@@harkeeratsingh2509 if you already saw the ones on our channel and you need more, you have a problem. You can't improve your writing by just watching videos about writing, you actually have to write and get feedback on that writing.

I was attending 8 hours of offline classes (everyday), when I was preparing for IELTS, but that was waste of time because the teachers were unqualified. I got 7.5 bands because I had found this channel.😄

[@manmeetkaur4581]

This reminded me of the days when I was preparing for my IELTS test. Fortunately, I got 7 bands in speaking and now I am sitting in Canada. Thank you so much Chris for your commendable guidance

Just got my score from the Exam from May 3rd, L 9, R 8.5 W 7 S 7. Well sufficient for immigration purpose. Boosted my CRS score by 16 points and now it is well above all recent draft scores. Great tanks on the IELTS videos. I just watched Chris' videos and did not take the class, but I'd definitely recommend whoever has a weaker background to join his class and VIP service. This is a guy who really understand the IELTS test.

I‘m very impressed of this chanel! It‘s vivid and I like how the teacher speaks about different topics including details of his life. It sounds natural and makes the impression like you‘re deeply involved in a conversation and you don‘t have to bite the bullet learning a boring information.😉 Instead you‘re just having fun!

Thank you Chris for sharing such an informative and interesting video, though there are many other IELTS teachers but the thing I like the most about you is that you always go the extra mile. Believe me this video really killed two birds with one stone. First, we get to know about some useful idioms, secondly, we learn how to use them effectively. I definitely would burn the midnight oil to practice them in order to enhance my speaking skills. Thanks a million!

[@Ieltsadvantage]

That’s amazing. Congratulations.

[@greengrass6845]

Honestly speaking, I cautiously avoided almost all of these overused idioms in my Speaking test. Instead, I opted for the less frequently used expressions. My flow , while speaking, seems uninterrupted. In the last section, when the tougher questions are to be fielded , I am more inclined naturally to use complex and somehow longer sentences with minimal grammar lapses. The usage of academic and formal words, along with some idioms and phrases, helped me score 8.5 band in Speaking. It was two years back ,though. Now that I am vying for band 9, I must go above and beyond. Yours are greater tips to follow. You are greatly appreciated for your strenuous efforts to bring forth some gems and nuggets for rather hapless and hopeless students. By all accounts, scoring band 8.5 is not a cakewalk. You gotta go on a painstakingly hairy and uphill journey. Burn the bridges behind and burn the midnight oil till the cows come home.

A contribution that no one requested here: I took a certification test last month and really thought I could achieve a C1 because I assumed it would only take writing as I always do, but I couldn't make it and got a B2 level instead. My reaction to the results was "how's that even possible? I've been speaking this language for years. There must be a mistake". And I blamed not having used bunches of idioms in the writing and speaking part, but after this clear explanation, it's quite obvious that I indeed need to study 😂 because I took the examination without even knowing they deduct points hehe.
