Our IELTS preparation course aims to prepare you fully for the academic module of the exam, giving you the confidence necessary to perform well. These courses are held every month and are conveniently timed to finish before the IELTS written / speaking papers. For more details, click here.
The test is made up of four parts:
- Listening - 30 minutes
- Reading - 1 hour
- Writing - 1 hour
- Speaking - 15 minutes
IELTS is available in two formats – Academic and General Training. The Academic Reading and Writing Modules assess whether a candidate is ready to study or train in the medium of English at an undergraduate or postgraduate level. Admission to undergraduate and postgraduate courses is based on the results of these Modules.
The General Training Reading and Writing Modules are not designed to test the full range of formal language skills required for academic purposes, but emphasise basic survival skills in a broad social and educational context. General Training is suitable for candidates who are going to English speaking countries to complete their secondary education, to undertake work experience or training programmes not at degree level, or for immigration purposes to Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
Please check the entry requirements of the receiving organisation, before choosing the Academic or General Training module.
