There is no doubt that consistent practice only makes difference in IELTS. We at Anne's IELTS academy, conduct Listening, Writing and Speaking module everyday so that students do not get delinked to their speaking performance. We boast to be the only institute in the town to have three modules a day in each batch.
Reading papers are given to students to carry and complete at home so as to solve their problem areas next day when they come in the class. This saves their time in the class and maximum benefit from the faculties they get.
In the Writing module each writing topic is discussed in the class before the students start writing about the same. Not just that, our faculties too write on the board so that the students get idea of how to write and what to write.
