Trinity College London

Trinity College London examinations

The English for Asia Learning Centre is currently the only Trinity Registered Examination Centre in Macao.

The examinations are suitable for learners wanting to gain accreditation for their English skills for educational and professional purposes.

GESE is one of the most popular and trusted series of English language examinations for testing speaking and listening skills. We have been offering GESE examinations since 2007.

The exam takes the form of a one-to-one conversation with a highly qualified Trinity examiner who comes from the UK. Preparing for and sitting a GESE exam builds confidence in English language communication.

Resources

GESE is suitable for all students, whatever their level, from absolute beginner to full mastery. There are 12 examination grades from beginner to advanced. At each stage candidates carry out a number of real-world speaking and listening tasks that demonstrate their fluency, accuracy and ability to communicate in spoken English.

Trinity examinations are held at the English for Asia Learning Centre annually in July*.
