Description

The IELTS Online General Training course is specifically designed to prepare students to sit the International English Language Testing System test, and consists of four subjects: Reading (IELTS110), Writing (IELTS120), Listening (IELTS130) and Speaking (IELTS140). The course focuses on language and skills for the IELTS Test, and combines interactive teaching and learning activities with practice tests, tips, and test-taking strategies. You can log into the course 24 hours a day, seven days a week and work through these subjects at your own pace. Each subject should take you approximately 25 hours to complete, for a total of approximately 100 hours for the full program.

You can complete practice tests in all four modules. This is recommended but not compulsory. Because this subject is a non-award subject, there will be no compulsory assignments to be submitted and no final exam.

Access Time: 90 days from the date you first login to the course. The course is 100% online and is accessible 24/7.

Suitable for IELTS General Training.
