercise I've never seen
It's always te same... until they change the exam format. I don't know if/when they plan to do that
Sorry, how much time ?
In summary: the test itself is not only about English itself but also a cognitive 😅
Cambridge has an example of the exam. But you can't have the answers... Could you do it and upload it on youtube? It would be a guide for us...
You can find the answers in the teacher's handbook which you can also download from the official website.
But, maybe I'll make that video anyway.

Part 1 is actually reading not use of english!!!
Yes, for some reason part 1 is considered Reading in the results. But, for studying purposes it makes more sense to see it as Use of English. In my opinion
Thats right!!!
