IELTS Exam Preparation

  • Achieve the score you need

  • Practice and revision for the test

  • Exam success strategies

IELTS is the International English Language Testing System, designed for people who want to study where English is the main language of communication. Results from IELTS tests are recognised by universities, colleges and professional bodies in the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand and throughout the world. IELTS gives you a test report that shows an overall score for your level of English ability from 1 (non-user) to 9 (expert user).

The test is made up of four parts – Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. The Speaking test is a face-to-face interview with a certified Examiner. The total test time is 2 hours and 45 minutes and consists of:

Academic Reading: 3 sections, 40 items, 60 minutes
Academic Writing: 2 tasks: 150 words and 250 words, 60 minutes
Listening: 4 sections, 40 items, 30 minutes
Speaking: 11 to 14 minutes

 

Our course helps you to:

  • Be confident in handling all aspects of the exam

  • Express your thoughts and opinions fluently

  • Gain an expanded range of vocabulary and expressions

  • Use grammar and syntax effectively

  • Overcome the anxiety of facing the exam through intensive exam practice

 

Taking the exam

We can help you to register for the exam if you would like to take the test at the end of your course.  There is a choice of exam test centres within central London.  Test dates are usually available once a month so you can plan your course duration to match the test dates.  We can help you with information about test dates and test locations.

 

Course content

Our IELTS Preparation course consists of 20 hours of English language skills per week including lessons for exam preparation and exam skills.  You can start on any Monday of the week.  Our IELTS courses are built around a strong course structure that supports the learning and guides progress.  We measure this progress clearly and visibly to highlight strengths, needs and objectives.

You will be asked to complete an online placement test before your arrival so we can start to assess your level. We also need you to answer some questions about your needs and objectives so that we have a good understanding of what you hope to achieve by the end of the course.
