IELTS SPEAKING is the last paper of the IELTS test; as you will see in ‘The Structure” the video, there are three parts in total. While normally all my students find PART 1 relatively easy, PART 2 (individual long turn = monologue) and Part 3 (two-way conversation with the examiner) can be tricky for different reasons. Most of the time people ask me “how can I talk about a topic for 2 minutes uninterrupted?'‘ or ‘I get really nervous, what can I do?'‘ or “how do I impress the examiner?’ or “should I focus more on the grammar or on the vocabulary? Is pronunciation assessed?”.
All these questions have answers: “examiners don’t want to be impressed but are there to assess your language and will give you the fair score; grammar and vocabulary are both important and how to approach the 2-min monologue? Again, like in all other IELTS papers, it is a matter of TECHNIQUEs and STRATEGIES, which I will teach you in my courses.
I have prepared some videos for you so that you become familiar with he structure of the test and I have also designed a SPEAKING COURSE for you so that you can improve your grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation and time management The SPEAKING MOCK test is also useful if you would like to practice under ‘exam conditions’ with me and if you want tailor-made feedback
