I'm struggling to pass the IELTS test to proceed in Canada residency. I have BSc Hons degree along with four years of industry experience as a programmer in various IT job role.

Dear mentors, please tell me any working solution to achieve my goal. I'm 30 years old and live in Sri Lanka.

Thank you for your time.

Study and practice are the solutions. Listen more than you speak, read more than you write, write more than you want to. Study, study, and then study some more. The greater the effort, the greater the reward. There is no shortcut to fluency.
