How can I do well in IELTS speaking?

Answer 1

There are a few tricks to doing well on IELTS speaking. The best thing for you to do is to find a study buddy that you can practice the test with. This person can ask you questions in English and you can practice answering them. You can do this even if you don't have any practice questions because IELTS recycles the same subjects again and again . Here are some great topics to practice discussing:

Free time

Your hometown

Favorite holidays

Memories of Holidays

Sports

Travel and transportation.

Also, learning vocabulary related to these topics are also very useful.

Another thing you can do is watch videos of IELTS candidates on youtube. There are lots of great examples of students at different band scores and this can give you an idea of what to expect.

Hope this helps! Good luck on the test!
