'Step Up To IELTS' is the perfect choice for teachers who find most IELTS coursebooks too challenging for upper intermediate level students, with a limited amount of time to prepare for the exam. The course itself covers essential exam skills and language for Academic and General Training modules in approx. 60 hours' teaching time. Shorter, achievable exam-type tasks build students' exam skills before students try the more challenging tasks at authentic test level. The test practice sections at the end of each unit together constitute a whole sample IELTS test. This handy, pocket-sized Personal Study Book with answers accompanies the course, providing extra vocabulary, grammar and writing practice.
