Academic Intermediate & IELTS

Program Description

Academic Intermediate & IELTS Our Academic classes are a mixture of General English and exam preparation classes, with a twelve weekly assessment programme. The exam preparation classes are Academic Intermediate / IELTS I, and IELTS 2. These classes have been designed to give you the best possible result. On the first day of school (Orientation day), there is an entry test, which all new students do to help us to place you in the right class. Every class is 8 weeks long, but if you improve very quickly, you can move up to a more difficult class sooner than that. You can show us you are ready to move classes by: i. Always doing your homework well; ii. Speaking a lot of English in class; iii. Getting excellent results on your test; iv. Always attending class; v. Giving your full attention in all classes.

application information:

To Enrol at AEC: Students approach Auckland Edinburgh College (AEC), or one of AEC’s contracted agents.A full enrolment pack will be given to the student in the student’s first language where available. A student advisor or the Agent assists the student to complete the enrolment form and then submit it. If the student is under the age of 18, the student or the Agent must supply contact details of the parents and/or the designated caregivers, so AEC can establish communication arrangements with the parents or caregivers. On receipt of the completed enrolment form, AEC will issue a letter of Offer of Place which is required for a student visa application. On receipt of the full payment in the form of cash, cheque, bank draft or telegraphic transfer, AEC will issue a full payment receipt. The course is subject to start on the fourth Monday from the date of receipt. The student must notify AEC on receipt of the student visa, and confirm the start date and/or airport pickup and homestay accommodation. AEC verifies and records a copy of the student’s visa/permit upon arrival. The student needs to attend school on the first Monday with the student’s passport, 2 passport photos and local and overseas contact details. The student must complete a placement test in order to be placed into a class which is the most appropriate level to match the student’s ability.
