Preparing for IELTS on your own can feel overwhelming. What do the examiners want? Which strategies actually work? How is the test scored?

In this course, Teacher Karen, who taught IELTS and TOEFL preparation at a US university for 14 years, guides you through all four parts of the IELTS test, step by step. Each module explains what you will face on test day, teaches proven strategies, and gives you practice that works just like the real exam, with clear feedback on the traps that catch most candidates.

Watch on any device, at your own pace, as many times as you like.
