Introduction
Introduction
English for Asia Learning Centre is currently the only Trinity Registered Examination Centre in Macao. Candidates range from school or college students to mature learners wanting to gain accreditation for their English skills for educational and professional purposes.
Trinity Graded Examinations in Spoken English (GESE)
GESE is one of the most popular and trusted series of English language examinations for testing speaking and listening skills. We have been offering GESE examinations since 2007. The exam takes the form of a one-to-one conversation with a highly qualified Trinity examiner who comes from the UK. Preparing for and sitting a GESE exam builds confidence in English language communication.
Trinity Stars: Young Performers in English Awards
The Trinity Stars Award encourages the learning of the English language through drama, music and performance. These awards show how performance-related activities support learning, motivate children and build their confidence and communication skills.

GESE is suitable for all students, whatever their level, from absolute beginner to full mastery. There are 12 examination grades from beginner to advanced. The minimum age for entry to a GESE examination is 5 (or 4 for a GESE grade 1). At each stage candidates carry out a number of realistic speaking and listening tasks that demonstrate their fluency, accuracy and ability to communicate in spoken English.
The Trinity Stars Award is designed to encourage students learning the English language through actions, music and performance. At each stage, students are assessed according to their English language ability. This is a group performance award designed for children aged anywhere between 4 and 12 years old who are starting to learn in English.

What parents say
What parents say
“My wife and I are raising our daughter in Macao in a bi-lingual household speaking Cantonese and English, with her initial education spent in a traditional Cantonese language kindergarten. We had decided to transfer to an English Language Primary school in order to develop her English Language skills. The school we wished to place our daughter is competitive. Prior to applying to the school, we enrolled my daughter into the Trinity GESE examination. My daughter was successfully placed into Primary 1 at the school of our first choice, with the help of the GESE certification.”
