Before you start
We show you the format of the IELTS exam and the technique to answer each question, so nothing in the test room is a surprise.
It is important you are at the correct proficiency level before attempting IELTS. Our placement check takes ten minutes and gives you an instant result.
Find out your levelWhy students choose us
Get the result you need, whether it is for your career, a work pass or overseas studies. We agree a target band with you before you start.
We cover all four components of the IELTS Singapore exam — Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking — and spend time on your weak areas.
High quality does not have to be expensive. Small group classes of eight people or fewer mean more attention from your teacher.
All four components
Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking are taught together, then drilled one by one. We spend the extra time on the component that is holding your band back.
30 minutes · 4 sections · 40 questions
You hear the recording once. We train you to read ahead and predict answers before the audio starts.
60 minutes · 3 passages · 40 questions
Time is the real test here. You learn a repeatable routine for each question type, so you stop re-reading the passage.
60 minutes · Task 1 + Task 2
Every essay you write is marked against the official band descriptors, with corrections you can act on before the next lesson.
11–14 minutes · 3 parts
You practise with a teacher, not an app. Recorded mock interviews show you exactly where fluency breaks down.
How it works
Take our free placement check first. It is important you are at the right proficiency level before attempting IELTS — we will tell you honestly if a term of general English comes first.
Talk to us on WhatsApp or at United House. We look at where you are, where you need to be, and your exam date, then plan the number of terms.
Choose a weekday evening or weekend slot. Classes are capped at eight students, with a published fee and no add-ons.
Enjoy the journey and try not to focus too much on the destination. Unlimited mock exams and teacher feedback keep your progress visible.
Start with the level check. If you already know your band, message us and we will plan the terms you need.
