TEEP (Test of English for Educational Purposes)
TEEP used as a final examination within Pre-Sessional English courses can also be taken as a stand-alone test. Grades are expressed using the bands 0-9 (in the same way IELTS grades are expressed) and can be used as an official qualification to meet the English Language Requirements for the University of Reading's Foundation, Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes.
What can our English Language Pathways do for you?
The University of Reading has a long history of welcoming students whose first language is not English, and supporting them with the skills they need in order to be successful at university. Programmes developed over decades by the UK centre of excellence ISLI (International Study and Language Institute) are now available in Malaysia.
Pre-Sessional English courses feed directly into undergraduate and postgraduate courses at the University of Reading, without the need to take an IELTS test.
Assessment and progression
As part of the course, the Test of English for Educational Purposes (TEEP) will be given, a topic-based test which specifically assesses the students' ability to cope with the demands of an English-medium academic course. There are also a number of continuous assessment tasks which will count towards their final overall assessment.
English Language and Study Skills Support
We recognise that all students, no matter how good their English, appreciate support in helping them understand university conventions, principles and approaches.
