Alhumdulila, I got 8.5 in speaking following your suggestions, I tried using at least 2 idioms during the test, I memorised the list of idioms you gave and that Clover Uyen listed below in her comments. Thank you guys. You and E2 are the best for IELTS training! I got L 8.5, W 8, S 8.5 and R 7 thanks to both these channels :) I practised only for 2 weeks and while I speak pretty well usually, I did use Cambridge books as well to practise. Hope this helps someone!

Before watching this video, I wasn't confident to describe my feelings in various occasions. It really got on my nerves in the exams and drove me up the wall while doing my preparation. I couldn't wait to watch more of your videos as I'm sure they can really blow me away. When I was watching this video, I'm tickled pink and felt like it was music to my ears. Watching Keith's videos is just what the doctor ordered. I would be eternally grateful if I could achieve band 9 some days in the future. Hopefully at the end of the day, I am able to unwind a bit and focus back on my work that I am fed up with.

[@karlaalvarado5301]

Dear Keith. I am really having problem with my understanding. I do not know why I can not absorb the information in english that you are given to me but when somebody else said what their problems it, I can easily remember full color every thing. This video like others are important to me but I have to watch the video several times. Oh my good! Talking about feeling I am frustrated. You are the best teacher a ever find out in KZbin.

Thank you so much, Keith! This was perfect! I have my speaking in 2 days from now, and I am having butterflies in my stomach. Also, I am just adding one feeling that I was looking for to describe the "accident I witnessed" and how I felt. I was particularly looking for feeling of being scared, I tried using nervous or sad, but it didn't fit the context. Here are few I noted down from internet (of course!) for anyone else who could be looking for it: 1. Make your blood run cold. 2. Jump out of skin 3. Skipped the heart beat 4. Scared to death 5. Shook the ground

P2: Describe a place (not your house) you usually go for relaxation.
