Thank you, Cambridge English
Cambridge English is this is the real KET speaking test for this year?
@@HongTran-pd6zq Yes, it is.
Cambridge English is there a test in Brazil? Or do I need to travel to do it?
@@angelabalestrin988 Cultura Inglesa =)
I like how their Italian accent is strong. I think it’s cute. On the other hand, this video reminded me when I took my first Cambridge proficiency test. Best of luck for them!
Not always you can put "to" after the verb
@@skxll5535 omg! They are at A2 level! Their performance is amazing 🙂
Me too what your name
Actually it isn't as they would both receive a high grade for their pronunciation: both are clear.
Same😅 The FCE was the hardest for me, then it improved and got easier.
Why am I watching this, when I’m preparing for the C1 test?
You watch this, for practicing and learn something new.
Sameee
same
@@djdbernardo4304 It doesn't make sense she was on C1
LMAO SAME
hate to see people being rude to them in the comments, they’re clearly children learning a new language so different from their own native language, and they kindly agree to filming and posting the video, they are doing great 😊
i didnt see they insult them in comments
@@AndreasRill-qv4qe they are deleted by Cambridge
you'll get bad grades or hit by your butt brooooo.
0:53 that kid is very smart .At my English exams I said that English is my fav subject and at my french exams I that that French is my fav sub
Hahaha so do I
sosth
xD
Lol
Im from spain i do not do french exam ur so lucky ._ .
So cute how Luca confused "camera" with "room". For those of you who don't know, "camera" is the Italian for "room" :) It's called a "false friend"
Camera is also room in Romanian! :D
But he was wise enough to answer that his fave place in the house is his bedroom😊
So adorableee with they lovely italian accent!
*their
Thanks😂🇮🇹
Thanks
Si sentiva un botto l accento italiano😍😍😍
Me too
I have to study for my exams now, but for some reason I'm watching this
You better study than to coby my comment.
To be honest I didn't see yours before 😂 they seem to be really similar lol. Anyway I don't have to study anymore. I am done with all the exams 😁
That’s TOTALLY MY CASE right now !!!!😂😂
Sammee
I too😂
I like that the examinator is smiling at them even when they have nothing to say. I wish all examinators were like her :)
P.S. Thank you, guys, for 100 likes!!! I've never got so many :)
Omg I read examinador as “terminator” 🤣 🤣 🤣
It’s a video. She is doing her best.
I live in Italy and all of the examinator were so kind
ikr it makes you feel so good like you actually achieved something ig
I think their English is so cute. And they can communicate, which is basically the point of learning a language, so
This test is so important for students who want to go to great universities like Cambridge. I’m an English teacher in Brazil and my students have difficulties in learning some words, but it is normal.
yes
To tentando aprender aos poucos, faço curso mas quero aprender mais por fora para ver se faço algumas das provas e consiga algum trabalho ou até mesmo estudos para fora
Neymar 🤪🇧🇷🇧🇷
@@arunalakshmi7946 Myanmar
That definitely have A2! Congratulations on learning a language
Omg, I don't know why but I like her. She is a cutie so sweet
hello
The same feeling
As a.former teacher of English I would like to express my appreciation for the nice professional attitude of the examiner and the clever performance of the two young candidates.The video is examplary and pleasant.
Hahaha their accent is so Italian, I love them
I have a lot of a2 students and it's heartwarming to watch these two. They're just adorable. They use quite a variety of structures with decent accuracy and they seem to understand everything that is told to them. Great job, guys.
I love how they say vowels after words that finish with a consonant like "balse", "interestingue" or "bookse" because in their mother tongue almost every word finishes in a vowel. Thus they adopted this festure when they were speaking english
It’s so cute how they end their words in English w a slight vowel sound just like they would in Italian
Your accent is a sign of bravery and shows all the effort that we made to learn
As a foreigner who tries to learn italian, i can totally relate with the mistakes that they make. They think in terms of italian and translates them into english and than they talk. All the mistakes that they made were actually the essential parts of their language. For example; she said “i like talking to they” in italian they and them are the same word as; “loro”. Or they never said i like watching tv, instead they said “watch tv” because in italian you say in the watch tv as “mi piace guardare il tv”. Sooo relatable!
spanish students use to make those mistakes too!
People who speak all the languages which Latin is their origin when speaking English make the same mistakes.
They are cute. And remember appreciate the effort that a person makes when is trying to learn a foreing language.
Can we talk ?
Well done! Passed my C2 after 4 years in an english college in switzerland. I still remember the FCE exam:). In my teenage years I stuttered, which got worse when I was nervous. However my teachers knew that and helped me. Also the examiners are familiar with that and it wont really impact your overall mark. Just try to follow the instructions and talk as often with friends/ or your teacher. Good luck if you are reading this;)
thank you!!!
i have my b2 exam in one week and i have the same problem with stuttering as you had, and it makes me really nervous to think that i wont talk as good as i i can because of that :(
Sandra has actually gentle voice. It's pleasure for my ears
I like how she said "No, not at all". Not many of my Italian students say this. Watching this reminds me that the mistakes they make are identical to mine who are also 12-13 years old. It happens :) We learn from them. Bravi ragazzi!
I think that the only thing they need improve it’s the pronunciation
Even some verbs
It's A2, they're doing pretty great!
Believe if you are in C1 you still have some Italian pronunciation.Anyway there is no perfect english accent,if you go to UK you will hear rusty and complicated accents because they eat and modificate words.at the end a lot of foreigners speak better that some natives.
@@Kameleonic pronunciation and accent.
Everyone could understand that a person is Italian only from the italian accent in speaking english
I came here sure to find a lot of joke about the Italian accent, instead i found a lot of people that love it 😳 Thanks guys, and don’t forget to do this 🤌🏻while you speak !
I hope that those guys currently know to speak better their english. I am 14 years and I can speak spanish, english and italian. Nothing is Imposible 💪
tomorrow I will have this test, let's hope for the best 🤞🤞🤞
🤞
her yes at 4:00 was perfect
These videos are great. I always use them to help students prepare for their speaking exam. At this level students, understandably make mistakes, and I think this actually helps my students relax as they realise they are allowed to make mistakes and not be perfect. For them to see a real live situation is so helpful. Thank you Cambridge and thank you Luca and Frederica for agreeing to the video and hope you continue your English journey.
Glad it was helpful!
Wish me luck I have the mock exam tomorrow also good job federica and luca!
I enjoy coming back and watching these test videos. It reminds me when I was their level.
I'm gonna do my test this year. I'm Brazilian and I studied for so many years to do right now, I'm so excited and very nervous too. Watching and learn how to behave. Wish me luck guys!
Good luck! Break a leg!
How is your test, mate?)
Congratulations to them they will keep learning more English
I'm trying to learn in English language. These videos are so great for me.
Honestly, they are good at English at their age. When I was at school at their age some of my classmates could barely read. These two just have a strong accent. They will get better at English, I'm sure!
I'm greek and eleven years old. I think I already speak good English, but I just keep listening to these.
That's great. Good luck and keep practicing 🥰
@@adri9817 Thanks! Motivation is really important to me! :)
Thank you Cambridge for uploading this and many other videos first of all.
To ALL the people who read this, try not to be critical. It is unfair to write an opinion which is negative when NO ONE is perfect.
All candidates can make mistakes. These kinds of videos are uploaded so others can have the opportunity to experience what it is like to do these types of exams and hopefully learn positive things from other candidates doing any speaking exam.
morning i have a on line exam with my english teacher
and with this channel i cann study
How absolutely fantastic that they are able to communicate, albeit with errors, in a language that is foreign to them. I'm sure their levels have increased dramatically since the time when this was recorded!
It's so great that they're 13 yo and had that level, here in Mexico it's very difficult for children's of that age to learn a new language. :')
In the Publics school yes its difficult but in the Privates schools no xd
@@CarlosGarcia-lw5cw No en todas, eso sería generalizar.
No en todas, en las privadas si enseñan, yo tengo 14 y este año terminamos el B1 para pasar al B2, no generalices
I watch tv in my camera , cuz “camera” means room in italian
I’m going to do this test in may probably and I’m so excited 😆
how did it go
I like English language because The Very first thing It is international language through this language we can go anywhere anytime😀😀😀
Don't forget the articles. It sounds awfull if they aren't there. Which langues are you nativ in?
Hey there, as an Italian, I don't like the accent when we speak English, that's why having a american accent will make you sound better.
Im an English teacher and a native English speaker and I think these children did very well for A2 level well done Luca and Federica
I very like it
never heard this before, looks like they memorized the speech first
I actually love, truly love their accents
İ totally understand what they feel. İ also entered the exam and i got B1. Now, i am B2 and i am fourteen years öld.
It´s interesting to know the English level. I like to learn but I write more than hear some people that speak the language english.
Greetings from Colombia.
I love Federica's facial expression at 1:13
As an Italian I can tell you average Italian students do that in general when they don’t know how to answer to the teacher it’s kinda cool tbh
i dont know why im watching this, because i am not even gonna take a test or something
Idk why,but i watching this at 2 pm and i loving it,and idk why but i love listening same interviews(hi from Kazakhstan)
no name hi. It’s 3.17 am right now from me 😂
@@DanDAlittleMan hahahahahhahah
Good video, I also try to answer the interviewer... it makes me practice too
These students are very competent indeed for an A2 level. Bravi!
Ohh, this brings me lot of memories. You just put your whole body in the chair, and English take to train 10000 kilometers away your brain.
This video it's the exact image of what happens there.
Thank you Cambridge
@@impotato4957 U have to do it in pairs because there is a part where you have to discuss things
@@emamorais you are right.
I loved how they speak with an Italian accent, so funny and cute.
Both are 13 years old and A2 level is very good. Thank you for share this video.
im 14 and im a c2 level
@@laviniaonu7815 e sti cazzi?
I'm in A1 and its the same.
@@Insidia85 HAHAHAHAHAHAGAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHJ
Thanks, Luca and Federica for agreeing to be filmed.
This is coming from an American and they both sound great! Also compared to any other Americans trying to speak Italian we just stink at learning other languages. Like not everyone a lot of people are multilingual but like most people suck at learning other languages so they are doing so well.
I will finish level a1 in about a month and I'm so exicted for learn more english. Cheers and hope you're okay ✌🏽
Sorry for my redaction i don't speak English very good.
Good luck, keep going ;)
I like how Italians pronounce the end of the sylables voiced: EngilSH, maTH. Also Finnish students with super advanced level of English do this.
I'm American. Honestly, i just want to learn this English conversation and questions at same time. ( By the way, i am deaf student, but please don't feel bad about me okay? Thank you so much for the captions)
How old are you?😊
@@admire704 Ah, I'm 16 years old.
@@zerogamer1414 are you studing?

What's features ????
I have a cambridge exam tummorow this is very good for the exam ❤❤
this video reminded me when i took my first A2 test
Wow they're only 13 and already this fluent, I wish I was this good at their age
Federica is really good.She looks pleasant.Cambridge English Thank you so much because I have my ket exam tomorrow and I've got new vocabulary.
I love you. I am Yasser Al-Selwi, from Yemen, a beginner in learning English, I was honored to know you
Hello there! Thank you for sharing this useful video. As a teacher using a book to teach certain parts of speaking at various points, would it be possible to not the timestamps indicating each part so it's easier to find the right part. It's not a huge issues, if impractical as the video is about 7 mins. But it may useful for higher levels. Many thanks :)
I loved the pair in this test! Federica and Luca are so fun to watch! A complete meme feast! In a good way! You guys rock
Very good. This help me a lot. I train my listening.
I am an English teacher and tomorrow I'll have an exam with my students❤
Thanks for this video🎉 These student are very cool
I like Italian accent too, really like it
They did a great job!! :)
She is asking very easy questions
I Watched the video and I like it
It's really worthy of being an A2 person. That's so awesome.
aww they have an adorable accent
⭐️🥺
A fun fact happened to me while I was scrolling down the comments to see how people react to this, I saw lots of people writing down all the mistakes and particularly one of them wrote just one mistake. This implies he/she didn’t get that people attend English courses to study the language, making mistake of course helps you to improve your skills and boosting your fluency in English. When you take note of the mistakes, fam, let me say that, you d better stop, especially if you notice just one mistake, that means you don’t understand anything. Wish me the best of luck, I have the CAE exam on Sunday.
Hope u pass the exam!!
Exactly. Hopefully they actually passed and achieved A2. I know you can pass too! That comment looks very good written
They speak very good. All is a big learning process, even we all have an advanced level make some mistakes but who cares? While you can be understood and be able to comunicate, the rest comes by itself. i really like their speaking . i think they will be : 170 / 200
How beautiful it is when an italian accent is strong when they speak english
Please be kind to these lovely students. They are learning English and they are comfortably an A2 level.
When speaking mistakes are a part of the learning of a second language. Here in Spain most of the English teachers focus on grammar aspects forgetting the priority we should concede to the oral production skills, both listening and speaking. When you ask the students to put into passive " She gave me some money" in their activity book or notebook you are mistaken the real perspective of the funtional English use. Why not to ask them better We she given some money? More efectvie, easier and more appropriate to a real conversational context.
It shows how high the level of L2 is as these students are still under the age of 13 and they are already at this level. Well done!
I'm 12, from Greece and English is my L2. I have passed my B2 examination, A2 really isn't something to be proud of.
Sure, you can call it as progress in a language, and I think their level is relatively good since I was in Italy last year and no one spoke an L2, but in a global scale, they are pretty much behind others.
@@HellenicMapping Yeah agreed, A2 isn't that impressive considering they are 13 years old.
I completely agree with both of you. Having an A2 level in a language is not something to be highly proud of, for it is really easy to get (It takes a maximum of 200 hours). Despite this, it could still be considered as progress.
We need this interview like this plz
So cute! Well done Federica and Luca :)
Are the examiners’ comments and the candidates’ marks available? I mean, below some other Speaking Exam Videos there were downloadable examiners’s notes to get even a clearer picture of what is expected.
It's good for me because I'll always learn with these videos
i have to take KET exam on 15th of may and this video helps me a lot so thank you very much🥰😇
My exam is in 3 days!
Luca and Federica were making a perfect work! I'm a student from Vietnam and I'm in the A2 KET course. I think they passed the test very good. Sometime they delayed and make some mistake but that's OK because the natives also do it too. I hope they will get high score.
they r very cute... keep it up luca and federica.. me also still struggle with english in my 24 yo :")
Thanks a lot for the video. I'm about to deliver a course to prepare some students to take the KET and this was really useful. One question. Have they passed the test? If yes, which mark?
Yes, they both achieved A2 level and would have passed were this a real test.
Could anyone please explain to me why does the examiner say why like ? Is it a dialect or something?
I really enjoy the video, their italian accent, beacause we all have one! :D
I like and then the verb with ING , I like playing football , do you like playing football ? PLS these are the first things to learnnnnn, but I like seeing them , it makes me think when I did it😍
That Italian accent came through, proud and thick! I found it endearing.
Hey! They did not make any mistakes, I think they are just shy when taking the exam 💯
I love the fact that I can understand aaa
And I love you
If i was over there it would be good opportunity for prove myself.
Thank you Cambridge English
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
They have a pretty good level of English for their age (I hope I didn't make any mistakes)
