Preparing for your IELTS test
Whether or not you wish to sit the IELTS exam, you will find that taking our IELTS Preparation course is an excellent way to improve your English if you prefer a structured approach to learning.  We offer three concurrent courses:

English B1 – IELTS Preparation Course (Mondays – Group I)

English B1 – IELTS Preparation Course (Tuesdays – Group II)

English B2 – IELTS Preparation Course (Wednesdays)

English C1 – IELTS Preparation Course (Thursdays)

As there is a large demand for B1, there are two separate groups with classes held on Mondays and Tuesdays respectively.

Each course consists of 12 lessons over a three-month period – typically 90 minutes once a week.  The classes are conducted via Zoom and Moodle, and there is a real teacher at the helm.  With a guaranteed small class size, participants can expect to receive personalised feedback.

The lessons focus on the four key language skills, namely speaking, listening, reading and writing.

The B1 and C1 classes in our next round (August to October) are full, but you can still secure a place in the B2 class.  Please sign up by following the links on our studyFIT page.

The exam for certification is administered by the British Council, and a separate admission fee is payable to them directly. To register for your IELTS exam, please follow this link.

For specific queries pertaining to your test registration, please contact the British Council directly.


Please note that other English language certifications are available elsewhere, for example LanguageCert, ETS TOEFL and UniCert.
