Information on taking the CELPIP exam in Winnipeg, the issues to decide if it's the right test for you and the path for finding a tutor or self-studying in Winnipeg.

Winnipeg
Manitoba

The number of immigrants and international students now residing in Winnipeg has risen considerably and the relatively new CELPIP test, developed in Vancouver, is gaining ground.

Is the CELPIP Test For You? Important Issues

CELPIP is a relatively new test compred to IELTS and TOEFL but it is well developed and professional. There are 2 testing locations in Winnipeg. Like any standardized test you need to see if it fits you as an individual. For example:

1. Am I comfortable with computerized tests?

2. Do I like multiple choice format?

3. Do I mind a progressive test? (i.e. starts easy and gets harder)

4. Is budget important? (CELPIP is cheaper)

Home Tutoring

If you would rather not make the trip out to Winnipeg and prefer the comfort, efficiency and tailor-made qualities of home tutoring, please go through the CELPIP Tutor Winnipeg page. CELPIP is a test with a lot of different elements so check the CELPIP course page to see what it entails and if you feel comfortable, register a spot to proceed.

Outside of the Home Tutoring

If you would prefer studying outside of your home but still stick to a one on one study arrangement, students and tutors can arrange to meet outside. Simply send us a request and we will arrange one at your convenience.

Taking Classes

There are a few establishments that run CELPIP group classes and none that offers accredited CELPIP programs. Check the dates and times carefully to see whether it fits your schedule.

Self-Study

Self-studying CELPIP in Winnipeg is a matter of collecting as many free resources as you can from public librairies, from the CELPIP official site. and from Youtube Sites such as Careeraxis and Fast Track ESL. I have posted information on the CELPIP exam and you can visit for study tips, strategies, skills and topics and also current exams. I have posted external links to other sites such as Wenku and one called Yingyu. Both of these are in Chinese but you can translate them and they do give some very interesting information and practice

Test Taking

There are just 2 locations to take the test in Winnipeg - one on 1700 Portage Ave (Herzing College) and the other on 280 William Avenue (Heartland Intl School) . Locations are posted conveniently in alphabetical order on our Winnipeg test locations site to double check that there have been no changes, go into it from the official CELPIP website. I have posted the current test schedule as well.
