Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I pay for this when I can get a CEFR certificate for free?

Free CEFR tests provide a general, automated score without assessing real-time communication. Our test is conducted by a human proctor, who evaluates fluency, word linking, sound reductions, and your ability to adjust pacing and tonality to express emotions naturally—things automated tests simply can’t measure. Additionally, we assess how persuasive, credible, confident, and empathetic you sound in English—key soft skills for professional success. Plus, you receive a detailed skill breakdown, not just a CEFR level, so you know exactly where to improve.

I need a quick certificate. Why should I wait for yours?

Our same-day skill-by-skill report and certificate offer fast results while maintaining accuracy. Unlike automated tests, a certified proctor will interact with you in real time, assessing how you handle impromptu follow-up questions, adjust your tone in professional scenarios, navigate real conversations, and present yourself as a confident and persuasive communicator—essential skills for leadership and career advancement.

Can’t I just use a TOEFL or IELTS test instead?

TOEFL and IELTS are great but stressful, time-consuming, and high-pressure. Plus, they don’t provide personalized feedback beyond a numerical score. Our assessment is designed to be more natural and practical, mimicking real-life professional scenarios rather than rigid test formats. You can even submit specific workplace situations in advance, so we can tailor the test to your needs.

Unlike traditional standardized tests, our approach integrates test-taking strategies that help reduce anxiety, such as interactive, one-on-one proctoring instead of impersonal multiple-choice exams. By guiding you through the process in a supportive, conversational format, we help you showcase your true abilities without the stress of a high-stakes testing environment.

You’ll receive a detailed skill breakdown, not just a final number, so you know exactly where to improve and how to communicate more effectively in professional settings.

Do companies even recognize your certificate?

Yes! Our certificate is proctored by a trained assessor, making it far more credible than a self-administered online test. This is a verified assessment of your real-world communication skills, not just multiple-choice answers, which includes how well you convey confidence, credibility, and empathy in professional interactions. Employers value effective communication, not just grammar knowledge, which is exactly what we assess.

What if I don’t pass? Do I get a refund?

This is not a pass/fail test—it’s a diagnostic assessment designed to pinpoint areas of improvement and show where you stand on the proficiency scale. If you’d like to retake the test to measure progress, we offer reassessments at a discounted rate.

How much does it cost?

Our pricing varies depending on the season. Currently (before the busy season starts), we are running a promotion: 42% off and a free upgrade to a premium paper copy certificate.

Will this test really assess my level accurately?

Absolutely. Automated tests only check static knowledge—grammar rules, vocabulary recognition, and multiple-choice comprehension. Our live proctoring process evaluates how well you can think on your feet, link ideas smoothly, and express emotions naturally in a conversation. You’ll also receive a detailed diagnostic report outlining your strengths and areas for improvement.

Can I take the test whenever I want?

We limit the number of assessments per month to maintain quality and personalized feedback. Since each test and feedback are conducted live by a human proctor, we recommend booking in advance to secure your spot.

How does this test help me in my career?

This assessment doesn’t just evaluate grammar and vocabulary—it measures your ability to communicate like a leader. We assess persuasiveness, confidence, credibility, and emotional intelligence in English, all of which are essential for career growth, promotions, and business success.
