Hi @mutambajane1060! Nice to meet you and thanks for watching!

Hi Mulu. Thank you for watching. Your vocabulary does matter when doing a test like the CLB placement test, but it is only one aspect. There are many other factors that they consider like pronunciation, fluency, spelling, etc. Definitely, don’t worry about it but try to build your vocabulary over time.

Hi. You should get in touch with Learn English Nova Scotia (LENS). They can arrange for testing across the province. www.learnenglishns.org

Hi. Yes, generally you need to take the CLB test before you can take government-funded English classes. There may be some other options like classes with a private language school or conversation groups where you wouldn’t need to take the CLB test first.

Hi Ega. Thanks for watching. No, you would not need to do a CLB test if you are coming to study. Usually colleges would require you to take a test such as the IELTS (Academic) or TOEFL. Each college has different requirements and fees. I think most places will require at least a band 6 for each part of IELTS, and at least 80 on the TOEFL internet-based test. I found this link to a site that provides an overview of some of your options for colleges in Vancouver: www.2-study.com/list-of-colleges-universities-in-vancouver-for-international-student-2021/. It's a great city, but it's very, very expensive. Good luck!

@@RightStartNewcomerServices ok i got it sir, thanks a lot for attention and information .

Welcome to Canada, Hanane! Good luck on your test!

Hi there. The CLB assessment is not the same as the CELPIP, although both of them are based on the Canadian Language Benchmarks. The CLB is only done once you have arrived in Canada for the purpose of accessing government funded language and settlement programs. The CELPIP on the other hand can be done before arrival to Canada and may be able to be used to prove language ability for certain immigration programs. Check their website at www.celpip.ca to see if they offer this test in Nigeria. Alternatively, you may be able to take the IELTS general exam to prove language ability for immigration purposes. Hope this helps and good luck with your applications.

I use StreamYard for livestreams. They have a green screen feature.

Hi Grace! Thanks for tuning in!

Hi Joel. Nice to meet you. For sure, you can send along your responses and I’ll be happy to check those for you and give you a score. Please email your responses to ian@rightstartcanada.ca.

Hi there! Yes, lots more classes in 2024. We go live on Tuesday evenings at 6:30 pm (Atlantic Time) this year. Hope to see you there!

Hi @robertgitau. You'll have to do the test after arriving in Canada. Check out this page for information on testing centres that you can contact in your province: www.language.ca/resourcesexpertise/for-language-learners/#1473771803983-0f2b7a24-0d0f

Hi Sonia. No, sorry, we’re not offering English classes at this point.

@@RightStartNewcomerServicesThanks, but when you will start ?

@@soniamahey7203 I'm not sure. Maybe never. Are you looking for in person classes in Halifax?

@@RightStartNewcomerServices Yes

Hi Bhupinder. Depending on where you live in Canada, there are different CLB testing centres. They are the ones who administer the test. The CLB-OSA is a self assessment tool and is only used for practice. The best way to find a CLB assessment centre would probably be to contact a local immigrant serving organization or do a Google search for the city you live in.

Good afternoon. No, unfortunately it cannot. You would need to take either the CELPIP or IELTS General test to prove your language ability.

@@RightStartNewcomerServices yesterday I was at the immigration lawyer, she repeated to me 2 times that it works. But there is no information on the internet.

@@ukraina.ponadyse Maybe they know something I don’t. Maybe it depends on your immigration stream. I was able to find this online about the requirements for the skilled worker stream: www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/documents/language-requirements/language-testing.html. Feel free to contact the Learn English Nova Scotia CLB Testing Centre. They would be happy to answer your questions about the test and what it can be used for. www.learnenglishns.org

Hi Sigrid. We’ll, there’s the community college, NSCC which is all across Nova Scotia, including Halifax. Or there are universities including Dalhousie, Saint Mary’s, Mount Saint Vincent and NSCAD. It really depends on what you want to study. Please email me at ian@rightstartcanada.ca if you have more questions or if you want to set up a chat about it.

That's great! Maybe we'll run into each other some day.

Hi Shahida. Here is a list of testing centres across Canada where you can do the CLB assessment: www.language.ca/resourcesexpertise/for-language-learners/#1473771803983-0f2b7a24-0d0f. It looks like Achev and the YMCA offer it in your area. If you are still interested in classes in January, please contact us. We’re planning to offer online classes starting then. More information will be on our website soon: www.rightstartcanada.ca.

Thank you so very much, sir! Sure

@@user-om9tn4np7lYou’re welcome! Good luck on your test!

Hi there! The CLB Placement Test isn't a pass/fail test, but in order to go to college in Canada, you may require a certain level such as CLB 8 in all of your language skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing). To help you prepare, there is a practice reading and listening CLB test at www.clb-osa.ca/home. You can also visit www.celpip.ca/ and find resources to prepare for the CELPIP, which is similar. Good luck!

The test is not really easy or difficult. Some parts are easy but it gets harder as you go through it. It is supposed to measure your English level up to a certain level. If you have high English abilities (above CLB 8) you may find the test to be easy. Good luck!

Hi! Thanks for tuning in!
