What you will achieve
Every level builds practical, measurable skills in four core areas, so you always know exactly what you’ll be able to do by the end of your course.
From catching familiar words to following films, lectures and fast native speech.
From simple introductions to fluent, spontaneous discussion on complex topics.
From short signs and messages to long articles, reports and literary texts.
From filling in basic forms to writing clear, well-structured essays and reports.

Minimum progress test score to sign up for the next course level
Moving up a level
Regular progress tests at the end of each course help the teachers monitor your mastery of each language level of the course.
At the end of your course, you may continue your studies and sign up for the next course level provided you score at least 60% in your progress test.
If you are dissatisfied in any way with your Progress Test results, you may lodge an appeal.
Recognising your progress
Upon completion of any course at inlingua Singapore, you may request for a Certificate of Attendance indicating the number of course hours and percentage scores in any tests that you may have taken during the course.
Note: Student Pass Holders are required to attend 90% of their course while all other students are required to attend 80% of their course in order to be eligible for a Certificate of Attendance.
If you have completed an entire course level (Beginner, Elementary, Pre-intermediate, etc.), you may request for a Certificate of Achievement that states the number of course hours you have attended and your percentage score in the test at the end of the course level.
Note: Students must score an average of 75% in their test scores throughout the course level in order to be eligible for a Certificate of Achievement at the end of the course level.
How we evaluate
Your performance is closely monitored throughout your course and we use different criteria to evaluate the progress you make. We employ continuous oral assessment to evaluate your speaking skills and an end-of-course test to evaluate your listening, reading and writing skills.
In addition, we also take into consideration and evaluate attendance, punctuality, participation and progress to offer a more comprehensive assessment.
If you have studied a language before but are not sure about your current level, you can take a free placement test so that we can recommend the best course to match your abilities.
