KEY POINTS

WHY STUDY IELTS?

IELTS is a very useful English language certificate to have and you can take the exam twice a month, only a 5-minute walk from Inforum Education. If you achieve the correct score, you can use this as evidence of your English language ability to gain entry to any university in Australia and many universities in Europe, the UK and North America.

IELTS is especially useful if you’d like to study further in Australia, at a university, TAFE or other VET program, or even to migrate to Australia in the future.

THE INFORUM APPROACH TO IELTS

There is a strong focus on advanced reading and writing skills, such as skimming and scanning texts, labelling diagrams and composing essays under exam conditions.

At Inforum we focus on the twin paths of improving your English language skills plus your exam taking skills, both of which are crucial to success.
