IELTS Test. My name is Iain Mathieson, and I am Director of Studies for English Language Programs here at The University of Queensland. We are an IELTS preparation and t esting centre and one of the world's leading centres of learning. IELTSx has been designed and written by our English language teaching experts he re at the University. The course is divided into 4 modules: Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing. You will be guided through each module by our team of course writers: Martin, Ph ilippa, Megan and Stephen. Each module includes engaging video and audio presentations that cover key test-taking skills, strategies and techniques. You will also have the opportunity to complete a wide variety of IELTS-style exercises and activities. These will provide you with the focused practice that you need to perform at your best. As the course is self-paced, you can complete all of the course units in sequenc e, or just select the areas you want to focus on. Then, when you're ready, you can test you rself with an IELTS-style practice test. There is one practice test for each skill. In completing the IELTSx course, you will feel prepared to take the IELTS Academ ic Test with confidence. We hope that IELTSx will help you to unlock the door to university study. So, let's begin by choosing any module as your sta rting point.
