Hi and welcome to my IELTS Speaking blog. I will be sharing ideas
about the IELTS test and also about Pronunciation and Speaking tips. As I am
now to blog writing it might seem a bit stiff but hopefully I will get the hang
of it soon and you will find it useful. I have been teaching ESL for many years
to hundreds of students from all corners of the globe. Recently I have been
teaching IELTS online to students who want to work or study in Canada or the
US. The IELTs is a very difficult exam and needs a lot of preparation even if
your English is good the exam is very specific so I would advice everyone to
get practice to increase your IELTS score.
It is very important to have teacher who is familiar
with the latest changes to IELTS and who give you lots of feedback or criticism.
Feedback is something you can’t get by self study or from doing an online
course unless it is in real time with a real humans. The teacher can give you
important speaking strategies allowing you to get the best score on your IELTS Speaking. Part 1 is the least important part and you should give short answers
not more than a few sentences. For example, “Do you live in an house or an
apartment?” Don’t ramble on about where you live and the examiner will have to
stop you as this par this only a matter of seconds. You might say "I live in an
apartment with my family in Toronto". The second question might be “Will you
live there in the future? Again just a a sentence like “No, actually, when I pass my IELTS I hope to move to
Calgary and buy a house next year”.
Some students who haven’t taken a good course might
speak for a few minutes and waste valuable time on a question that has a low impact.
The examiner has to follow script so don't chat or ask any questions for Part 1 and Part 2 because they can not answer any questions.
The second part IELTS Speaking Part 1 talks about familiar topics e.g accommodations, daily routines, entertainment, family food, holidays, interests, shopping, studies and work. try to give extended answers by giving reasons, examples and any other extra information the is relevant. Do not memorize long speeches as this will sound unnatural and will lose you marks.
If you were asked "Do you enjoying going shopping? "
A suitable and were might be: I like going shopping with my sister. There's a big shopping centre in the town where we live and we often go there at the weekend to look around the shops and have coffee. There's an ice rink there too so we sometimes take my little brother, but he doesn't like shopping! If I need to get something expensive like new shoes I'll go with my mom because she can pay for them.
