The book is appropriate both for learners seeking to enter an English-speaking university, school or college, as well as for people who may need to provide an IELTS score for the purposes of immigration to an English-speaking country. The book is targeted at students of approximately Band 6 level; however, the earlier units in each section are designed for lower-level learners or students not familiar with the IELTS test format, while the later units are intended to stretch the stronger candidates beyond their immediate IELTS needs and enhance their language skills overall.

IELTS SPEAKING TIPS

As you know, there are 3 parts in the Speaking sub-test : Interview, Speech and Discussion.
The questions are predictable.

If you speak well, just go over it and prepare an answer in you head for every question. If you have someone to practice with - do it, if you don’t - I suggest that you record yourself. You can do that using your PC or voice recorder or even one of those MP3 players that can tape you as well.
To get the feeling of real IELTS Speaking test you can listen to sample of test and look at the questions and the transcript of the tapes.

Best advice to those who speak not so well:

1. Write your answers on a piece of paper.
2. Memorize them.
3. Speak to yourself - ask questions and answer with whatever you wrote. It will improve your pronunciation and make you more confident. This is how you overcome the initial shock of speaking English.
4. Practice a lot with you wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend, at first you may look at your paper and then don’t - test your memory.

One more important thing - in Speaking you can not receive half band, like 5.5 or 6.5. Your score will be full band, like 5 or 6.

The linegraph describes the growth of wages in Somecountry from year 1993 to year 2003.

Further on, the percentages declines to three percent in 1995, stays steady for year, before it start to rise slowly and ends up just under four percent in 1997. 1998 is the best year where the wages peaked at six percent.

However, after 1998 the wages declines nearly every year. Only a year after , the percentage drops to well under three percent, stays there on roughly three percent till 2000. In 2002 the wages reach the lowest point of just one percent growth. Luckily the growth rises in 2003 at just under two percent.

Overall, the growth rate in wages in Somecountry has shown striking changes through the ten years.


IELTS Teachers Comments: This is a good report. It covers the task, divided correctly into paragraphs and the vocabulary is just right. Problems: it has less than 150 words (146) and there are some grammatical errors. Assuming the corrections were made, looks like Band 7.

IELTS REPORT WRITING OF BAND 7

 

Topic:

The graph above shows annual water usage (in millions of cubic meters) by industries in some Country. Write a report for a university tutor describing the information shown. 

You are advised to spend a maximum of 20 minutes on this task.

The bar graph describes the water usage for every year in Somecountry in millions of cubic meters.
The water usage are shown in two trends , ground water and public supply. Fuel and textiles are the ones that uses the least water, 10 of public supply and [tippy title=”70 and 80″] It is not clear who uses 70 and who 80, also you didn’t mentioned the units (millions of cubic meters)[/tippy] of ground water. Machinery are just the opposite of these two and has 10 of ground water and 100 of public supply.
Food/drinks, metal, paper and chemicals are all over 100 of ground water where chemicals peaks at dramatically 430. The highest number of water usage of public supplies also belongs to chemicals (240). Next on the list is food/drinks with 190, the others are under 100.

Overall, the chemical industry uses a lot more water then the rest of the industries both ground water and public supplies, and in general most industries use ground water by far more then public supplies.


IELTS Teachers Comments: This is a good report, the trends are correctly noticed.Use units in addition to numbers (10 of what? Millions of cubic meters). Use more connective words to smoothly move from one paragraph to another. Pay attention to grammar.
