IELTS Correspondence
This course consists of 10 written exam papers (5 task 1 &
5 task 2 questions) and is available for both Academic and General
Modules. The course covers a variety of question types, e.g. graphs,
tables, diagrams; formal, informal letters; stating opinion, giving
reasons; providing solutions.
The procedure is:
・ we email, post or fax you the first exam questions (one task 1
& one task 2)
・ you complete them and send them back by post or fax
・ your teacher corrects them and also writes suggestions on how
to improve your writing
・ we email, post or fax the corrected papers, your teacher's comments,
model answers, and your next assignment within 48 hours (excluding
weekends).
・ The above process is repeated for the remaining 4 papers.
There is no time limit for you to return your answers, only for
us to return our corrections, so you can arrange your practice to
suit your schedule.
Course Fee: ￥30,000 (no additional charges for postage, materials,
registration, etc.).
