Course design

A course book is used every day in class. It is very important for students to buy this course book as it provides the basis of the course.
The course books chosen for this course are always focussed on the IELTS exam.
There is regular exam practice. This may take the form of one whole paper from the exam or a sample of questions.
Supplementary materials are also used to add variety and consolidate the course book- based work.
Teachers often set homework for this course. Students are expected to complete all homework assignments. The IELTS exam are challenging and students must be prepared to devote plenty of time to private study if they wish to achieve their target score.
Every week there is revision of the work done in the previous week. As we operate a continuous enrolment system, new students join the class all of the time. By revising functions, tenses and lexis, new students are not left behind. We also believe that revision and reinforcement are necessary learning tools.

Who is the IELTS course for?

Foreign students who wish to study at a British university usually need to attain an IELTS score before they are accepted onto the course. Some professional organisations in the UK also require foreign practioners whose first language is not English to achieve an IELTS score. For full details, please visit the IELTS website.
