The IELTS READING is the second paper of the IELTS test; as you will see in the video, there are three texts in total, and one of the problems students normally come across with is time management as one hour seems to be too short to complete all the tasks required in the test. As with all parts in the IELTS, it is all about technique. Although it may sound strange, the text is not the most important part of the READING PAPER because it is the questions you need to focus on. The questions contain keywords, synonyms, clues, the grammar needed to understand a sentence, the vocabulary that gives you clues to the answer; reading the text and then focusing on the questions is a common mistake that can easily be fixed.

If you watch my videos, you will see the I have broken down the different questions of the IELTS READING paper according to the different type of question. If you are struggling with the IELRS READING paper, I am here to help you. In the IELTS READING COURSE, I will teach you how to manage time well, how many minutes you should spend on reading the questions that will lead you to the right section of the reading text and how to organise the different techniques to tackle the questions, so that when you get to the exam, you know exactly what you are doing and you won’t panic or be discouraged.

Basically, a ROADMAP TO SUCCESS!
