People, I'm not a calculator – please stop asking me how long it takes to go from IELTS 6.0 to 7.0.

SPEAKING BAND 9.0 = IMMERSION

With my Pre-IELTS students, a program heavily focused on General English, we go over at least 3-4 minutes of relevant Spoken English – that is, in the form of celebrity interviews.

As you can see in the photo, these real life sources of English tend to feature loads of practical language necessary for IELTS Speaking. By regularly immersing yourself in such content, you gradually start to build up your language confidence. You can't simply expect to get better by speaking all day long – you only reinforce your bad language habits this way.

When answering questions like "Did you do much art when you were younger?", for example, you could say, "Well, I'm not really an arts guy, to be honest. I mean, I did a couple little things back in primary school, but I don't know anyone wants to call it actual drawing."

The key, however, is to record entire sentences, not just these seemingly cool stand-alone expressions or idioms. This is to ensure solid fluency (=ability to effortlessly put words together) and pronunciation. The basics matter, especially at lower levels (Bands 6.0-7.0); only when you reach the advanced level can you start being more selective, but for now focus on volume.

Good morning to everyone except people who don’t skip breakfast!

HOW TO USE SPEAKING SAMPLE ANSWERS

Guess what kind of course it is going to be. 👇

I went on a podcast today. Spoiler alert – I spoke Uzbek all the way through. Yeah, I know, right?

You will be the judge of my Uzbek when the video comes out.

Our live stream is set to start in less than an hour. Stay tuned!

The focus of our lesson is on improving your speaking through listening and watching. I will teach you how exactly my students and I use "interviews" and other natural English sources to help in the IELTS Speaking test.
