Admissions
IELTS for university applicants.
Structured preparation for the four IELTS skills, calibrated to a Band 6.5 or higher target for UK university offers. Writing remains the section that determines whether candidates clear their offer band.
What we teach
The IELTS for University Applicants syllabus, in full.
Writing Task 1 and Task 2.
Task 1 (academic): summarising visual information. Task 2 (essay): structured argumentation. The two sections that most often pull a student's overall band down.
Reading.
Three passage types, time management, the question types that catch most candidates out (matching headings, true / false / not given). Strategy as much as comprehension.
Listening.
Section-by-section preparation. Note-taking, prediction skills, and the precise spelling and grammar that examiners reward.
Speaking.
Mock speaking-test simulation with feedback against the four band descriptors: fluency and coherence, lexical resource, grammatical range and accuracy, pronunciation.
