Free placement exam and needs analysis
Placement exam and needs analysis for your whole team. A1–C1, with 1–1½ hours total and 3–5 days to finish.
Servers work hotel restaurants, banquet service with exact dietary counts and busy bars around events. Speed and accuracy in English on an order is what the event window demands.
Your servers and bartenders practice exactly what they face in front of a guest: taking the order, describing the menu and handling allergies. Model phrases, natural-voice audio and daily correction — not grammar rules nobody repeats at the counter. The full program for servers and bartenders — the situations it rehearses, the target level and the price bands — is on the national restaurant & bar page.
The San Gabriel Valley's hospitality workforce is substantially Spanish-speaking, and Pasadena's hotels draw on it in housekeeping, banquet, stewarding and food service. Guests are conference attendees, visiting academics and event crowds, most of them domestic and all of them English-speaking. Event weeks are the operational test: a lobby full of arrivals asking the same logistics questions at once, and a front line that hesitates becomes the guest experience that day.
A2 minimum to take an order; B1 to recommend and resolve. The placement exam fixes each person's real level on the A1 to C1 scale, and daily practice is set from that starting point, not from the team average.
