The English NMT is not just a test of “knowing the language”. It is an exam with a specific structure, typical tasks and repeated traps.
That is why the best preparation is not to study everything chaotically, but to follow a clear plan.
Where to start
The first step is to determine the student’s current level. One student may need to revise basic grammar, another may need to expand vocabulary, and another may need to learn how to read faster and avoid losing points because of attention mistakes.
Without diagnostics, it is easy to spend time on topics that are already clear and miss the weak points that cost the most points.
What usually needs to be revised
- English tenses;
- passive voice;
- conditionals;
- modal verbs;
- articles and prepositions;
- word formation;
- vocabulary for reading;
- typical NMT task formats.
Why self-study is often not enough
Self-study can work if the student is very disciplined and clearly understands what exactly needs to be revised.
But in practice, three problems often appear:
- no system;
- no control of mistakes;
- no clear test strategy.
That is why individual preparation can be more effective: the teacher sees mistakes, explains difficult topics in simple words, gives the right tasks and gradually leads the student toward a stronger result.

Student results
193+ point guarantee. Graf Academy preparation is built so that the student reaches a result of 193+ points, provided they attend lessons regularly, complete homework and follow the individual study plan.
After systematic preparation at Graf Academy, the target result is 193+ points in English.
We do not treat all students as identical: we build a structure, control mistakes and follow a plan that significantly increases the chances of a stronger NMT result.
How much time is needed
It depends on the starting level and the desired score.
If time is limited, it is better not to try to learn everything, but to focus on the topics that appear most often in the test and give the biggest result increase.
Ideally, preparation should start in advance and be regular.
Conclusion
English NMT preparation should be systematic. It is important to know the test format, revise key grammar, learn how to work with texts and regularly analyze mistakes.
If you want to prepare not alone, but with a teacher and a clear plan, Graf Academy can help build an individual program for your level, deadline and desired result.
