• Speaking: it’s difficult to have a
conversation alone (Unless you are
crazy)
• Writing: most students need a lot of
practice in this area
Our main focus in class
![Page 11: Pre-ILETS with Terry Williams Welcome. 1.Develop your understanding of the IELTS exam structure and its parts 2.Develop your understanding of the IELTS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfd41a28abf838cac918/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
We will also practice these areas in class, BUT…
• It’s much easier to work on these skills
alone, so most of your practice should
be at home.
• We will focus on repeating a small
number of the most useful techniques.
What about reading and listening?
![Page 12: Pre-ILETS with Terry Williams Welcome. 1.Develop your understanding of the IELTS exam structure and its parts 2.Develop your understanding of the IELTS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfd41a28abf838cac918/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• In class, we introduce you to IELTS
information and techniques.
• You will need to practice everything
many, many times at home to really
learn.
Repeat, repeat, repeat…
