🌍 IELTS Preparation

Prepare IELTS, aim for band 7+

A diagnostic comes first. Moving one level takes 2 months of regular work: B1 to B2, then B2 to C1. Band 7+ and C1 are the aim for an MBA, a master's or a PhD. Not everyone reaches C1 in 2 months. TOEIC and the Duolingo English Test can come afterwards. Liwaza prepares IELTS and TOEFL.
