Syllabus Questions
How is IELTS Academic scored?
Each module, listening, reading, writing and speaking, is scored from band 0 to 9, and your overall band is the average. Your tutor targets the specific modules holding your overall band down, which is the fastest way to lift the score.
How long does IELTS preparation take?
Usually four to eight weeks of regular classes, depending on your current band and target. If your English is strong and you mainly need exam technique, it is quicker. Your tutor gives you a realistic timeline after a demo mock.
