IELTS Academic Reading and Listening Achieve Band 9

There are two courses: one course is designed for students who have received IELTS scores in the intermediate range; the other course is for students who have received scores in the advanced range. Placement in an IELTS course will be based on students’ previous IELTS score or successful completion of Level 6 in Boston Global Institute’s Academic Preparation Program. Students who have not previously taken the IELTS will be required to take a practice IELTS test and their score on the practice test will determine their placement into one of the two courses. The goal of the IELTS test preparation courses is to improve students’ English language skills, familiarize them with the types of speaking, listening, reading and writing tasks they will be required to perform on the IELTS test, and provide intensive practice in relevant test-taking strategies, so that students will be able to increase their IELTS score by .5.
