the four sections.
IELTS speaking test duration: The test consists of 3 parts and involves
having a conversation of around 15 minutes with the examiner.
In Part 2, the examiner will give you a cue card or a task card based on
which you’ll have to talk. You will be given 1 minute to prepare for the
answer.
In Part 3 the examiner will ask you questions related to the topic given
in part 2 of the IELTS examination.
Given below are a few IELTS speaking tips and tricks that will help you
to speak with confidence in the actual test.
The Speaking section is the same for the Academic and General
module. So the terms “IELTS Academic speaking” and “IELTS General
speaking” are meaningless.
Be fluent
Be fluent. Don’t be nervous, it’s okay even if you don’t have an excellent
vocabulary. Do not give pauses and take care of grammar and diction.
Do not speak too fast and be clear while speaking.
There are a lot of sample IELTS speaking materials which you can use
for practice. Pick a topic from the sample question paper and try to
speak on it. Record what you speak. Then identify your mistakes and
plan how to overcome those mistakes.
If you don’t understand the question, there is nothing wrong in asking the
examiner to repeat. If you have any confusion regarding the question
asked, you can clarify it by asking the examiner to repeat. You will not
lose marks for asking doubts.
While taking the speaking test, choose the words carefully. Bring in
emotions, wherever necessary. Try to be like a native English speaker.
If the examiner asks you to speak about some topic, do not finish it in
one sentence. Try to talk about the topic completely.
If you make a mistake while speaking, do not get scared. Instead, try to
correct the mistake. There will be no deduction of marks if your thought
process is good.
When you are practicing for the speaking test, do not memorize the
answers. Try to make innovative and impressive content on your own.
From the way you talk, the examiner can easily find out if you are
spontaneous or not.
These IELTS speaking tips will surely help you to crack the exam with
confidence.
