Bilingual IELTS resource text

Anil Dubey, former country manager (India) of IDP:IELTS Australia, and Roohi Trehan, former administrator (Delhi) IDP, have recently published a first-of-its-kind, utilitarian textbook IELTS Made Easy (IELTS Facilitation Centre, Gurgaon, Price: Rs.1,500).

β€œThe book offers aid and advice to students writing the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exam, clearance of which is a mandatory requirement for students and emigrants heading for the shores of English speaking countries. It advises them on how to increase their test scores. This is the first ever bilingual (Hindi and English) book on IELTS. Other bilingual versions β€” English and Gujarati, Malayalam and Chinese β€” are under production. Initial feedback indicates that the English/Hindi textbook has become a Bible for organisations in the field of IELTS training, study abroad, and immigration,” says Dubey.

IELTS Facilitation Centre is a constituent enterprise of PYK Enterprises (estb. 2003), a company incorporated to impart IELTS training to age 16-plus people travelling abroad for higher study or immigration purposes.
