What is your English language level?

To verify their level in English, students can take Cambridge exams (Cambridge First, Cambridge Advanced, IELTS or TOEFL). You can read about your English level here

What are your learning objectives? 

 

 

An important part of the curriculum are also literature and content oriented classes, where students gain specific knowledge in English, which they can utilize also in other subjects. In the fourth year, our students can choose to write their Final Paper in English on their chosen topic. To write their Final Paper, students do academic research and write in the MLA style. They can also opt for taking a Cambridge Exam in exchange for the School Maturita.
