Every year, thousands of students sit for IELTS. However, the number of those who are recognized to be capable enough to take a course in English is somehow limited, especially for those who are not major in English at their universities.  \nIELTS Reading is considered as a discerning skill and itisofthe equal importance to listening, speaking and writing in obtaining the objectives ofIELTS of band 6 or 6.5. Being teachers ofEnglish at a training institution, the authors recognize that students can make time-saving improvements in their reading command under their teachers’insightful guidance.  \nKeywords: IELTS reading; Skimming; Scanning; Academic.  \n1. Introduction  \nThe burgeoning number of students entering overseas universities and the international labor market has prompted a necessity to establish a standardized language test for the evaluation of leaners’ language proficiency. As a result, one of the most extensively employed tests serving this purpose is the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) . IELTS has become a worldwide trusted mechanism to assess learners’ability, thus having been integrated in the curriculum of many education systems. The test covers four skills including Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Each skill demands distinctive teaching methods to stimulate the motivation in students. There has been numerous research into the strategies for imparting the modules regarding Listening, Writing, and Speaking whereas the field of Reading has not received much attention. Reading has never been considered as an interesting task, especially when it comes to reading tasks of more than 2000 words with intensive acquisition. Furthermore, the constant exposure to academic language together with extensive background knowledge has debilitated any attempt to conquer the lengthy and nerve-wracking IELTS reading passages. Hence, they have posed a real challenge to instructorsin the long-term for the maximum effectiveness of transferring the skills to learners of different levels. This study works on the effort to identify the applicable reading teaching techniques to IELTS Reading exam for leaners on the preparation of the test.  \n2. General perceptions of reading  \n2.1.

Consequently, researchers have pinpointed the componential skills as followed:  \n1. Automatic recognition skills  \n2. Vocabulary and structural knowledge  \n3. Formal discourse structure knowledge  \n4. Content/world background knowledge  \n5. Synthesis and evaluation skills/strategies  \n6. Metacognitive knowledge and skills monitoring  \nStudies carried out over the last thirty years has changed our assumption of reading as a process of decoding.
