The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is an internationally recognized English Language certificate which certifies your ability to study or work in Greece and abroad. The exam consists of four sections (Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking) and differs from other Lower or Proficiency exams as it examines language use without focusing on grammar and syntax. For this reason and taking into account the needs of Greek students, LinguaTerra has developed a targeted methodology, placing more emphasis on speaking and writing so that you can be properly prepared and achieve the score that will be your passport to the University of your choice.
In LinguaTerra we start with a free placement test. Based on the score and the aim, we recommend one of the following programmes:
α) Standard (5 weeks / 25 hours)
b) Premium (10 weeks / 50 hours)
c) Premium Plus (15 weeks / 75 hours)
LinguaTerra offers students who wish to improve their writing, the option of a package specially designed for this purpose. It is an asynchronous course, without live sessions, and includes feedback and improvement practices in 5 tests (Part 1 and Part 2).
IELTS Academic has a total of 4 sections.
The total duration of the test is approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes. There are two types of exams: paper-based and computer-based. Speaking in both cases is examined with a one-on-one personal interview.
The final score is on a scale of 0 – 9, valid for 2 years. The results are communicated to you 2 weeks after the day of the exam (paper-based IELTS).
