Top IELTS Tips

Listening: Focus on keyword stress

Underline keywords in questions and listen for synonyms and stressed words.

Reading: Skim, then scan

Skim for the main idea first; scan for details after you know the structure.

Writing: Task response first

Plan before you write; fully answer the question with clear paragraphs.

Speaking: Extend answers

Add a reason or example to each answer to show fluency and depth.

Grammar: Accuracy over speed

Fewer errors beat faster speaking. Slow down and be precise.

Vocabulary: Use collocations

Learn word partners (make a decision, heavy rain) for natural speech.
