Simone Braverman

Simone Braverman is the founder of the website IELTS-Blog.com - the ultimate free resource for IELTS preparation, visited by millions every year.

Simone's mission is to help busy people whose English is far from perfect to achieve a high score in IELTS (higher than they ever expected) after a short preparation in their spare time - even if they scored low previously, have a learning disability, too busy working 24/7 or are afraid to death of exams.

Firsthand knowledge of the difficulties that non-native English speakers experience allowed Simone to develop a range of solutions to their problems, which laid the foundation to her first two books that later exploded in popularity – "Ace the IELTS" and "Target Band 7". The series of IELTS practice test books "High Scorer's Choice" followed and was just as successful.

Simone's IELTS preparation books consistently achieve 5-star ratings and get raving reviews from students and teachers. Over 500,000 people are following IELTS-Blog's daily tips and updates to stay on top of the latest trends in IELTS.

'Target Band 7' and 'Ace the IELTS' e-books were downloaded over 352,000 times.

Since its creation ELTS-Blog.com was visited by over 15 MILLION test takers who downloaded 50+ MILLION pages.

Not only students but also teachers choose Simone's books.

A teacher's testimonial for 'Ace the IELTS'

"Terrific book!

I teach IELTS and own over ten IELTS books. This is one of my favourites because the author has delivered excellent information in a short, user-friendly book.

Importantly, it is written in plain English so it is easy to understand. It focusses on plenty of useful tips and tricks which can be of great benefit for anyone who is going to take the IELTS test.

Other great features include appropriate phrases to use in the writing and speaking segments as well as an excellent study plan that students can use to prepare for the test.

It is a terrific book for IELTS preparation."

"A welcome resource for busy test takers.

Target Band 7 breaks new ground in the IELTS materials market as its author has actually taken the IELTS test and achieved a high level! This makes the many explanations and tips really relevant and user-friendly and helps to connect the reader to the writer in an authentic way.

The book is organised into many, manageable sections, and written in a personal style, making the excellent suggestions for increasing an IELTS score easy for non-native speakers of English to access, read and to absorb.

Definitely a welcome resource for busy test takers."
