IELTS course
Course Description
Studying Biology in English, meeting overseas colleagues, presenting at the conferences, or publishing requires using scientific English expressions. However, in day-to-day life situations, we just talk about anything and everything. IELTS (International English Language Testing System) can prepare you to be fluent in both parts.
Course format:
There are two modules Academic and General Training. At TMU, we will study the Academic IELTS. The test requires you to listen to English speakers discussing science-related topics, reading popular scientific articles, writing in academic mode, and speaking about life. The introductory seminar will be scheduled in May 5/21 and 5/28. That day we will meet online, and I will explain the essential parts of the exam and how to study for the test. After that, the sessions will be conducted online face-to-face with the teacher for speaking and writing, and as group sessions for listening and reading. Also, you will be invited to study in small groups and by yourself using the materials available in the English Art Laboratory (8-324) and online.
Class schedule:
Most of the private sessions will be by appointment, and the announcements will be made for the group sessions. The details will be explained in the inaugural lecture.
