IELTS Classroom Training

IELTS i.e International English Language Testing System, is an international standardised test of English language skills for non-native speakers, designed to test language proficiency for academic, professional and living purposes in English-speaking countries. It assesses the skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking. IELTS is accepted by most academic institutions in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the UK, by over 3,000 in the USA, and by various professional organizations across the world. It has two modules – Academic, for study abroad purposes and General Training, for professional purposes. In order to hone these skills and ace the test, several find it useful to attend an IELTS classroom coaching centre – if you’re looking to attend one too, our students will attest to the quality of our programme for IELTS classroom training in Bangalore.

  • Based on these readings you will be asked comprehension-based questions, to test your ability to read and comprehend English.
  • Academic reading

  • It includes longer texts, which range from the descriptive and factual to the discursive and analytical. The readings will not require discipline-specific specialization.
  • Based on these readings you will be asked similarly comprehension-based questions, designed to test candidates’ ability to read and comprehend English for academic purposes.

    General writing : Involves tasks designed to test your communication skills via writing.

  • Speaking

    The test follows the same format for both General Training and Academic.
    You will be asked a series of questions by an examiner. The module is designed to test your ability to communicate in English with clarity and fluency.

  • The test begins with general questions about yourself and a range of familiar topics, such as home, family, work, studies and interests. (4 – 5 minutes)
  • You will be given a topic. You will be given one minute to prepare. You will then have to speak about the topic for 1-2 minutes. The examiner will then ask one or two questions about the same. (4 – 5 minutes)
  • You will answer further questions connected to the topic in Part 2. These questions will give you the opportunity to discuss more abstract ideas and issues. (4 – 5 minutes)
