  1. Tips for Not Ruining Speaking Test of the IELTS Exam

  2. Introduction • If you're reading this article, you probably know what is IELTS, if not don't you worry, I've got you covered. So, IELTS is a short form to the International English Language Testing System which is a standardized test for evaluating the English language proficiency of an individual. The IELTS test evaluates the candidates in four different sections: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. • The listening, reading, and writing section needs lots of practice and preparing it with IELTS Singapore can help you get a high band score in the IELTS. The speaking part, on the other hand, candidates need to be more cautious. Despite having very good speaking English, we have seen candidates not able to score high. In this blog, I will discuss things that you should never do in your speaking exam to avoid losing your band score. Let's dig in further now.

  3. Reach The IELTS Exam Center Prior The Mentioned Time • Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to reach the test center and find out where the speaking test will be. Getting early won’t harm in anyway but ultimately will help you to concentrate on the speaking test rather than anything else. If you don’t reach in time, I am afraid your IELTS preparation might go into the vain.

  4. Avoid hand gestures while answering • Many candidates were found moving hands during the speaking test, this not only distracts the examiners but also indicates a lack of confidence. The best way to avoid hand gestures is by keeping yourself calm and focused, this will restrict hand movement automatically.

  5. Keep fake accents in your pockets • Candidates often go for American or British accent while answering in the speaking test of the IELTS test Singapore. If you are fine with any of the both you can surely go with that but if you’re not comfortable enough and attempting hard then it is a reason to worry. Examiners will think that you’re faking an accent or showing off in the exam. To be honest, accent merely matters as long as it doesn’t harm your ability to communicate with examiners in the exam hall.

  6. Never memorize your answers • Memorizing answers not only affects your natural speaking ability but leaves a bad impression in the mind of the examiner. Don't think that examiners are a fool, they can recognize a scripted answer instantly without a doubt. Thus, it is a pretty bad idea, you might experience some of the toughest questions being asked to you to establish your real English speaking level. So, never do that!

  7. Examiner’s expression doesn’t say it all • Never notice the examiner's expression, they may be good or bad at the same time. But, never feel amazed when they smile. This doesn't mean that you are speaking great or anything else. The examiner might be smiling because he is supposed to do so as per instruction by the council in the IELTS exam. Remember one thing, your opinion doesn't matter here, but your speaking ability counts. So, focus on your communication skills rather than wooing the examiner with your opinion.

  8. Using “complex” words can be troublesome • There's is prevalent disbelief that using complex words while answering in the IELTS speaking test can hand you a higher band score. Absolutely NO! If you focus on your listening exam, you should know the IELTS doesn't have any complex words in the recording. Generally, the words used in the recording are quite easy to understand and are small academic and accurate words. I would suggest you demonstrate that you have a sturdy grip on the vocabulary but you shouldn't try to use words that you don't have any knowledge of.

  9. Try to explain your answer • Never answer in just yes or no in the speaking test of the IELTS exam Singapore. For instance, the examiner asks you " Do you like playing cricket? Why?", the candidate who is weak in English will answer in just yes or no. If you say something like this your score might come down to the floor. Instead of doing so, start answering slowly allowing yourself to make up answers in the mind and speak fluently in front of the examiner.

  10. Showing off grammar can be a bad idea • If you can't handle the grammar with your answer as fluently, it is going to ruin things for you. There's no point in showing off future continuous tense if it is not getting fit in the context. Instead of doing so, you can practice grammar for the IELTS speaking test by enrolling yourself with Jamboree Education.

  11. Summing up, I would say, make sure you remember these tips. Speaking test is not as tough as it seems to be if you practice hard and prepare yourself for everything they throw at you to answer. In case you are finding any difficulty with your IELTS preparation you can contact Jamboree Education.
