The IELTS exam preparation course is for students who want to take the IELTS examination to go to university or for entry onto more vocational training (such as medical training) in the UK. The course is aimed at students taking the Academic IELTS, but candidates for the General Training IELTS exam can also take the course and will be given individual help on General Training skills. Suitable for: Most students are aged between 22 and 30, although we have a full range of ages in each class and anyone aged 16 or above is welcome. Each class has a good mix of nationalities to encourage a lively exchange of cultures and experience. Most students who take the IELTS exam do so because they want to study at a UK university.This means that the students in each class support each other in their application process and the teacher will also help and give advice.

Reviews
Course programme
The course covers the exam techniques needed to be successful at IELTS by focussing on key exam skills for each of the four sections tested: reading, writing, speaking and listening.
Teachers
The exam preparation course teachers are all experienced and trained in this area of English tuition.
They will be TEFL/CELTA qualified and will also have previous experience in preparing students for the IELTS exam.
Tutor Support
Your teacher will offer individual support and guidance throughout the course.
The teacher will also help you and give advice on making an application to a UK university.
Practice Test
Throughout the course you will be expected to complete practice tests, which will make up the majority of your homework. You will need to make sure you allow time to complete this self-study and find a suitable location where you will not be disturbed or distracted.
There are self-study areas allocated throughout the day at both LITE College and LITE Wimbledon, which you are welcome to use.
Books
You will not be expected to buy a book for the course since the teacher provides all materials.
The materials used throughout the course are taken from a wide variety of sources including Focus on IELTS, Insight Into IELTS, Prepare For IELTS, IELTS Testbuilder and IELTS past examination papers.
The materials will have been chosen because they offer excellent guidance for students on how to approach the IELTS exam.
Examinations
You can take the IELTS examination at any time during the year. The busiest time is in the summer, so you may have to wait a little longer to get a place than at other times of the year.
Normally you should wait no longer than two to three weeks between booking the examination and actually going to sit it.
You will receive your Test Report Form (results) around two to four weeks after you have sat the exam.
You can register for your IELTS examination at reception.
There are several test centres in and around London.
