Description

Taking Band 7 students to Band 8-9 in IELTS Speaking.

This course is focused on demonstrating natural, idiomatic and grammatically-advanced English language skills which will impress the IELTS examiner.


Idiomatic/Expressive Language to impress them:

Instead of spending a lot of money, we SPLASH OUT!

Rather than tolerating something annoying, we.... PUT UP WITH it.

We aren't just happy --> we're over the moon!


Linking devices to make them say wow:

When we want to tell the examiner additional information, we don't say furthermore! NO!- We say on top of that!

If we want to contrast views, we can say... but at the same time.. or mind you.. ( The examiner will be amazed when you use something like mind you in your answer!)

Regarding -> but as far as _______ goes, ....

Such as ______  -> the likes of  ______.


Grammar to make them do a double-take:

Third conditional is a breeze! -> If I hadn't shown you the third conditional, you might've not used it in your test!

Creative connecting -> You'll be just as impressed as the examiner!


Cool right?!


Are you ready to dive in and actually see some answers that will blow the examiner away?!!


This course includes:

-12 Complete IELTS Speaking Test Samples (Bands 8-9)!

-Annotations of each perfect answer given!

-Heaps of idioms, phrasal verbs, descriptive adjectives, grammar structure points and tips throughout!

- Colour-coordinated answers which show what language increases which score (Fluency & Coherence/ Lexical Resources/ Grammatical Range & Accuracy).

Take your English Speaking to the next level!
