  • Instead of studying grammar at the verb tense level, a much more powerful method is mastering the different complex sentence forms. This will improve not just writing and speaking, but also reading and listening because your brain will easily understand how ideas in long sentences are connected to each other.
  • The concepts listed above are the critical concepts you MUST master for the IELTS exam. However, the course includes additional modules that cover 21 complex sentence structures in total.
