According to our eight-year TESOL training experience, we have basically summarized the general situation. If you want to learn TESOL children, the goal is early education or primary school, then you can apply for CET-4 or above, and the pass rate is also very high.
If you want to take TESOL advanced certificate, then IELTS is probably above 5.5. This level of reading is still a little difficult to understand, but I can barely learn it. You just need to pay more attention.
If you are confident in English, with IELTS score above 7 and CET-8, it is not particularly difficult to get an expert certificate. The only thing that is a bit difficult is that you have to make up your business knowledge in the business course.
If you haven't participated in any English assessment, let's talk about English vocabulary now. After reading the following content, you will also have a general judgment on your English level.
1986, the British Guardian estimated that the English vocabulary was about 300 at the age of two, 5,000 at the age of five, 12, and the vocabulary was about 12000.
12000 is basically equivalent to the vocabulary of daily articles in popular newspapers, but the vocabulary of British and American university graduates is about twice as large, about 23,000.
In addition, the research results show that 2000 most commonly used words cover 79.7% of English text content, 3000 most commonly used words and variants cover 84%, 4000 most commonly used words and variants cover 86.7%, and when the vocabulary increases to 5000, the coverage is 88.6%.
To sum up, the first goal of English learners is 2000 commonly used words, so that they can understand nearly 80% of English content. The ultimate goal is 20,000 words, which is equivalent to the vocabulary of a well-educated British.
How many words do you need for CET-4 and CET-6?
For CET-4 and CET-6, the vocabulary required by the syllabus is 4500 and 6000 respectively.
How much vocabulary does IELTS score 7 require?
The vocabulary of IELTS 6 is equivalent to that of CET-4 and CET-6, but how much vocabulary does IELTS 7 need? Although the official data of IELTS vocabulary is 7000, if you want to get a score of 7, the requirements for vocabulary are quite high. It is estimated that the vocabulary of IELTS score 7 is around 8000, and the vocabulary that can be skillfully used is around 5000.
How many words do you need for TOEFL score 1 10?
For TOEFL candidates who are not very demanding, it is basically enough to master 3000-4000 TOEFL vocabulary (not basic vocabulary). For those with higher requirements, the TOEFL vocabulary should be around 7000-8000, which is basically the vocabulary of CET-6 or above. Generally speaking, if you master 8,000 TOEFL words, there is basically no big problem in the exam, but many candidates are relatively weak in speaking and writing, so try to master 10000 words, so the passing rate will be improved.
For those students who have finished CET-4 and CET-6, I suggest you strike while the iron is hot before applying for IELTS and TOEFL, which is very necessary for further study and employment. Especially in the workplace, most enterprises' recognition of IELTS and TOEFL greatly exceeds CET-4 and CET-6. So the sooner you apply for IELTS and TOEFL, the better.
