I have been living in Australia for the last three years after clearing the immigration process. Yes, I gave one of the toughest examination, the IELTS or International English Language Testing System and scored well which entitled me not just in migrating but land in a respectable job. Some people will find IELTS classes in Sydney the best way to score high while others may want to prepare themselves. As for me, I was working when I first made up my mind to settle outside and so attending classes were out of the syllabus. I had prepared all by myself and got a respectable 8 in the IELTS.
What did it take for me to compete in the test?
Getting good grades is all about your knowledge of English, dedication and time-bound studies. Before starting on anything, the first task is to have an insight into what all goes in the test. The British Council and IDP list outs everything about the test like the process, registration and additional information which the appearing candidates must know.
To start with, it is advisable to give a preliminary online mock test to get an insight into your position and where do you need to give your maximum effort. These mock tests aim specifically at individual sections which are reading, writing, listening and speaking. By appearing for the individual sections, you will confront with your lags.
There are some specific ways to master individual sections. For the listening section, it is a good habit to listen to international English channels of news and songs to distinguish between different accents. You can also surf through various listening videos available online specifically meant for IELTS classes and prepare in your Sydney home. Similarly, one can find materials for writing, reading and speaking from authentic sources and available publication by Cambridge tests series.
