Thanks 😊 seen

[@gracepam6965]

thank you so much Choima

[@Him134-]

I told myself that I will definitely come back here and say thank you. God used you to help me. I followed your advice and the site was in particular very helpful. I got my test results today, and with no classes, no books read, I got an overall band score of 8.5. Once more, thank you.

[@savageolayinka113]

Wao. You have really boosted my morals. I will be applying soon for IELT exam. I pray I have a good score.

[@matildawolfram4687]

Nice video! Taking IELTS requires special preparation. Everyone who has taken IELTS will confirm that it is not enough to communicate fluently in English in order to get the necessary scores. When preparing for the exam, I recommend you to study special IELTS preparation books because they are specially designed for a student to understand how to take the exam. Take IELTS practice tests to prepare psychologically for the exam and get a feel for the time. In addition to IELTS textbooks and simulators, I also recommend for you Yuriy Ivantsiv's practice book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language". This book provides tips on solving many of the problems that every student faces when preparing for the exam. For example, how to effectively memorize new words, how to learn to write without mistakes, how to begin discussing a topic without stuttering, how to memorize new and why one forgets and much more. I wish everyone a 9.0 IELTS ! Good luck in creating your best future! Believe in yourself and never give up friends!

[@kaitiracedric2381]

I did one mock test before my IELTS Academic(2023) as well, and scored an 8. It wasn't timed, but I was super cautious of the time allocation and basically did a "speed run" Can't say for sure but I have a friend who said some test centres are more lenient than others because of the general quality of English spoken in the area...so maybe targeting a one a low average score can help. I struggled with speaking because I talk really fast and quickly ran out of things to say(note to self: take your time) My writing wasn't perfect either. I scored a 7 and still can't pin down the reason why. Getting feedback on it will definitely help. I'll probably have to do another IELTS test when I'm relocating to Australia for work or a PhD. Thanks for the tips Chioma👏👏 Listening- 9 Reading-8.5 Writing-7 Speaking-7.5

[@lifewithchioma]

Goodluck in your next (and hopefully final) run. Maybe the free webinars in the website I recommended can help?

[@OkosiHovune]

But you passed the test with this result, no?

[@jefferangulo]

You're great, you manage to explain every detail without deviating from the central theme. 💯

[@omoti2361]

I used every steps and study with your pinned ielts practice it really helped me a lot my results came out today and it was a pass. My advice to future takes please try to finish up ur works. From listening, reading and writing also don't spend so much time figuring an answer move to the next then later u finish up the ones you did not answer. Also when it comes to speaking please be confident. And use Words you know the meanings don't just use UNWANTED grammar that u don't know the meanings. Good luck to you all.

[@lifewithchioma]

I am so glad to hear about your good result. Congratulations, and your advice to other test takers makes so much sense.

[@lifewithchioma]

Congratulations (4 months later 😊). Glad I could help even a little.

[@marinusugbaje4474]

Same applied to me. I scored 8777 in LRWS with little preparation. Targeting at least an eight in each component for general training in my next attempt.

[@lifewithchioma]

It's such a great feeling when you get a good outcome with little prep. All the best in your second run🙏🏽

[@marinusugbaje4474]

It will interest viewers to know that ielts is all about strategies. Coming from Nigeria, my English is sufficient enough to ace any proficiency exam. Just follow their marking criteria and keep it simple. learn to use complex sentences that include independent and dependent clauses. Stop searching for fancy words and idioms to "impress" the eximaners. There is a likelihood that u will end up using them incorrectly, which will affect your overall score. Don't be too careful in avoiding grammatical errors in your speaking test, cos you may end up making more mistakes. Know that English is not your mother tongue. I found KZbin videos very useful. These included ieltsadvantage by Chris Pell and E2 by Jay. Just study the marking criteria and you will be fine

[@owoeyejnr3055]

Me too, I'm considering not taking it in January anymore now, I had such a nonchalant mindset concerning this exam, I never thought I'd need special prep😂 I was literally planning to walk in on that day and blaze but after watching some of her videos I've realized I'd need the highest score I can pull off for PR points
