Course Outline
This course covers listening, reading, writing, and speaking in roughly equal proportions. We will briefly introduce IELTS, the test format, question types, and scoring criteria. We will also assist you in expanding your topic-specific vocabulary by providing lists of academic words and common expressions used in the IELTS exam and teaching you test-taking strategies such as time management, guessing strategies, and approaching different question types. This course aspires to encourage you as a future proficient English communicator, with each lecture covering one of four IELTS sections with explanations, examples, exercises, mock tests, and expert feedback. Learning and authentic test materials are provided without extra charge.

This course is for students aiming to achieve a band score of 6 or higher, helping them save time, money, and stress by avoiding repeated IELTS tests, skipping pre-sessional English courses, and eliminating the need for international travel to study English or prepare for the IELTS exam.
