Main features of Essential Listening for IELTS:
Preparation and practice material is organised into three levels: Pre-intermediate,Intermediate and Upper-intermediate. The book consists of 26 units with 52 lessons. The units in each level are based on topics which frequently appear in the real test. There are 3 sections in every lesson:
1. Pre-listening: provides you with background information about specific settings such as orientation, campus life, jobs, travel, etc. Language focus areas such as vocabulary and structure are also introduced through this section to prepare you for the actual listening activities in the next steps.
2. While listening: provides targeted practice exercises to develop test-taking andlanguage skills specific to the IELTS test. These exercises are very similar to real-test items in terms of question types and the level of difficulty. Major question types include:

Keys to all textbook and workbook exercises are also included to help you check the answers and monitor your progress.

2. Essential Speaking for IELTS

It's impossible to prepare for every question that you might get in the speaking test, but what are the essential things to prepare for?
Here's my list of essentials:
  1. Favourites: Don't go into the test without knowing what your favourites are. Prepare to talk about your favourite book, film, music, and website.
  2. People: Be ready to talk about a famous person and a member of your family.
  3. Activities: Have you prepared some ideas about a hobby? Can you describe a typical day in your life? Try to remember some special moments in your life, such as birthdays, festivals and weddings.
  4. Places: You need to be able to talk about where you live. Also, think about the places you have visited, what you did there, and why you liked or didn't like them.
  5. Things: Can you talk about the things you use every day, something you would like to buy, or a present that you received?
Remember that in part 2 you are always asked to "describe". Make sure you prepare some good adjectives for each topic, make sure you can talk about your opinions and feelings, and think about some examples or stories to make your descriptions more interesting.

The Complete Guide to the Toefl Test iBT eBook + Audio CD

English Study: The Complete Guide to the Toefl Test: iBT Edition eBook + AudioCD

File size: 1,1 gb
File type: pdf, mp3, nrg

Must-have reference source for Toefl IBT candidates: book, answer keys, 13 audio CDs and software CD-ROM with more 20 practice tests!!! Help your students achieve the best possible score on the TOEFL (R) by offering useful test-taking strategies and extensive practice for all of the new exercise types.

This is by far one of the best TOEFL test-preparation guides in print. It provides a very full and clear understanding of the different question and content types found on the TOEFL exam. It also gives numerous practice exercises that reinforce skills necessary to achieving a higher score on the TOEFL. There's a great list of idiomatic expressions for the listening section and vocbulary terms for the reading section, both with fill-in exercises, too. In addition, all of the listening, grammar, and readingexercises are wonderfully written. I have the sense that Rogers really put a lot of care into the material. The book comes with a CD which contains one practice test. There are also two practice tests at the end of the book.
