How complicated is the Emirates English test on the assessment day?
2
Can I have a few examples to look at so I know what to expect?
3
Absolutely yes!
4
In today's video, I'll walk you through the exact grammar
5
and comprehension test you'll face with real examples and smart tricks to avoid common mistakes.
6
And toward the end, I'll share links to two exams you can take straight from the comfort of your home.
7
I'm Zdenka, I'm a former Emirates cabin crew and together with Orlando,
8
also an ex-Emirates crew member and a recruitment consultant with over 4 years HR management experience,
9
we are helping you land your dream job at Emirates.
10
Today, you'll learn exactly how the Emirates English Test is structured, what to expect, how to answer and how to prepare.
11
The Emirates English test happens after all your group exercises are completed.
12
The last thing you want is to pass the hard parts of the interview, only to be rejected in a silly and easy-to-pass English exam.
13
If you prepare, you won't fail.
14
Don't waste your valuable time on an open day only to fail this stage.
15
Continue watching and you'll have the tools to outperform any other candidate.
16
Let's begin with the structure of the test.
17
It helps recruiters filter out candidates who aren't fluent or sharp enough to communicate clearly.
18
For Emirates, the English test is positioned after the group exercises, but before your final interview.
19
Making your English test the only gatekeeper to your final interview.
20
And it is a pity to pass such difficult group exercises, work so hard and succeed only to fail an easy English test.
21
So let's jump right in and fix any issues with your English test now.
22
Number 1.
23
Grammar and vocabulary.
24
This part checks how well you know the mechanics of English.
25
Articles, prepositions, verb tenses, phrasal verbs, you name it.
26
You'll usually get a sentence with one missing word and four options.
27
Your job is to choose the correct one.
28
Some of the wrong answers can be tricky.
29
The best is to first go by exclusion, eliminating first the obvious wrong answers.
30
Usually this leaves with only one obvious correct answer,
31
but on some occasions the wrong answers could be still tricky enough for you to make a mistake.
32
Exercising and doing some quizzes will help you understand what type of tricks are used in the English test.
33
So if you have the opportunity, exercise at home.
34
Reading comprehension.
35
You'll be given a short test.
36
a workplace scenario, a short article or an instruction manual.
37
Then you'll be asked questions to check your understanding.
38
It's not just about reading, it's about understanding tone, purpose, logic and meaning.
39
Now let's walk for some real examples so you can start practicing.
40
I'll break down each one with the correct answer and explain why it works and why the other answers don't.
41
Grammar and Vocabulary Question 1 You must extinguish your cigarette entering the building.
42
The option A at, B before, C prior to, D within.
43
Pause here for a while so you can answer yourself and test your English grammar skills.
44
Do it on your own, I'll share the answers later to see whether you got it or not.
45
The correct answer is C, prior to.
46
Why?
47
Prior to is the correct formal preposition here.
48
At and within are wrong and don't fit.
49
Before would have been correct to, but it's missing an E at the end and therefore it's wrong.
50
Distinguishing your cigarette needs to happen before you enter prior to nails that meaning.
51
Question number 2 trackers allow you to something your heart rate
52
while exercising so the options are a checks b obtained c monitor d damage let's pause here again answer
53
and i'll then tell you what was correct So which one did you choose?
54
The correct answer was C, monitor.
55
Monitor fits because it means to observe or track over time.
56
Checks is the wrong verb form.
57
Obtained makes no sense contextually and damage is completely irrelevant here.
58
So how did you answer the above questions?
59
Did you get them right?
60
Did you struggle?
61
If yes, you may need to further work on your English.
62
Expect 20 questions like these.
63
And remember, there is a timer doing a countdown for each exercise, so you need to think quickly.
64
Don't overthink things and don't change your mind too often.

- Let's begin with the structure of the test.
- You'll be given a short test.
- Then you'll be asked questions to check your understanding.
- Did you get them right?
Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione
Chi parla usa 29 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come you'll, I'll, don't. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.
- I suoni “sh” e “zh”: comprehension /ˌkɑmpɹɪˈhɛnʃn̩/, preposition /ˌpɹɛpəˈzɪʃən/, aviation /ˌeɪ̯.viːˈeɪ̯.ʃən/, simulation /ˌsɪm.jəˈleɪ.ʃn̩/, extinguish /ɪkˈstɪŋ.ɡwɪʃ/
- Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, preposition /ˌpɹɛpəˈzɪʃən/, aviation /ˌeɪ̯.viːˈeɪ̯.ʃən/, evacuate /ɪˈvæk.ju.eɪt/, extinguisher /ɪkˈstɪŋɡwɪʃə(ɹ)/
I suoni difficili per chi parla italiano:
- /h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: comprehension /ˌkɑmpɹɪˈhɛnʃn̩/, hospitality /ˌhɑ.spɪˈtæl.ə.ti/
- Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: pause /pɔːz/, verb /vɝb/, evacuate /ɪˈvæk.ju.eɪt/, turbulence /ˈtɝ.bjə.ləns/, quiz /kwɪz/
- /æ/ — più aperta della “e”: grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, cabin /ˈkæbɪn/, evacuate /ɪˈvæk.ju.eɪt/, galley /ˈɡæli/
Come esercitarsi con questo video
- Ascolta tutto il video una volta senza parlare e annota le parole che non conosci.
- Fai shadowing frase per frase a velocità normale, ripetendo ognuna finché il tuo ritmo coincide con quello di chi parla.
- Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come grammar, comprehension, pause.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
