An effective IELTS Speaking strategy rests on understanding the three parts of the test and the four scoring criteria, namely fluency and coherence, lexical resource, grammatical range and accuracy, and pronunciation. By training each part separately, then weaving them together through self-recorded mocks, you build answers that flow, hold structure, and carry confidence within roughly six to ten weeks.
- The three parts of the test make different demands, and each part is trained with its own approach
- Each of the four scoring criteria carries a quarter of the weight, so balance shapes the score
- Self-recording and regular mocks turn nervousness into a calm habit of speaking
What You Need
