It is difficult to write in an organized way and summarizing the main ideas in single paragraph. I find it more difficult to write the task 1 comparison of bar chart, pie chart, pictorial representations etc. For task 2, writing my own ideas is easy when compared to task 1. And the most important thing is finding the right academic vocabulary is difficult. So...

Hi. I am manoj from India. I have already started preparing for IELTS (Academic) exam. I find reading skills very difficult, mostly running out of time. In writing skills, need to improve on organizing and summarizing the ideas both in task 1 and task 2. I hope this course will help me to improve in all four skills.

The tips are very good and useful. Even though i know some of the tips i haven't used them before while reading. Slimming and scanning needs lot of practice. These will also help you to get a good score in international English exams.

Yes. Listening is sometimes difficult when i lose concentration on the speaker. In IELTS test we need to concentrate very carefully as we hear only once.

Concentration is important while reading. Improve that. Reading everyday will be helpful to understand the contents at a faster rate. Practicing the reading skills test is good. Because i found that most of the time i lose marks in the true/false/not given exercise.

Hi. I don't read much. Even if i read something that will mostly about the topics i like. If i don't like the topics, reading will be difficult for me. Especially i won't understand the content itself. And also reading complex sentences will make it difficult to understand their meaning.

I found Academic word list very useful. As it contains the most useful vocabularies in the English language and also easy to use in any devices. Even i found Quizlet also a good way to learn vocabularies. But i found remembering the vocabularies is little bit difficult. Practicing is the only way.

Thanks for the clear explanations of speaking test sir. Really for speaking test lots of practice is needed to speak confidently and fluently. Is there any good tips for that for self practice ?. It is not like writing test where we will get sometime to think.
-
Thank you sir. All the tips in the video will be helpful for me. I have difficulty in speaking than writing in English because when i speak i am taking sometime to form a good sentence which actually breaks the fluency and also the confidence in which words to use. But while writing it is easier to make a good sentence because we can get sometime there to think.
