    • Giving Opinions: Then you'll produce a report to provide information based on the main aspects of these illustrations.
  • Coherence and cohesion

    This is a test of your capacity for logical and concise argumentation. Or, to put it another way, the IELTS exam aims to ensure that your concepts make sense in the order that you express them and that they connect logically.

  • Lexical resource

    Lexical resource can be compared to grammatical range and accuracy. Here, IELTS examiners are seeking a broad range of vocabulary that has been used correctly. We assist our students as they work to expand their vocabulary using a variety of resource materials provided during the course.

  • Grammatical range and accuracy

    Grammatical Range and Accuracy makes up 25% of your score on the official IELTS scale. Your grammar should be diverse first and foremost. For instance, it's crucial to blend basic and complex statements together rather than use only simple ones. Next, we make sure your grammar is correct and free of grammatical mistakes.

Great news! There are no entry requirements or age restrictions for the course. All you need is access to a computer or tablet and a good internet connection. Moreover, our course duration is 4 months but we accept enrolments anytime throughout the year.

IELTS scoring is rather simple to comprehend. The results are shown in 9 bands, with values ranging from 1 to 9. With the exception of a few isolated words, an individual who receives a score of 1 on the IELTS has no capacity to use the English language. A test taker who has a score of 9 is considered to be an experienced English language user.

Each of the 4 portions of the exam will yield a band score for test-takers. Based on the predetermined criteria, each part is awarded a unique score. The Listening and Reading sections of the exam are graded based on how many of the 40 questions a test taker correctly answers. The Writing and Speaking portions, on the other hand, are graded by test administrators using their own standards.
