Read Once, Read Well for IELTS reading time management
Do you struggle with IELTS reading time management? Do you use scanning and skimming but still find that you run out of time? Do you find some types of question very difficult and can never find the right answer (particularly headings match, MCQ's and information match)? Is your neck sore by the end of the exam from looking back and forth and back and forth from the questions to the passage and back again? Well, this is the podcast episode for you!About a year ago, I realised that the way IELTS teachers teach reading is the not the way that they actually read themselves. From that day forward, I totally revolutionised the way that I teach reading. It didn't happen overnight, but within a few months, I had advised a system that I christened "Read Once, Read Well".A system that I have found not only helps students improve their score (because they are actually reading now and understanding the passage) but also makes it much easier to finish the exam on time.
