Guided Learning Hours

Hours needed to prepare for the LanguageCert International ESOL exam

You will find below a list of estimated Guided Learning Hours (GLHs) per CEFR level. The term ‘Guided Learning Hours’ is defined as the hours of guided learning under the immediate guidance or supervision of a lecturer, supervisor, tutor or other appropriate provider of education or training.

With regard to Guided Learning Hours, LanguageCert is consistent with CEFR references which assign approximate values to levels of ESOL qualifications. As highlighted by ALTE, as a learner advances up the levels, the number of hours to attain each level increases, this being evidence of the continual nature of language learning.
