IELTS Course Outline
Overall Goal: “By working with specially designed academic skills materials and with teacher’s expert
in IELTS preparation, participants deepen their understanding of academic language and maximize their
abilities in the IELTS exam.”
The course is designed to prepare candidates for the Academic Training Module in the IELTS
examination. It is aimed at students who already hold an overall IELTS band score of 4.0-5.5 and who
wish to upgrade their score in order to gain admission to a British or American University. The course
draws upon many successful factors of our unique program, but is aimed towards those who have not yet
achieved the 6.0 -7.5 levels required. The minimum requirement for admission to the IELTS program is
an intermediate English Level. The course includes full mock IELTS examinations taken at the end of the
third and fifth weeks.
We teach students from around the world each year in our Houston/Denver offices through
private courses, small group and large group workshops. The Long IELTS course is 30 Hours in
instructional and practice time and includes 2 practice tests (6 hours). Each course teaches students the
high-score strategies for all 4 sections of the exam. We keep our classes small (no more than 6 in a class)
to make sure we are able to focus on the individual students. Classes are offered during the week and
weekend and are designed to enable a student to successfully continue their ESL program while being
prepared for IELTS success. More information is included in the brochure.
