Review of Collins Speaking for IELTS (2011) 'The organization seems simple and clear... helpful both to the class teacher or student using it for self study ... appropriate selection of topics ... Good balance of practice, exemplification and exam advice (tips, technique). I particularly liked some of the tips on preparation - e.g. P. 17 Task 6 or p. 39 Exam technique.' John Palfery, Teacher at English Language Teaching centre, University of Edinburgh, September 2011 Review of Collins Listening for IELTS (2011) This book will help you to recognize and understand differences in pronunciation and vocabulary. It includes a CD covering a number of business topics, spoken by both native and non-native speakers of English. Business Spotlight, October 2011
