IELTS Classroom Rules, Expectations, and Practice Guide

Status: Enrolled & Ready

Welcome to Your IELTS Training.
Let's Get That Band 8.

Congratulations on registering! You have taken the first concrete step toward your study abroad dream. This guide explains how our classes work, what we expect from you, and how to maximize your score.

⚠️ The Reality Check

IELTS is not a test of intelligence; it is a test of technique. You cannot "cram" for it the night before. Consistency is the only magic trick. If you attend classes but don't practice at home, your score will not improve.

How Our Training Works: The 4 Modules

🎧 Listening (30 Mins)

Our Goal: Train your ear to catch accents (British/Australian) and multitask (listen + read + write simultaneously).

Tip: Watch BBC News or TED Talks daily without subtitles.

📖 Reading (60 Mins)

Our Goal: Speed. We teach you "Skimming" and "Scanning" techniques so you don't waste time reading every single word.

Tip: Read one lengthy editorial (The Hindu/The Guardian) every morning.

✍️ Writing (60 Mins)

Our Goal: Structure. We provide standard templates for Task 1 (Graph/Letter) and Task 2 (Essay) to ensure logical flow.

Tip: Never deviate from the word limit. Under-length = Penalty.

🗣️ Speaking (11-14 Mins)

Our Goal: Fluency over Vocabulary. We conduct 1-on-1 mock interviews to remove hesitation and "umm/ahh" fillers.

Tip: Record yourself speaking on a topic for 2 minutes daily.

Your "Student Toolkit": What to Bring

  • ✔ Stationery: Pencils (HB), Eraser, and a Sharpener. (Listening/Reading must be done in pencil).
  • ✔ Notebook: A dedicated notebook for "New Vocabulary." Write 5 new words every day.
  • ✔ Headphones: For personal listening practice in the lab.

The Mock Test Schedule

We simulate the real exam environment every Saturday. These are not optional.

Attendance & House Rules

  1. Be on Time: If you miss the start of the Listening audio, you cannot join the session.
  2. English Only Zone: Inside the classroom, speak only in English. Even with your friends. This is the fastest way to improve.
  3. Homework: Writing tasks given on Monday must be submitted by Tuesday for correction.
