Stunning, Vast and Incomparable
Australia, the “land down under,” is a sunny big island country, and a continent all its own, with a wealth of
unique cultural and natural wonders to explore and experience. Come connect here with koalas, kangaroos, and
gregarious Aussies alike in "the Lucky Country" that combines world-class modern cities with amazing outdoor
escapes. With its rugged and varied landscape, people go to Australia to see the Great Barrier Reef, adventure into
the “outback” to see uluru (Ayers Rock), or to stick to the beach and enjoy surfing, sailing or kayaking.
Australia's long geological isolation makes it a perfect place to see some of the world’s most unusual wildlife.
Culture-seekers will be intrigued by Australia’s colonial and prehistoric past, and will enjoy the diverse influences
of the many adventurous immigrants who have settled in this South Pacific paradise.

The purpose of the IELTS Mastery is to prepare students for the Academic

covers all four test modules; Listening, Academic Reading, Academic Writing,
and Speaking. This course gives students the opportunity to specifically target
each macro-skill, as well as develop grammar, academic vocabulary and writing
skills in order to obtain their target IELTS band score and move on to their
academic goals either through direct entry into university or through ILSC’s
university Pathway Program.
ielts mastery leVelsThe IELTS Mastery is offered at 6 levels each designed to help student target and
achieve a specific IELTS level. All students (including current ILSC students) will be
required to take a test to determine their current IELTS level in order to be placed
in the appropriate level. Each IELTS level is offered over up to 3 course sessions
(12 weeks); students will advance to the next IELTS level after 1, 2 or 3 sessions
depending on their ability.

recognise and become familiar with the conventions, grammar and vocabulary used in academic writing.
6.0Start to develop and demonstrate the range, fluency and language control of a competent communicator.

advanced grammar and vocabulary.
