Individual preparation, not a group course
In a group IELTS course, the teacher has to divide their attention between many students. With individual tuition, we can concentrate on your examination, your target and your weaknesses.
If your Speaking is already strong but your Writing is holding you back, we can spend more time on Writing. If you're losing marks because of grammar, vocabulary or exam technique, we can focus on those areas instead.
Your lessons can include Writing and Speaking feedback, Reading and Listening strategies, grammar and vocabulary development, exam technique and targeted practice, in whatever balance gets you to your target band.
What we work on
All four papers, with the emphasis on the ones costing you marks.
Speaking
Practice for all three parts of the Speaking test, with correction and feedback on fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar.
Reading
Strategies for each question type, managing your time, and understanding why you're losing marks on particular questions.
Listening
Techniques for following the recording, predicting answers, and avoiding the common traps in each section.
Grammar and vocabulary
Targeted work on the errors and gaps that limit your band score across all four papers.
Exam technique
Understanding exactly how IELTS is marked and what examiners are looking for, so your effort goes where it counts.
Standard 8-week IELTS programme
For most students preparing seriously for IELTS, two lessons per week provides the best balance between guided preparation and independent study.
The programme starts with an assessment of your current level against your target band, followed by a personalised preparation plan. Over the eight weeks we work through the areas in that plan, with regular Speaking feedback, weekly Writing feedback and progress checks, finishing with a final review before your exam date.
If you'd rather book individual lessons, or need a shorter or longer period of preparation, we can arrange that at £35 per hour.
