Date | Topic | Description |
Saturday, 15 March 2025 | An introduction to using the Band Descriptors | This webinar takes an in-depth look at what the public band descriptors are, before providing a few suggestions for planning your course design. We’ll look at ways to cover specific points of the descriptors through a holistic, cross-skills approach to ensure every lesson meets a specific aim for both you and your students in their development towards their target band score. |
Tuesday, 15 April 2025 | Writing Task 2: using sample answers | As usual, we will start this webinar with a brief overview of Writing Task 2 and discussion about using Public Band Descriptors. We will then go on to look at how sample and our students’ essays can be used for making our students aware of the use of extended and supported arguments, and of examples of good language. We will end with looking at how we can use these essays as skeletons for our students to build on. |
Thursday, 15 May 2025 | IELTS Academic Reading | This webinar looks at ways of harnessing learners’ existing reading skills and the application of these in the longer texts of the IELTS Reading section. The webinar also includes strategies for learners to deal with unknown vocabulary as well as a number of classroom ideas and activities for you to use in your own lessons. |
Sunday, 15 June 2025 | IELTS Speaking | The webinar will start with a discussion of the format of the test and the assessment criteria. After that, we will go through each of the 3 parts of the Speaking test looking at the challenges and suggesting some solutions.
