CELPIP Practice

Practise CELPIP in ChatGPT and Claude: Free Exam Hero App

Q: Can ChatGPT or Claude score my CELPIP writing on their own?

They can comment on it, but their CLB estimates are guesses. The app sends your Writing or Speaking answer to Exam Hero, where it is scored against the CELPIP criteria and saved to your account.

Q: Does it work in both ChatGPT and Claude?

Yes. Search for CELPIP Exam Hero in ChatGPT's apps or in Claude's connectors and connect it. The practice questions are the same in both. Recording Speaking answers in the chat depends on whether the app allows the microphone; where it doesn't, the card takes you to Exam Hero to record.

Q: Do I need to sign in to use it?

No. The practice questions work without an account. You only sign in to Exam Hero when you want a Writing or Speaking answer scored or want to keep practising.

Q: What happens to the answers I send?

Listening and Reading answers are only checked, not stored. A Writing answer or Speaking recording you send for scoring is kept for 7 days so you can open it in Exam Hero, then deleted.

Q: Is this the official CELPIP app?

No. Exam Hero is an independent CELPIP preparation platform and is not affiliated with Paragon Testing Enterprises or CELPIP.

Updated November 2026

You already ask ChatGPT and Claude for help with English. With the free CELPIP Exam Hero app, you can also practise real CELPIP questions right in the chat: exam-format tasks with timers, Listening and Reading answers marked on the spot, and a one-click path to your CLB score in Exam Hero for Writing and Speaking.

What is the CELPIP Exam Hero app?

It's an app for AI assistants built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard that lets ChatGPT, Claude and other assistants connect to outside tools. When you ask for CELPIP practice, the assistant calls our MCP server and shows an interactive practice card from Exam Hero inside your conversation. The questions come from the Exam Hero question bank, not from the AI, so they follow the real test format.

It works in both ChatGPT and Claude. No sign-in is needed to practise.

What you can do in the chat

A free question for every part. Listening Parts 1 to 6, Reading Parts 1 to 4, Writing Tasks 1 and 2 and Speaking Tasks 1 to 8, with real exam-format content and timers.
Listening and Reading marked on the spot. Answer in the chat and see which ones you got right, with an explanation for every question.
Writing and Speaking scored in Exam Hero. Write your answer in the chat and open it in Exam Hero, already filled in, to get your CLB score and feedback.
Your score, CLB and Express Entry points. Ask what your CELPIP results mean: the CLB level, the IELTS and PTE equivalents, and the Express Entry language points they're worth.
Test format and study guides. Ask how any part works, how long it takes, or for our guides on a topic.

Writing and Speaking: get your CLB score in Exam Hero

For Writing, the card gives you the task, the exam timer and a word counter. Write your answer in the chat, then choose Get my CLB score. Your answer opens in Exam Hero already filled in, so you never retype it, and it's scored against the CELPIP criteria. Scoring is free with a new Exam Hero account.

For Speaking, the card shows the task and the picture, with the same preparation and speaking times as the test. Where the assistant allows the microphone, you can record in the chat and send your answer the same way. In Claude, the card takes you straight to Exam Hero to record your answer with the exam timers.

Things to ask

“Give me a CELPIP Speaking Task 1 practice question.”
“Start CELPIP Listening Part 3 practice.”
“Give me another one.”
“I got 8 in Listening, 9 in Reading, 7 in Writing and 8 in Speaking. How many Express Entry points is that?”
“How does CELPIP Reading Part 2 work?”
“Find me tips for CELPIP Writing Task 2.”

Good to know

Each part has one free question in the chat. Say “give me another one” and the app links you to the next question for that part in Exam Hero, or offers the free question for another part.
Your CELPIP level equals your CLB level, so the app can tell you what your results mean. For the full table, see the CELPIP score chart.
When you're ready for the real thing, take a full CELPIP practice test in Exam Hero.
