Tips for IELTS Speaking Success Band 7+

Dear IELTS Exam Candidate
                                         I will write Top 10 Tips about IELTS Speaking in which i am going to write 2 tips in this Blog and will write remaining in other Blogs so keep joining our blog regularly.

1) Take up the Challenge :-
                  Introduction 
If you’re reading this the chances are you're facing the IELTS Speaking exam and want to make sure you're successful on the big day.
What can you do in the time available to increase your chances of passing with the highest possible grade? Well, three things are essential:
 Goal 1: Make sure you know what to expect in the exam so you can prepare effectively and avoid any nasty surprises on the big day.
   Goal 2: Know your strengths in speaking English and the areas you need to improve.
  Goal 3: Take every opportunity to develop your English!
Speaking is often the one skill many students get the least amount of practice in. Why?
 Let’s imagine you’re currently living in a non-English speaking country. Let’s also imagine you're lucky enough to be attending a weekly one-hour Speaking lesson in a class of 12 students - that's 60 minutes.
Take off ten minutes for late arrivals, greetings and administration at the start and end of the lesson - that's 50 minutes left.
 The teacher might talk for about 30% of the lesson including giving instructions, feedback etc. - that's 35 minutes left.

2) Get to Know the Exam :-
                                          Goal 1: Know what to expect in the exam so you can prepare effectively and avoid any nasty surprises on the big day.
 Knowing your Speaking exam ‘inside out’ will increase your confidence and enable you to prepare effectively. In today's task, you'll become totally familiar with the structure of your exam with our twelve-question quiz.
