hello everyone thank you for joining me

0:02

again and welcome to any new viewers

0:03

this is to the point english with ben

0:06

i'm ben

0:07

and in this video i'm going to answer

0:09

one of the most common questions that

0:11

students have when they decide to sign

0:14

up for a cambridge english exam

0:16

and that question is do i need a teacher

0:19

or is it possible to prepare for and

0:21

pass

0:22

the exam

0:24

only with self-study now of course the

0:26

answer to that question depends on many

0:29

factors

0:30

but for those of you who just want a

0:32

short answer i would say yes it is

0:34

possible to prepare for and pass the

0:36

cambridge english exams whether it's the

0:38

b21st c1 advanced or c2 proficiency

0:42

without a teacher and with only

0:43

self-study

0:45

however i wouldn't recommend it

0:48

now you may think of course you would

0:49

say that you are an english teacher who

0:51

specializes in preparing people for the

0:54

cambridge english exams

0:55

0:59

to prepare for and pass the cambridge

1:01

english exams without a teacher and then

1:03

later i'm going to explain why perhaps

1:06

it's a good idea to have a teacher now
