Independent CELPIP preparation

Walk into CELPIPready.

Practice for Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking follows the published test format: the same parts, timers and word limits, in the same order. After every attempt, a review shows you what to fix next.

No credit card required

TestCELPIP does not reproduce the official interface, question bank, scoring, or test results.

The sitting

One sitting. Four modules. Always in this order.

CELPIP runs Listening, Reading, Writing, then Speaking. Scroll through the sitting and try a piece of each module on the way.

Subject: Team meeting moved

Hi Priya,

The conference room is booked for training on Thursday, so I’d like to move our team meeting to Friday at 10:30. If that doesn’t suit you, let me know by Wednesday afternoon and I’ll find another time.

Why is Marcus writing to Priya?

A simplified view of one Reading question. In practice you answer the whole part, then see each answer marked against the passage.

Writing Task 1 · EmailIllustrative excerpt · 67 words

Dear Ms. Chen, I am writing about the elevator in our building, which has been out of service since Monday. (note 1) Several residents on the upper floors now struggle (note 2) to carry groceries up six flights of stairs. As a result, (note 3) some older neighbours have stopped going out at all. (note 5) Could you please tell us when the repair is scheduled, and share updates by email until it is fixed? (note 4)

1.Opens with the purpose, so the reader knows why you are writing from the first line.

Hover or select a highlighted phrase, or a category, to see what it shows. An illustration, not a real learner or result. After you submit, your own draft comes back marked like this, with a result in each of the four categories and one next revision.
  1. Working well

    Opens with the purpose, so the reader knows why you are writing from the first line.

  2. Working well

    A precise verb says more than a general phrase like “have problems.”

  3. Working well

    A linking phrase ties the effect back to its cause.

  4. Working well

    One clear, polite request, held in a controlled sentence.

Content & coherence

Add one specific detail so the reader sees why the repair is urgent.

Before
“…some older neighbours have stopped going out at all.”
After
“…some older neighbours, including one who needs a walker, have stopped going out at all.”

What comes back. Four rubric categories, plus one focused next revision step.

TestCELPIP practice feedback uses four categories informed by current CELPIP Writing criteria: Content & coherence, Vocabulary, Readability, and Task fulfillment. Results use the TestCELPIP 2–12 practice scale. They are not CELPIP levels, CLB levels, official scores, score predictions, or guarantees.

Speaking Task 1 · Giving AdviceIllustrative transcript · 100 words · 01:30 to speak

Okay, so, um (note 1), if I were you I would not buy the first car you see. (note 2) First, decide how much you can spend, including insurance, not just the price of the car. (note 3) Then take someone who knows cars with you, like a mechanic or a friend, because they will notice problems you would miss. Also, ask for the service history and check that the mileage matches the paperwork. Finally, take it for a test drive on a highway, not only around the block. (note 4) If the seller does not let you do that, walk away. That is what I would do.

1.A filler phrase. A short, silent pause sounds more controlled.

Hover or select a highlighted phrase, or a category, to see what it shows. An illustration, not a real learner or result. After you record, your own answer comes back transcribed and marked like this, with filler words counted and one next step to practise.
  1. To revise

    A filler phrase. A short, silent pause sounds more controlled.

  2. Working well

    The advice comes in the first sentence, addressed to the friend, so the task is answered before the details begin.

  3. Working well

    Signposts like first, then and finally let the listener follow four pieces of advice in order.

Listenability

Say why, in the same breath. A reason after each piece of advice keeps the listener with you.

Before
“…take it for a test drive on a highway, not only around the block.”
After
“…take it for a test drive on a highway, not only around the block, so you can hear any noise at speed.”

What comes back. Your recording and its transcript, marked in four categories, with filler words counted and one next step.

Questions

Answers before you start.

Straight answers on access, feedback, and billing.

Do I need an account to start?
No. You can browse the question bank and open tasks without one. When you start an attempt, you sign in with an email link so your answers can be saved.
What does the free plan include?
Two full mock exams, the first two practice sets of every part across all four skills, and 5 AI Writing evaluations. The 5 evaluations are a one-time allowance for your account, not a monthly one.
How do Pro evaluation credits work?
Pro includes up to 100 AI Writing evaluations in any rolling 30-day period. As earlier evaluations pass the 30-day mark, that allowance frees up again. Weekly, monthly, and three-month billing all use the same window.
What feedback do I get, and is it an official score?
Listening and Reading are marked when you submit, Writing gets feedback in four categories, and Speaking is recorded for your own review. Feedback uses a TestCELPIP 2–12 practice scale. It is not a CELPIP level, an official score, or a prediction. Read how AI feedback works.
How do renewal and cancellation work?
Memberships renew automatically until you cancel. Cancel from the billing portal linked in your profile: it stops the next renewal and keeps your access until the end of the period you have paid for. A full refund is available within 14 days if the membership is unused. Read the terms.
