IELTS Resource Pack

Photocopiable resource book for all teachers of IELTS preparation classes
Jon Marks
Preparing classes for the IELTS exam can become a gruelling cycle of exam practice and intensive language analysis. Communication games and activities may be available, but with the exam approaching, it can seem inappropriate to spend time on anything not directly relevant to the exam. The 25 lively games and activities in this book aim to help with this dilemma. They are fun, motivating, and in many cases kinaesthetic (i.e. students use their bodies as well as their minds), yet they all relate directly to the exam. IELTS Resource Pack provides teachers with valuable resource material to liven up their IELTS preparation classes and help ensure success for their students!
Also included is a:  Bank of legally photocopiable exam practice material  Audio CD of listening material
