Dear Joe, Hope you are doing fine. I was so glad to receive your letter yesterday and knowing that you and your family members are fine was a happy news for me. You also asked me about my preparation for the IELTS test. Well, I am in a better position than I was few weeks earlier regarding my IELTS preparation. Now that I know the exam format and the type of questions that I will likely encounter in the original IELTS exam, I feel more comfortable about the test. As you know I was quite busy with my part-time job and that’s why could not get enrolled in any IELTS preparation centre. I am preparing from the IELTS books I bought and from online resources. I found 2/3 really helpful websites that have plenty of resources for the test. I am spending three hours every day and I have taken some mock tests in my computer. Overall preparation is satisfactory so far but the Academic Reading section needs more practice as I am still getting poor mark in the mock test in reading section. The lengthy passages and the questions sometimes give me the impression that I still need to devote more times in reading section. How is your progress in your TOEFL preparation? When are you going to register for the test? I look forward to hearing from your soon. Convey my love to your parents and sibling. Yours Truly, Jayant
