About the Program
Freshman IELTS Program re-envisions exam preparation helping you elevate your score and setting the academic ground for your future undergraduate studies.
The course treats the IELTS sections—Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing—as inseparable language skills that you will explore in unison.
As such, the program will heavily rely on covering non-IELTS books, movies, and other materials to spur peer discussion and write extensive reflections.
