Hello,
I'm an IELTS teacher in Japan. I created a new topic for IELTS learners to share experience in sitting for IELTS test, how to master IELTS, IELTS tips, strategy and instructions on getting a high score (7.0 and above).
I also provide Speaking Prediction Material for IELTS Speaking (from April to August). If anyone want to get all of these materials, feel free to let me know.
I will be the very first person to share with you how I got a 8.5 in IELTS (Listening 8.5; Reading 9.0; Writing 8.0; Speaking 8.5).
Firstly, I would like to share the first 3 tips in getting Speaking 8.5 ( 7 more tips will be updated tomorrow)
- Tip 1: Use at least 2 idioms and collocations
eg: I'm a bundle of nerves (it means you are really nervous)
I'm over the moon now (you are very happy)
- Tip 2: Use linking words to connect your ideas
eg: On the one hand, I'm in favor of the idea that the online ma will take over the position of press because people can easily get access to the Internet by tablets, smartphones, laptops without
- Tip 3: Don't use slang (IELTS is a formal test to assess English proficiency of candidates, therefore, you should try to be more formal, don't use slang like a kid)
eg: I work my socks off to get a high score for my IELTS test
not I work my ass off to get a high score for my IELTS test
