Courses to Master English Test Vocabulary 

Do you worry if you know enough English test vocabulary for the IELTS or TOEFL exam?

Those exams require you to understand and use so much English vocabulary! It’s 25% of your IELTS writing and speaking scores, and at least as important for the reading and listening tests.  The TOEFL requires even more academic vocabulary.

A few unknown words in the test instructions or questions can leave you unsure about a whole section.

Are you wondering how you’re ever going to learn all you need for the test-- or even where to start?

English Test Vocabulary Courses Can Help You!

Professional Vocabulary in Minutes a Day

(2021-2022) I've been working on a course to help international scientists and other professionals increase their English skills, speaking clarity, and confidence. It's based on the results of my one-on-one English coaching program. See 30 Days to Better English for Professionals for more information on it and two smaller courses made from it for people who don't need the whole program.

Who these Courses Are for
(& who they're not for)

These courses are for people who understand basic English but need more vocabulary, reading, or writing skills. You might need better English communication skills for professional advancement. Maybe you're preparing for an exam like the IELTS or TOEFL. 

Have you tried to study English vocabulary on your own but not known what to focus on? These courses can help you. Do you have trouble remembering the words you learn? They can help you with that too.

If you are starting to learn English and cannot speak in full sentences or use the past tense, don't try these courses yet. Take a good beginning English course. (There are excellent free videos for beginners online. See Learn English Free for ideas.)

If you plan to take the general version of the IELTS exam (not the academic), these courses will not help you either. They concentrate on the academic vocabulary and skills needed for the TOEFL or academic IELTS exam.

If you are looking for an easy way to learn thousands of words in a few weeks, you'll be disappointed. (I'd love to hear if you find a way to do that!)

If you want strategies to help you understand, use, and remember important academic vocabulary, these courses ARE for you. Get guidance on where to start, sources of reading materials, and lots of practice in context.

Sign up now for the free introductory course. There is no obligation to take any other courses, but you can get a discount if you decide to later.
