IELTS Preparation
> IELTS Preparation The IELTS Preparation course is designed for students who are new to IELTS exam preparation and have little to no prior experience with its format and requirements. This course aims to build a solid foundation in the four key skills assessed in the IELTS exam: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening.
The course is interspersed with general activities that will give students the foundation to understand what they will meet on the IELTS test.
Students will be taught and supported by experienced educators to develop a deeper insight and understanding of the required test-taker behaviours (for example, test preparedness, time management under stress) and to perform at their individual optimum.
