Our IELTS Academic preparation course utilises the latest IELTS materials and is ideal for students planning to study overseas or wishing to take an IELTS examination to gain international accreditation for their skills. The course is offered at Advanced level (bands 6.0 - 7.0) and coaches students through the essential steps and format required to achieve the respective band score.

It is recommended that students start to prepare at least one year before they plan to take the examination and dedicate a minimum of 50 to 60 hours to their IELTS studies.

The IELTS examination tests a candidate’s English language proficiency in all four language skills - listening, reading, writing and speaking. Scores awarded range between 0 and 9.0 and most universities with English as the medium of instruction accept scores between 6.0 and 7.0 as the entry requirement for undergraduate studies.

The British Council currently provides online IELTS examinations in Macao. Test dates are subject to availability.
