Hi, samdubai,
For IELTS preparation you can either study and practice the books meant for that or you can attend some academy which trains and helps to prepare for this purpose.I suggest if you got your education in English then the only thing you need is to go through one of the books that are meant for this practice and orientation.

Good Luck

Hello,
You must buy the official practice material from British council examine it carefully; the style of the tests. Pracitce the listening exercise.
You can also search some practice material -there is alot on the internet.
Caution- The listening test is tricky, in some centres the loud speakers are not good so be very attentive and focused from the very second the CD starts playing.

Writting - practice writting good english - long sentences with good gramma, trick- plan your eassy properly.

Reading, practice some reading- use internet material

Speaking -try to answer the question with long sentences, do not speak so slowly. Be confident even if you do not now the answer, say it because they are testing how comfortable you are while speaking english.

Gbenga,
If you wish to succeed at getting this Canadian visa with less heartache, I will honestly advise you to use an agent. I used Campbell Cohen and to tell you the truth, their procedures and advice can be a pain in the ass; but very very effective. I submitted my papers in june 2009 and by september the visa office sent in my medical papers. I have collected my Visas documents. The fee of about 2000 USD may look steep, but it takes out a lot of stress and delay when compared to dealing directly with the visa office.

As for the IELTS exams and preparation, go to any British Council office and purchase the package and if possible enroll with some centres carrying out private preparation if you happen to live in major Nigerian cities.

The key point in my advice is : Do it right the first time by using the right tools and resources. Cheers.
