of a framework of teaching awards offered by Cambridge
The Teaching Knowledge Test (TKT) is designed and produced by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations (Cambridge ESOL), a department of the University of Cambridge and part of the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate, which has provided examinations in English for speakers of other languages since 1913. Cambridge ESOL offers an extensive range of examinations, certificates and diplomas for learners and teachers of English, taken by over 1.5 million people a year, in more than 130 countries.
Introduction to TKT – a test of professional knowledge for English language teachers TKT tests knowledge about the teaching of English to speakers of other languages. This knowledge includes concepts related to language, language use and the background to and practice
suitable for pre-service or practising teachers and forms part ESOL. This includes CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults); CELTYL (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Young Learners); ICELT (In-service Certificate in English Language Teaching); and DELTA (Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults). These are based on the following content areas: subject knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and knowledge of context. TKT covers the first three of these areas of knowledge, but unlike the other teaching awards, TKT does not assess knowledge of teaching context. This area is most appropriately assessed through teaching practice, which does not form part of the assessment of TKT. Other teaching qualifications offered by Cambridge ESOL include two specifically designed for the further education and skills sector within the UK.

following page.
TKT is designed to offer maximum flexibility and accessibility for candidates and therefore does not include a compulsory course component or compulsory teaching practice. However, it is likely that centres and other institutions will wish to offer courses for TKT preparation and these may also include some teaching practice, if desired. It should be noted that TKT tests teaching knowledge rather than teaching ability. TKT offers candidates a step in their professional development as teachers and enables them to move onto higher-level teaching qualifications and access professional support materials, such as journals about English language teaching (ELT). TKT candidates are encouraged to keep a portfolio, a record of their professional development and reflections on their teaching. Through their portfolio candidates should become reflective practitioners, analysing their teaching and how this impacts on their students’ learning. However, the portfolio does not form part of the assessment for TKT.

Note: Cambridge ESOL also offers IDLTM and the Young Learner Extension to CELTA. IDLTM is an educational management qualification and, as such, does not focus on knowledge about or practice of teaching. The Young Learner Extension to CELTA shares similarities with CELTYL, except that entry is conditional on candidates having completed CELTA.

TKT candidature TKT is suitable for teachers of English in primary, secondary or adult teaching contexts and is intended for an international audience of non-first language or first language teachers of English. Candidates taking TKT will normally have some experience of teaching English to speakers of other languages. TKT may also be taken by: • pre-service teachers • teachers who wish to refresh their teaching knowledge • teachers who are moving to teaching English after teaching another subject. To access TKT, teachers need a level of English of at least Level B1 of the Council of Europe’s Common European Framework of

Part 1
3
This part of Module 3 tests candidates’ knowledge of the functions of classroom language, and how to adapt teacher language according to its audience and purpose. It also tests candidates’ knowledge of the appropriacy of teachers’ classroom language, how to analyse learners’ language and categorise learners’ errors. Candidates need to demonstrate an understanding of concepts and terminology related to:
Syllabus area
Possible testing focus
the functions commonly used by the teacher in the classroom
• identification of a range of classroom functions and typical exponents • appropriacy of use, e.g. degrees of simplicity of language, appropriateness of sequencing, degrees of formality
identifying the functions of language used by learners in the classroom (tasks may involve analysis of learner language which is not completely accurate)
• identification of common functions and typical exponents • identification of communicative purpose • appropriacy of use
categorising learners’ mistakes
• categorising types of mistakes, e.g. spelling, wrong verb form, subject-verb agreement
Part 2 This part of Module 3 tests candidates’ knowledge of the range and function of strategies available to a teacher for managing classes in ways appropriate to learners and to teaching and learning aims. These include variety of activity and pace, ways of grouping learners, techniques for correcting learners’ mistakes and the roles a teacher can fulfil at different stages of the lesson. Candidates need to demonstrate an understanding of concepts and terminology related to the following and their implications for the L2 classroom:
Syllabus area
Possible testing focus
the roles of the teacher
• common teacher roles, e.g. manager, diagnostician, planner • functions of teacher roles, e.g. managing the teaching space, establishing systems for praise and reward, establishing rules, routines and procedures; analysing learners’ needs; building a variety into lessons, planning lessons to meet learners’ needs
grouping learners
• common classroom interaction patterns and their uses • grouping of learners and reasons for this
correcting learners
• methods of oral and written correction, and their appropriacy of use
giving feedback
• the focus and purpose of feedback • ways of giving feedback

TKT test administration Modular structure TKT has three modules. These can be taken together in one examination session or separately, in any order, over three sessions.
Entry procedure Candidates must enter through an authorised Cambridge ESOL Centre. A list of Cambridge ESOL Examination Centres is available from Cambridge ESOL from the address on page 1. Institutions wishing to become Cambridge ESOL Examination
Each question carries one mark, so the maximum mark for each module is 80. Candidate performance is reported using four bands.

be submitted to Cambridge ESOL at least six weeks prior to running the session. Please note that more notice may be necessary if candidates have special requirements and therefore need Special Arrangements (see below). Candidates may not repeat a module within four months at any centre.
The reporting of results for TKT is subject to ongoing research. Further guidance on the interpretation of results will be issued in the future.

address on page 1.
Answer sheet completion Candidates mark all their answers on OMR (Optical Mark Reader) answer sheets, which are scanned by computer in Cambridge. There is one answer sheet per module, and candidates must fill in all their answers within the time allowed for the test. A sample OMR answer sheet can be found on page 44 of this Handbook, and it is useful for candidates to practise filling in an OMR sheet before taking the examination so that they are familiar with the procedure.
Computer-based TKT A computer-based version of TKT (CB TKT) is also available via the Cambridge Connect internet delivery system. Please contact your local Cambridge ESOL centre for more information.
Enquiries on results may be made through Cambridge ESOL Local Secretaries within a month of the issue of certificates.
Appeals procedure Cambridge ESOL provides a service to enable Centres to appeal, on behalf of candidates, against assessment decisions that affect grades awarded to candidates, e.g. decisions relating to results and decisions relating to irregular conduct. Candidates should first contact their Cambridge ESOL Local Secretary for advice. Further information about the appeals procedure can be found at www.CambridgeESOL.org/support

Common questions and answers
TKT wordlist
Can candidates make notes on the question paper?
The words are entered into categories so as to help the reader.
Candidates may write on the question paper during the examination, but their notes will not be marked. Candidates must complete an answer sheet, which is then scanned.
This list is indicative only. Other terms may also be used in TKT.
Some words could fall into more than one category. However, to economise on space each word has been entered only once. Candidates who are preparing for only one module should ensure they have an understanding of all the TKT terminology.
Does it matter if candidates write in pen or pencil?
The TKT Glossary contains definitions of the words in this list
Candidates must use a pencil to mark their answers on the
