Get advice from the IELTS experts


Are you wondering what skills you need for success in the IELTS Academic test? Maybe you want to know how IELTS examiners assess your level, or how to improve your band score? This course will help you find the answers, understand how to study for the test, and develop your academic English skills.


You’ll interact with experts and learners around the world. You’ll also have the chance to try authentic IELTS practice tasks and learn what skills they’re testing and how they’re marked.


IELTS is jointly owned by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge Assessment English.


This course is for anyone who wants to improve their IELTS score. It is especially useful for people who want to take IELTS Academic and go to university.


We have tried to use simple English in the course as much as possible, but we recommend your English is at least level B1 (around IELTS band 4.5 or higher) to take the course.


The course is aimed at people preparing for the IELTS Academic test. If you are preparing for IELTS General Training, you will find that some of this course is useful for you, but not all. Of course, you are welcome to join. Speaking and Listening are the same in Academic and General Training, but Reading and Writing are different.


Certificate cost may vary. You will be redirected to the host page for cost and payment options.
