How to pass IELTS test

I think you need to focus on the weak parts. Instead of just watching youtube, hold the pen and go to work. I just passed the exam, and it's pretty good. All thanks to a continuous effort. I think you find yourself something to make your learning more creative. Or maybe it's like I'm using a new pen, it's refreshing me and I'm creative in trying to learn IELTS. It also helps me write down important notes. Its colors will help me rewrite the necessary words, helping me to diversify my learning style. Help me save more time than studying laptop. I think it was a great new experience, you should try it.
Hello Reed. How was your exam? Its results are as you expect. I am interested about your method, and I have heard about the use of a pen. I agree that using the pen will help us avoid overexposure to technology. But I'm curious if it really helps me to be more mentally prepared?
You study English, you learn English and then you write the test.
Simple as that.
Also, there is no fail or pass, there is just a score.
Glad to share with you Hall. I think it depends on each person. For myself, after using the pen, it helps me to be more creative and remember better. But I think the problem is still how much you are determined and that you take the test again and again. Everything will get better soon.
First of all, familiarize yourself with the test format for all the 4 papers.
Then do as many practices as possible, especially for reading and listening papers.
For writing, read more sample passages and practice. Try to make good use of keywords for your target score.
For speaking, if you can't find someone to practice with you, record what you say and listen to your intonation, phrasing, flow and so on, and try to improve.
To start with, you can try writing down your thoughts in point form without setting a time limit for yourself, then read them out slowly and see if you can generate complete sentences with your written points.

Just do what you are asked to do- no more, no less. Keep it Simple.
As you go on with preparation, you will come to know where you are struggling and need to work on, it can be any section. LRWS. Or a specific area within each section.
If you are just starting out, start with the Official Cambridge material to get familiar with the test pattern. Once you begin to feel comfortable with all the sections, do a full-timed (3 hour) mock test, you will get a feel for the real exam and what it really expects from you.
Ask questions to improve.
Good Luck!
