IELTS Exam Preparation

The IELTS exam, or the International English Language Testing System, is a test of English proficiency which is required by many English-speaking schools, universities and workplaces around the world. IELTS measures students' reading, writing, listening and speaking skills, and assesses their ability to communicate for work, study or life in Anglophone countries.

This year we have a number students going to Oxford to sit an IELTS exam, and our experienced tutor has been intensively preparing all students in Major and Minor classes by helping them to understand what examiners are looking for in the written paper and how to avoid mistakes commonly made in the listening paper. Working in small groups and alone, students have been guided through a number of example questions and past papers, with model answers and marked scripts forming a key part of the weekly programme.
