IELTS is the most popular exam course, for students who wish to progress to university or further their career. The exam is accredited by Cambridge University, and was taken by over 2 million students last year.
This course aims to better prepare candidates for the IELTS test by teaching them several strategies to help them approach and answer the test questions. The techniques learned will maximise their potential to achieve the desired IELTS band.

By the end of the course students will have greater knowledge and an increased vocabulary & language awareness. They will feel more confident in their ability to pass the test at the desired level and will be more effective in both written and oral communications in English.
