This is a paper about IELTS teaching, exploring how to help your students in their IELTS exam Writien by Dr.Karimi , an English teacher, IELTS teacher trainer and IELTS materials developer with nearly 20 years’ experience.
As with most things in life, the key factor of an intensive IELTS course is in the preparation. If you have a clear idea of what you and your students need to do from the outset then you are far more likely to help your students achieve their goals than if you have no a well-devised lesson plan . Likewise, as the expression goes, first impressions last, so if you can impress your students in the first sessions, then they are more likely to trust you for the rest of the course.
It is important to have as much information at your disposal as possible before the course actually starts. This will help you to prepare properly and show your students that you really do know what you are teaching.
