IELTS Preparation Course at Private Mentorship
​
Course Description: At Private Mentorship, I offer an exceptional IELTS Preparation Course, uniquely designed to enhance students' English language proficiency and equip them with the skills necessary to excel in the IELTS exam with one on one private sessions. My course comprises two fundamental components:
​
-
Improving English Skills: My first focus is on strengthening students' English skills. Participants engage in various language development activities, including vocabulary building, critical listening and reading, essay writing, and speaking practice. This foundation ensures that students have a strong grasp of the English language.
-
Building Test-Taking Skills: The second part of the course is dedicated to cultivating effective test-taking skills and strategies. To track progress and enhance test-taking stamina, students take weekly IELTS mock exams. This helps me closely monitor your development.

Our curriculum covers a wide range of topics. Mornings are dedicated to grammar, while afternoons focus on improving listening and speaking skills. This comprehensive approach ensures that students are well-rounded in all aspects of English language proficiency.
