I don't understand why the complexity of sentence structures is a grading standard. My sentences can be simple and rich in meanings at the same time. I don't make my sentences complex just for the sake of being complex and native speakers of English don't do that either.

[@TheBelalova]

杜嘉偌 what other options do they have to make sure you actually know and can use those structures? I guess this is the only explanation for this criterion. I am currently preparing for CPE and my tutor tells me I have to use inversions even in the first part when they ask me about my street and my job) that is ridiculous of course

[@user-vv5gm6hp3r]

Yeah unfortunately we are not native English speakers so we have to take these tests even if they can be rediculous.

[@HoNiAn]

I think is not about complex words, it's about using complex structures

[@Veredictor]

just because points...

[@杨晟-x3x]

probably you misunderstood the meaning of complexity. The simple sentence represent something like ' i like eat chicken. i like eat fish' and actually you could just say i like eat chicken and fish'. The complex sentence structure is a thing to show you have ability to express your idea effectively rather than a mean to show off your understanding of complexity of sentence structure.

[@Arturest]

I find this test extremely biased and by no means it evaluates your ability to speak English, because some people are shy and they will get bad score on this even though they can speak and understand English to a very high level. In my opinion this test has much more to do with one's interpersonal communication skills and charisma than to his/her English level.

[@Lisa-bs4bq]

Shruti Singh i think my English is good enough however i hear people saying 6 is the average, so could you share how you got 8.5 please, i would really appreciate it!

[@ya__basic]

Hi Lisa, I will share with you what I shared with someone yesterday in another video. First of all, a lot of people say a lot of things about the dos and don'ts of Speaking Test. Some things are common sense and some are on the borderline of 'being-too-careful'. To answer your question - I didn't prepare shit! I just went and improvised while being calm as a Hindu cow! That was my plan. But, I will tell you a few "unconventional" things I did during my speaking. 1. I didn't understand a question which the examiner had asked, so I asked her to repeat. There's no biggie if you ask an examiner to repeat or paraphrase a question if you didn't understand it the first time. 2. I even asked for a few seconds (4-5 seconds, actually) to think before answering another question I didn't have an immediate answer to. 3. My examiner asked me another question and the answer I gave was more or less along the same lines of an answer I had given on a previous question. Here's what I think of a Speaking test - it is like having a televised interview with a talk show host. Just walk in with calm nerves, smile on your face, make sure your grammar is intact, your rate of speech is normal, your accent is understandable, your content is decent, and you will make it! Good luck!

[@Lisa-bs4bq]

Shruti Singh thank you very much I really appreciate your help!

[@chnrbk1]

Congrats. Can you point me to some sites for preparation. Study material

[@ya__basic]

Hi Eshwar! Hope you have read my comment above on preparation. I literally didn't prepare a bit for IELTS and I got 7.5 because I am naturally good in English since school. But I feel that if you practice all the mocks from the book you receive from IELTS after you register, that should be sufficient. After scoring an overall of 7.5, I wouldn't say IELTS is easy. I would probably have scored an overall of 8 if I wasn't sick with fever and having a hard time in the chilled center! I found Speaking and Listening to be the easiest sections. I have 7.5 in listening. I missed out on some words, I wasn't listening too carefully. Just listen carefully and you will ace it. Basically, you will be told a story and given a page with missing words. You just have to write down the missing words in the blanks. It's easy! They speak in British accent, btw. In writing, I received a 7. I am not impressed by it, I knew I could have done better. I didn't pay enough attention to the two graphs given on a question, and so my content suffered. That's my guess. Reading was the area I struggled with a lot! I scored only 6. I left many questions unanswered because I was all confused and all over the place. My tip here would be to definitely practice your reading skills, because the passages are lengthy and questions are plenty. One final thing I have noticed is that you can't afford to waste a second on real time exam. So, timed mock practices would be a good idea. Practice your weak area a few times, go through the IELTS format for each section and believe in your ability. You can ace it! Good luck!

Hey guys. I recently gave my exam (2nd march) *Listening test.* Section 1: Conversation with a mom to register her son for swimming. The question was form filling. Section 2: A manager giving new employees details of the store layout and what makes the store special. Section 3: A group of students who were discussing their art portfolios. Section 4 : A speech on the language and literature in Australia. *Reading test* Passage 1: A place called 'Elche' and it's famous due to its massive date palm plantations and the role it plays in the research of date palms. Passage 2: The cultures of West Africa. Passage 3: The down sides of multitasking. *Writing test* Task 1 They gave a table. The columns represented the domestic sector, industrial sector and the agriculture sector. Then they showed us how 6 different countries use their water according to the sectors. E.g. Australia uses 65% of water for domestic, 7% for industrial and 28% for agricultural sectors. Task 2 Many directors and leaders are older people at organisations. Many people believe that it is better for a younger person to be a leader. How far do you agree or disagree. *Speaking test* Part 1 Are you currently working or studying? Where do you study? Do you like the school you study at? What would you like to improve about your school? What forms of art do you like? Why do like these forms of art? Do you own any pieces of art? Do you have any form of education in art? Part 2 Describe a part of your country that you find interesting. Q1. Where is this place located Q2. How you got to know about this place. Q3. What is special about this place. Q4. Your feelings about this place. 1 minute preparation time. 1-2 minutes speaking time. Part 3 Do you like this part of the country that you find interesting? Do you believe that there are differences between the areas in a country? Do you prefer the countryside or the urban areas? Why? Do you think that there can be competition between 2 areas of a country as to where people choose to live? Is this competition good? Do you think such competition happens between schools as well? "Then she was like let's talk about town planning" Do you think urban cities are planned carefully? Do you think they can be planned better? Do you think too much planning make a town boring to live in?

To be honest with you, I struggled a lot to get a good mark in speaking in my previous exam attempts, I got like 5.5 and once 6.5. So I think that if I had the opportunity to speak to a native speaker like you it would help me a lot, so could you sacrifice some time and having a little chat with me from time to time?

Nina Gordon I think I put too much concern on not making grammatical mistakes when talking in English, which in turn makes me stumble or pause inappropriately and ultimately affecting my performance in exam...I think this is related to personal traits of trying to be perfect or flawless..another factor is that when you are very good at your mother tongue language you always feel helpless or awkward in some way when trying to speak a foreign language, making comparison between the two is unfair and fruitless and even could hamper your progress in learning and mastering a new language. In my opinion the personal factors play an important role for any progress. . Show quoted text

[@thequerier47]

Haytham Mekki Ah, that does make sense ad definitely would hinder your progress. It's okay! Practice makes perfect. Eventually you will learn to speak very well - because you already know how to online or on paper: It's just the time it takes in real time that affects you. I suggest keep talking to people in real life in English, and it will definitely help you further your skills. Habits definitely can shape one person's life, and if you're unused to chatting or conversing with a person in real time, it can be difficult. However, that being said I'm sure you'll catch up quickly since you already know the English language pretty well, and you've already nailed the sophisticated parts of English (Grammar, complex language, colloquialism) :)

How can u differentiate between a fake smile and a real one. ( I don't recall all the questions. But one thing. Do prepare for certain psychological questions as well.) Part 2 : Talk about a person who can speak a foreign language well Part 3 : Questions related to Language : 1. How is learning a foreign language beneficial from your perspective. 2. What are the barriers that one might face ? 3. Some people say, that learning a foreign language requires a lot of effort. What u think? 4. Which foreign langauge is most spoken in your country ? 5. If 2 countries have the same foreign langauge, Does it mean that those two countries will have the same culture. ? ( I don't recall all, but I was asked around 10-12 questions in part 3. ) The speaking section is easy. The invigilator is also calm and friendly.

Notice that during the last test (dialogue), the tester asks a question, and then stays silent. She doesn't give any audible reactions while the guys speaks, like mhmm, uh-huh, ah, etc.

[@jane29jeng]

I like that he is very laid back. It’s as if it’s just another day in the office talking to a coworker than having an exam. I think body language plays an important role in speaking tests.

[@大乱斗骚套路]

For those people who complain about his accent and think he does not deserve a band score of 8. U should really read the criteria of marking again, there is nothing wrong with having an accent as long as you can be understood by the examiner. Ofcourse u will be assessed on how well your pronunaciation is but at least we can understand his speaking easily. With his fluency and wide range of vocabulary, he is absolutely fine to get a socre more than 8.

[@theaweary]

+PERCY BUTTONS Accent is acceptable but pronounciation is worse than his accent. That is a reason why people complaint it couldn't be a 8-9 mark.

[@ericasenglish8613]

He also speaks with natural intonation, thought groups and word and syllable stress, hence the high score.

[@moosama8917]

he spoke in detail, he did not settle for 1 or 2 word answers and this is the reason i think he deserved a higher score

[@VibhutiKaul]

Javi speaks English incredibly well. Even though I can tell he's Spanish, his English is so good his accent has been softened and his vocabulary range and style of speaking just sounds like he's lived for a long time in the UK.

Oh my God, I think he got that score not for his speaking kills..maybe 4 being handsome or his smile :D

[@gaybulloparmonov5123]

As I thought it was the only good. He really tried to speak clearly and who was able to work out each question without difficulty based on experiment

[@HaidzWorld]

unbelievable he's keep on saying uhmmm according to my eilts teacher it decreased your score by saying uhmm many times. how come?

[@IELTSwithBrad]

It only decreases your score if you say ummmm when you are trying to think of vocabulary half way through the sentence. For example: I want to be a ummmmm engineer. It's ok to say: ummmm I want to be an engineer. Umm for thinking is ok but ummmm for trying to remember is not good for fluency and vocabulary.

I was also expecting a more native-like performance, but i'm glad He got high score, i couldn't study enough ,and neither i had very good results, but was somehow fulfilling to know i have some start point, and also would be very excited to improve. I guess maybe to grasp a nearly C1 level, one important thing is to live days and days in full English, everyday situation, i mean, reading, composing phrases when you talking to people at street, job, home, and when having your own life reflections on spare time. Just one more thing, we're all humans, life is always a learning adventure, and we somehow shere this very world.

I am not sure why is he writing anything if this is a speaking TEST !!!??? I took an IELTS- first part was tons of questions and second part was - + I had to talk about a person that was close to me ( could be my friend or a family member. Was not writing anything so I am not sure if what they show here is true.

[@MValeM1]

That's true. I took the exam years ago and during the second part I had the chance to write key words before start talking.

[@martam518]

Key word. Its funny. They give you one minute to write key word. I think one minute is mot enough even to think about a person i want tobtalk about. I think they do it so people fail, and they have to pay over 200.00 usd to retake the test. Even on my matura test you have much more time just tl thinknabout the subject you want to talk about. I think this " one minute they give you" before speaking is a big joke!,,

you can tell that people who get Band 9 are very intelligent. to me, the hardest part is to get such ideas and express them correctly in a spontaneous and natural way. plus, I get super nervous during speaking tests, so that doesn’t help.
