2. Passing the English speaking
and listening test, is part of
showing that you are ready to
become a citizen or a
permanent resident of the
UK.To apply for British
Citizenship or Indefinite Leave
to Remain you need to take a
test at B1 level at a secure
language centre. Now
remember, you only need to
take the test that tests your
speaking and listening ability.
You will not be tested on your
writing at all.
3. SPEAKING TEST TIPS
In order to show that you are
competent in English
language, you need to be
able to articulate yourself
fluently and without too much
hesitation.
Try to avoid words such as
‘Erm’, ‘Umm’, ‘Hmm’.
If you need to pause, take a
deep breathe, and recollect
your thoughts.
Do not try to fill any awkward
silences with irrelevance.
This will lose you marks and
the assessor will not be
impressed.
4. LISTENING TEST TIPS
In your English and Listening
test, you will be assessed on
how well you are able to
listen.
You are not only being
assessed on how well you
can communicate in English,
but how much you can
understand other people.
Make sure you pay attention
to what is being said.
Do not answer a different
question.
If you missed the question,
ask them to repeat it.
Don’t just give ONE word
answers. This will make you
look incompetent.
