General Introduction

This book has 3 sections. Section 1 is ‘The IELTS Descriptors Decoded’, a book giving a basic idea about what is needed to achieve various IELTS Speaking and Writing band scores.

Also in Section 1 there are my top twelve tips for the speaking and writing tests’. These are a little ‘old and simple’ but many candidates still find them useful.

Section 2 is a showcase of my other books, both for IELTS candidates and for general students of English as a foreign language. Simply click on the links provided to go to websites where you can buy the books.

Section 3 contains some Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 questions for the speaking test, with suggestions on how to answer them, and some sample questions and model answers for the writing test – Task 1 and Task 2, academic and general training.

At the end of the book there are links so that you can find me online.
