Hello from cold & rainy Valparaiso! Some of you have asked recently about getting proof of your B2 English level in the Go Teacher program. I've consulted with some of my colleagues & I'm trying to get an answer about whether the EPT test scores can be correlated with the English levels. However, most international exam scores (like TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, etc.) are only valid for 2 years after the test was taken. If you took TOEFL during Go Teacher or right after you graduated from Go Teacher, your TOEFL score would have expired by now. The best way to show your B2 English level would be to re-take the TOEFL or IELTS exam. To show a B2 level on TOEFL you would need to get a minimum of 72. To show a B2 level on the IELTS you would need to get a minimum of 6.0. I hope this is helpful information!
