CLIL Module: Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some FAQ on CLIL Module with answers.

Would it be better to take TKT CLIL Module separately from core Modules?

You can take any number of modules in a single sitting, whether it’s one, two, or all core modules and/or specialist modules (provided that all the tests are available on the same day). However, please note that attempting several modules at once requires a significant amount of exam preparation. During the exam, it consumes a lot of energy and demands a higher level of concentration. For a beginner, it is recommended to take CLIL separately as it includes lot of content.

How much does it cost to do CLIL Module?

If you have chosen the self-study option, it will cost you only the exam fees. The exam fee varies from country to country, and there could be slight variations in the fee from center to center within the same country. However, at the end of the day, the self-study option will save you a considerable amount of money.
