IELTS Exam Preparation Course

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is an examination jointly assessed and run by Cambridge ESOL, the British Council & IELTS Australia: IDP Australia. Candidates are tested in Listening, Reading, Writing & Speaking. At CGC we offer a 3-6 months course that fully prepares students for this exam.
Aims
The IELTS course at CGC aims to allow students to:
  • become familiar with the format of the IELTS exam
  • improve their exam technique
  • practise the kind of questions they will have to answer in the exams
  • take practice exam papers
  • receive constructive feedback to increase their chances of success
Course Design
  • A course book is used every day in class. It is very important for students to buy this course book as it provides the basis of the course.
  • The course books chosen for this course are always focussed on the IELTS exam.
  • There is regular exam practice. This may take the form of one whole paper from the exam or a sample of questions.
 


  "The combination of English language learning and exam techniques is a winning one and I know that I can get all the support and advice I need from the staff."

  • Supplementary materials are also used to add variety and consolidate the course book-based work.
  • Teachers often set homework for this course. Students are expected to complete all homework assignments. The IELTS exam are challenging and students must be prepared to devote plenty of time to private study if they wish to achieve their target score.
  • Every week there is revision of the work done in the previous week. As we operate a continuous enrolment system, new students join the class all of the time. By revising functions, tenses and lexis, new students are not left behind. We also believe that revision and reinforcement are necessary learning tools.
Who is the IELTS course for?

Foreign students who wish to study at a British university usually need to attain an IELTS score before they are accepted onto the course. Some professional organisations in the UK also require foreign practitioners whose first language is not English to achieve an IELTS score. For full details, please visit the IELTS website.
When can I take the examination?

Students can take the IELTS exam in London any month. Applications must usually be made one month in advance and cost £88. CGC can help students book a place at an exam centre. Results usually arrive approximately two weeks after the exam is taken.
