Praise for Vocabulary for IELTS:
Hurrah! All the famous IELTS topics are there: ‘Education’, ‘Health’, as well as topics about ‘Gadgets’ and ‘The Art of Persuasion’. After a mid-course revision unit, the second half of the title moves to a ‘Words for...’ format which highlights important functions like describing change and using emphasis. This is a great idea as not everyone wants a theme-focused resource. What’s more, it demonstrates superbly how these functions appear in the IELTS test. It helps students not only do the productive side but also comprehend the receptive parts. Well done Collins!

Praise for Get Ready for IELTS: Reading:
Get Ready for IELTS: Reading (...) is what we have all been waiting for, as many students who need to achieve a good IELTS score embark on the course with a low level of English.
I would definitely recommend this book as a confidence-booster and a chance to gain a wider knowledge of the vocabulary and synonyms needed for the IELTS examination. It is a lifeline for both, teachers and students.
