IELTS Preparation

The Lewis School has a strong history in providing IELTS preparation courses, with many previous students following degree courses in Southampton and other UK cities. Our IELTS course focuses entirely on the skills and language you will need to succeed in the IELTS Academic test, enabling you to make rapid progress.

Exams are taken locally, shortly before or after the course ends. Demand for exams is high and you are advised to book your exam early to avoid disappointment. You can book your exam through the school in the early part of your course.
