IELTS Target 5.0 addresses the needs of students who are entering IELTS study between Band 3 (extremely limited user) and Band 4 (limited user).

IELTS Target 5.0 acknowledges the very special requirements of such students and focuses on guidance, scaffolding, and analysis of typical errors. Model answers are used frequently to provide guidance, and tasks have been devised to focus attention on the content of good and poor model answers.

Vocabulary has been carefully selected to focus on items that are core to IELTS and essential for use at the level.
