SIMCE PARA INGLÉS
¿Debo estudiar o prepararme para rendirlo?
El test Toeic Bridge no se aprueba o desaprueba, solamente es un reflejo de tus conocimientos de inglés. Los resultados del examen no afectarán de ninguna manera tus notas, los beneficios son por rendirlo, no por los resultados que obtengas.


¿Qué es el examen TOEIC Bridge?

El test TOEIC® Bridge mide la aptitud para la comprensión oral y escrita de inglés desde el nivel básico al intermedio

El test TOEIC® Bridge es un método de evaluación muy similar al TOEIC® (Test of English for Internacional Communications) excepto que se utiliza en niveles básico a intermedio. Es una prueba válida, fiable y reconocida internacionalmente.

¿Quién utiliza el test TOEIC Bridge y para qué? 

  • Profesionales que necesitan un nivel elemental de inglés en su trabajo. 
  • Compañías que desarrollan programas de formación y desean tanto evaluar como animar a los alumnos con niveles de inglés bajos. 
  • Estudiantes de idiomas en el nivel debutante. 
  • Escuelas de educación secundaria y escuelas técnicas que necesitan un método externo e imparcial para evaluar el idioma. 
  • Como prueba de evaluación del nivel de los estudiantes en diferentes etapas del curso. 
  • Como criterio de calidad de la enseñanza. De los resultados obtenidos por determinados grupos de alumnos pueden extraerse conclusiones sobre la calidad del curso realizado

El test Bridge motiva a los principiantes a profundizar en el estudio del idioma.

La versión convencional (en formato papel) del test consiste en 100 preguntas de tipo test. Dura aproximadamente una hora y es bastante más sencillo que el TOEIC®.

Una vez que los alumnos alcanzan la máxima puntuación del test Bridge, están preparados para presentarse al test TOEIC®.
