IELTS - The International English Language Testing System
We constantly prepare students for the Cambridge IELTS. There is an IELTS Options available almost all year round at TIS and you can join this option as part of the General English Options Course at almost any time. IELTS is accepted by almost all British, Australian, Canadian and New Zealand colleges and universities. It is also increasingly recognised in North American academic institutions as well as many professional organisations such as the UK General Medical Council and the UK Ministry of Defence. Exams are held locally every month - please see the table to the right for dates and locations.
Grades are banded on a scale of 1-9 and the majority of universities are looking for at least 6/7 for entry to a degree programme. Foundation courses require a lower grade of at least 4.5. Enrolment should be made on the General English Plus Options - IELTS. IELTS is recommended for long stay students intending to go on to further and higher education in English speaking countries.
IELTS Test Fee – approximately £135 for 2012.

Small Classes for Exam Courses
Students sometimes ask us what happens if there are very small classes. We always guarantee to run the full-time 23 hour course if there are 3 students or more enrolled on the course. If there are only 1 or 2 candidates then you will be in a General English class at your level for 18 hours per week and for the remaining 5 hours you will have a very intensive 1-1 or 2-1 class. These private sessions will be exclusively devoted to exam preparation and you will find this method is very successful.
If you would like more information about preparation for any of the above examinations and tests then write to study@tisenglish.co.uk TOEIC, FCE, CAE and CPE are all taken in Torquay. Depending on the exam date IELTS is taken in Torquay, Plymouth or Exeter.
Nota Bene: we do not close on public holidays – classes as usual. Students on examination courses will get their full tuition hours every week including Easter Friday and Easter Monday and the May bank holidays.
