From Simone Braverman

Dear IELTS test taker,

I am glad that you made it here. This website will help you prepare for the IELTS test by yourself. Yes, you can actually do it, and I am a living proof to that.

This blog is something I desperately needed while studying for my IELTS exam. I hope that it will make your life a lot easier by supplying you with tips, links and advice, all put together in one place. You will learn here about the problems I had, preparing for the IELTS exam, and perhaps that will keep you from repeating my mistakes.

English is not my first language. That’s why I had to take the IELTS test, just like you have to. When I started to search for information online, it took me a very long time until I managed to find, compare and test on myself different techniques and tips. I made every mistake I could make because I just couldn’t find any friendly help on my level.

To tell you the truth, many other IELTS websites looked a bit scary and full of words I only partially understood. The problem with all the books and courses I tried was, that they were written by native English speakers – that’s why they have no idea about the difficulties that people experience if they weren’t born into English.

This was the reason why I wrote 2 IELTS preparation books, “Ace the IELTS” for General Training and “Target Band 7” for the Academic Module, which have been helping many students to achieve great results in their IELTS exams.

My IELTS test was a success and my dream became a reality. But even now, a long time after my IELTS preparation was over, I haven’t forgotten all the problems and difficulties I once had. In fact, I re-live them through every student who turns to me, seeking help, and I use the knowledge I gathered and techniques I developed to prepare those students for the IELTS exam.

We invite you to come and study with us. The whole idea of IELTS-blog is to remind you that you’re not alone, to share knowledge and experience and to help one another improve our English.
