How to Prepare for IELTS: 10 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow
- The Listening, Reading, and Writing Tests are usually given in that order, and are usually held on a single morning. The combined length of those three tests is 2 hours and 30 minutes. (The Speaking Test is conducted at an appointed time in the afternoon.) Only one short break is given between the Reading and Writing Tests, so you need to be at your best for a long period of time, which is why you must sleep and eat well before the test. The hints and guidelines in this article should help you achieve your "maximum speed". The more effort you put in, the faster your personal speed will be on the day.

Use TED Talks To Improve Your Business English Presentations
tags: business presentations
-
In this Ted Talk of just under 7 minutes, Christopher Emdin (An American Education Pioneer) talks about motivating teachers and changing the classroom with gusto.
While the tone seems a bit too American for an Australian context there are a number of things he does well and all of these elements translate into giving a good presentation for anyone.
1) He tells a story. I know I’ve been talking about this before, but this really is the way to engaging your audience.
2) He paints a picture. We can imagine the black church and its parishioners.
3) He uses irony. We can see the bored education student listening to the tired lecturer about engaging the audience.
4) He has passion and enthusiasm for his subject.
5) He sets the scene. “Right now, there is an aspiring teacher who is working on a 60-page paper based on some age-old education theory developed by some dead education professor…”
6) He uses repetition. “Right now, there is…”
7) He uses body language. He makes eye-contact.
8) He uses a personal pronoun. “Right now, there’s a student to come up with a way to convince his mum or dad that he’s very sick and can’t make it to school tomorrow.”
9) He has great threads too.
10) And, he uses humour.
See if you can weave some of these elements into your next presentation in English.
