The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) –
IELTS is a test that measures the language proficiency of people who want to study or work in environments where English is used as a language of communication. It is managed by the British Council, IELTS Australia and Cambridge English Language Assessment. It was established in 1989.
IELTS A&G –
IELTS is available in two test formats – Academic or General Training and provides an assessment of the four language skills: listening, reading, writing and speaking. The difference between the Academic and General Training versions is the content. All other features- time limits, responses length and scores are the same.
Academic Course –
Academic tests are more focused on the academic side of the language. Students enrolled in our academic classes are expected to have a good understanding of the grammar and vocabulary. The course does not consist any time on the basic knowledge side, but goes straight into the more advanced techniques within a couple of classes.
General Course –
General training students do not possess the same skill as those in academic class. They usually have a very basic English understanding, which makes the course much longer and start with a much simpler foundation class.
