A Cambridge English certificate is one of the most widely recognised proofs of English ability a student can hold — schools value it, universities recognise it, and unlike most school grades it never expires. Al Khawarizmi Institute is an authorized Cambridge training centre and has prepared students in Lebanon since 2011, with classes at three branches and online.
Built for parents planning ahead
Most of our Cambridge students are school students whose parents want their English certified early — before university applications make it urgent. Preparation follows the exam your child is targeting: the exam format, the vocabulary range it expects, and timed practice until the real paper feels familiar. Parents receive honest feedback about readiness — we would rather delay an exam entry than send a child to fail it.
What preparation includes
- Level check against the target exam before enrolment
- Training on every paper — reading, writing, listening and speaking
- Timed mock practice in the real exam format
- Readiness feedback before you book the exam date

Talk to us
Call 00961 71 27 67 13 or message us on WhatsApp with the exam you have in mind — we will check your child’s level and send group dates and fees the same day. Classes at Beirut, Chouf and Choueifat or online.
When should a student start?
Earlier than most families think. Exam-format training works best when there is time to close gaps calmly — a school year, not a summer. Starting early also means your child sits the exam at the level they can actually pass, instead of squeezing preparation into the months before a university deadline. If you are unsure whether now is the right time, send us a message: the level check is the honest way to find out, and it commits you to nothing.
