Preparations for IELTS Pathway at Beijing University of Agriculture (BUA) have taken another step forward, with James Foster visiting the university to train organisation administrator Li Ning and teacher Lou Laoshi ahead of the planned launch on Monday.
The visit follows our 7 August announcement of the planned September launch and marks a welcome opportunity to work directly with the BUA team as they prepare to introduce students to the programme.
IELTS Pathway brings structured preparation together with supportive learning tools, including AI-assisted feedback. The aim is to help students build confidence and understand their next steps, while keeping teachers at the heart of the learning experience.
We’re excited that EduZMS will be helping students at Beijing University of Agriculture take the next steps in their English learning. It’s a pleasure to work with such a forward-thinking team. Used thoughtfully, AI can offer another layer of encouragement and support alongside great teaching, and we’re looking forward to seeing the programme get under way. — James Foster, EduZMS
BUA’s openness to new approaches to student support is an encouraging foundation for the programme. With staff training completed, the focus now turns to welcoming students and supporting a positive start to their IELTS Pathway journey.
