Browse tutors who specialize in each exam — structured plans, mock tests, and targeted drilling.
The exam you pick should match your destination, your industry, and where you are right now.
Moving to Japan? You need the JLPT. Applying for a German visa? Goethe-Zertifikat. Studying in France? DELF. The right certificate is often determined by where you're going, not just what you speak.
Tech jobs in Korea require TOPIK. Global business roles value IELTS or TOEFL. Teaching positions abroad often require local-language certs. Match your certificate to your industry's actual requirements.
Beginner? Start with HSK 1–2, TOPIK I, or JLPT N5. Intermediate? Target TOPIK II, JLPT N3, or DELF B1. Advanced learners aim for JLPT N1, HSK 5–6, or DALF C1. A placement test makes this easy.
