Studying another language can be a hobby or need if you have to travel abroad, for example, to find a new job. When you decide to emigrate, a certain language level certificate may be required to get a permission to work or to study in the country you are moving to. But, even without moving to anywhere, sometimes it's great to realize the exam. It will show us if we really reach the level we want and can use it for any work even in our country where we are living. One of my purpose for the year 2017 is to realize the FCE test by the Cambridge Institute to endorse my English. Yesterday, I realized a free test online to see wether I could reach it. I really love these kind of tests. Someone has got already some experience with these kind of examinations? Please share....

I am kind of learning Greek, I need it here but so many people speak English that I get little chance to practise and learning from a book is not fun. Perhaps I need to treat my lessons as vital, so far they are just time fillers and I am never going to learn at this rate. Congrats on wanting to get your FCE. My advice to you would be to read plenty of books, magazines etc. The students who pass (in my experience) have been the ones who read a great deal.

@Meramar the Greek friends I know want to speak English, one has told me that she could not teach me Greek, although she herself is Greek and teaches English. What happens is that when we meet I correct her English, so she gets a language lesson from me and not the other way around.

@41CombedaleRoad You could do something like an exchange one hour English for one hour Greek. Nothing is for free nowadyas.

Not aware of the test. However, I do like languages and speak, English, French, Italian and I can pretend to know some Spanish and I am able to do some sign language. What languages do you know?

Similar to you, I also studied English and French at school. Spanish came later on when I moved to Spain. Spanish is the only language I've got the C2 Level Certificate as I did the oficial exam when I went back to Germany for almost two years. My curiosity keeps me to realize the exams as it holds me active not to loose them.
