INSIGHT

Prioritize Broadly Useful Idioms

  • Using a few broadly applicable idioms is smarter than memorizing long lists for IELTS speaking.
  • Broad idioms let you slip natural language into many answers and boost your vocabulary score.
ADVICE

Use 'Creature Of Habit' For Routine Questions

  • Use the idiom "creature of habit" to answer routine questions naturally in part one.
  • Practice using it in different tenses so you can adapt it to many routine-related questions.
ADVICE

Practice Short Spoken Summaries Daily

  • Practice talking about varied topics aloud for three to five sentences to build fluency for IELTS.
  • Memorize filler phrases so you can keep speaking instead of producing dead air during the test.
