Hi guys, just my two cents - While I know a lot of you are eager to embark on those Simons, Cambridge Materials for your IELTS training, and while that is the path well treaded upon, you can also do an "off-training" practice to supplement your regimen. This doesn't need to be structurally IELTS-format based as long as it is engaging and is still challenging your command of the English language. From my experience, listening to the Audio books of Game of Thrones (Books 3-5) had been an acquired hobby when I was preparing and it worked really well for me.
Don't forget to try and fun while you're honing your skills! From my experience, trying to devote "serious hours" of study usually leads to serious hours of sleep. It helps to trick your mind that what you're doing is cool and fun and awesome and that the world will never be the same once you have finished writing that Type 2 essay (ahem, curse you Writing)!
Goodluck and Godbless mga ma'am/sir! 🙂
