IELTS Step-by-step Mastering Speaking & Writing

From ex-IELTS examiner James Castleden's YouTube channel IELTS Step-by-step comes a course dedicated to improving your speaking and writing skills, your confidence, and your time management in the IELTS Speaking & Writing exam. Together, you and James will listen, review and practice 12 IELTS Speaking exams done by students from the major language groups around the world, and, for the writing, complete 18 essays, 8 Task-1 reports (or, if you're doing General Training, 11 letters) and then review them in detail.

You'll learn and practice hundreds of idioms that are particularly useful in the Speaking exam, as well as useful tips on how to answer typical questions in the exam. On top of that, you'll also learn tips, tricks, skills and techniques that will significantly improve your IELTS Writing grade in numerous automatically-graded exercises as well as through Self Assessment tasks which can be discussed on the IELTS Step-by-step Community page on Facebook.

So what are you waiting for? Get that 7+ in Speaking & Writing you deserve!

★★★★★ "Holy! This course is the best of all writing courses. I'd enrolled then studied for only 2 days without any essay writing experience. I only studied section 2-4(first day) & 9-12(second day), which were not all he taught, and I got 6.5. If I had studied everything he taught, I could have got 7 or above!!! ps thank you James :)"—TW

• ABOUT ME •

I have a masters degree in Applied Linguistics from the University of Leicester in the UK, and a Diploma in English Language Teaching to Adults (DELTA) from Cambridge University. I've been teaching for over 20 years, the last 10 of which have been predominantly focussed on teaching the IELTS exam. When I was an IELTS examiner, I was fortunate to have access to important aspects of the exam that many teachers and candidates are not aware of — these I can reveal to you in my courses.
