Grammar for IELTS®

Although the official IELTS® Exam does not have a specific Grammar component, students preparing for the IELTS® and other standardized exams (such as the TOEFL, GMAT, or GRE) welcome the opportunity to focus specifically on advanced Grammar points presented in the challenging and dense IELTS® style. In class, students receive an in-depth skill review of grammatical structures, learn advanced grammar forms, acquire test-taking techniques, and take practice exams. The skills learned will greatly improve reading, writing, speaking and listening skills, and also serves as an excellent review of all grammar topics.
