Another thing Grace Adam,
It was a bit confusing with TOEIC as the pass marks for the A1 level are actually quite low ( I dont know if it is the same with IELTS ). So when my wife did the practice tests they seemed quite hard, but she didnt need to score very highly to get the all important A1 result. I seem to recall only 12 % required on one test and 25% on the other. If you see what I mean.
She didnt do any workshops except one day practicing papers at the test centre which was an extra charge - no real tuition.
