Alex Case lists available ICFE exam resources and I would like to say that I found the Cambridge resources invaluable. Some comments that my group made about the course were that there were only a limited amount of practice tests available. In the future I hope that CUP will publish practice test books as they do for their other exams.

Mid-course review
This week I would like you to review all the handouts that we have used so far and to organise them efficiently!
It is very important to file the Sample tasks for the ICFE exam so that you can review them easily.
Please look at the useful phrases for writing a formal letter from unit 2 Page 28 and unit 3 Page 38 as we will be practising an Exam Sample task in class this week.

sharing information
Dear Group
I thought that it would be a good idea to set up a blog for the ICFE preparation course and I welcome relevant contributions that will help the group to share information and to communicate in English on a daily basis.
Using this blog should also cut down on the amount of paper content in the second half of the course!
If you have any problems using this blog please let me know.
