Hello, Charmy, Thanks for sharing your first practice speaking with us! Here are a few thoughts that can hopefully help guide and focus your speaking practice. Your fluency is quite good, in general. You speak quickly, and effectively make conversational use of “kind of,” “like,” and “usually.” I wo...

Paperheart, This is the most fluent and excited I’ve heard you speak! This was wonderful. Nice job! Your vocabulary, as usual, is very good. Some of the areas to work on this time include sentence structure/grammar and speaking more. Sentence structure/grammar: - And the reason why I wanted to get t...

Hi, Durai, Thank you for sharing about the sari manufacturing process in India. That was interesting to hear about. Your vocabulary was sophisticated and technical throughout the speech. Some words I heard you say that were good were “extracting,” “woven,” and “textile.” One word, “pupating,” had me...

Hi, Paperheart. This speech was a bit better than the last one I heard. This time, I was struck by the clarity of your pronunciation and your overall lack of a strong accent. You are quite easy to understand. There was one word, “genuine,” that stuck out a bit. You said “genOOin,” but you want a “y”...

Hi, Paperheart, Thank you for sharing about your friendship with your friend! You provided some good examples that help the listener to better understand your friendship. Using linking phrases and transitions, such as, “for example” is always a good idea. Nice work there. You’re right that your paus...

Hi, Mohammed, I hope you did well on your test! Although this review is late, I hope it still offers some tips for future improvement. The main area I noticed that needs improvement is pronunciation. Your vocabulary, organization, etc. were all quite good. Even the pronunciation problems you had wer...

Hello, Mohammed, Thanks for sharing your ideas about sports! It sounds like you really enjoy them, which made listening to your speech more interesting. The more enthusiasm you have, the better it is for your listener. Your pronunciation, overall, was fine. At one point, you said, “pick,” when you m...

Allen_Zhang, This sounds like a really cool place to visit! I can’t believe you climbed to the top of the pagoda with a bamboo pole. . .So dangerous! You had a nice introduction, using, “I’m going to talk about. . .” There were not many, if any, transitions between the talking points in your speech....

Hello, Mohammed, This building sounds really neat-looking! Thank you for sharing what you know about it. Your pronunciation overall was very good. There was one point when I couldn’t quite make out what you were saying, though. That was when you said, “When it was constructed, a lot of __?__ was use...

Hi, Allen_Zhang Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this book. It sounds like a good read! Your pronunciation is clear overall, although there were a few times I wasn’t sure what you were saying. For example, it sounded like you were saying “late working” instead of “Networking” when you descr...

Hello, Paperheart, I don’t think you’re going to get only a “6” this time; you will do much better than that, I believe. Your speaking was slow, but clear, for the most part. Your pronunciation was great, although the word “inspiration” sounded like “eenspeeration.” Make sure to make the short “I” s...

Hi, Neha, Overall, nice job on this topic. You were very fluent in your rate of speech and pronunciation most of the time. At one point, you said, “things like this,” but it sounded like “tings like dees.” Make sure you put your tongue between your teeth when you say words that begin with “th.” “Thi...

Hello. Your recording is very difficult to hear. I have my volume turned all the way up, but I cannot make out most of what you are saying. Please record it again and repost. Thanks!

Saqibali, Hello, and thank you for sharing your thoughts about the interview questions. Your organization and use of transitions and connectors was quite good. I heard you use, “first,” “second,” “third,” and “multiple reasons that will support my statement,” for example. These transitions and conne...

Hello, Durai, When you say “camcorder,” be sure to pronounce the “R” at the end. It sounds like you are dropping the last letter, and this can be confusing for the listener. Also, you said, “features,” but it sounded like “fee-uh-tures.” The “ea” combination is just “ee” here. As we say to children ...

Durai, Your pronunciation was really clear in this speech. I could understand you very well. I would be more careful when speaking the word, “chess.” It sounded a bit like “chiss” when you said it. The organization of the speech was really good, overall. I heard you use connectors like, “Let me expl...

Hello, Neha. I am not an IELTS examiner, so I cannot say the band. However, you can look at the public ban descriptors here: https://www.teachers.cambridgeesol.org/ ... iptors.pdf .

Hello, Joohn_123, Thank you for sharing about a beautiful place you want to live. Your recording was difficult to understand at first. I think a couple of areas you will need to focus on to improve your speaking are pronunciation and grammar. Practicing pronunciation is especially going to give you ...

Hi, Neha, Your speaking is quite fluent in general. You do not struggle with speaking speed or fillers like, “um” or “uh.” Your pronunciation is clear, for the most part, to a native speaker, although there are a couple of times when it can be somewhat difficult to understand you. This, however, occ...

Hello, Saravanan ps, Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your sister! It is always fun to hear about other people’s families. Overall, your speaking speed was good. Sometimes, I think that you spoke too quickly, as there were words that I could not understand at times. Your speech’s organizati...

Please upload a longer and better quality recording of yourself answering some IELTS speaking interview questions. I could not really hear you. Thanks!

Hi, Durai, Your speech was good overall. Your spoke clearly and fluently for the most part. You moved through the questions with little difficulty and provided specific examples to back up your answers. Your vocabulary was good as well. I heard “hectic,” “ideal,” and “cool-minded.” Here are some are...

Hello, Muxtar, This is probably one of your better speeches that I have heard. The number of “uhs” and other silence-fillers was significantly lower than in the past, and your rate of speech was good. You did not speak too slowly. Your organization was good, and you used some nice connectors like, “...

Hi, Bhanu, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and introducing yourself. Here are some thoughts about your speech: Your pronunciation was good overall. It is pretty easy to understand you for the most part. There were a couple of times when I could not quite make out what you were saying, but that m...

Hi, Muxtar, In this example, I heard a quick pace of speaking that perhaps helps your fluency overall. I still heard a lot of “uhs” and repetition of words (like “behave”) as you try to gather your thoughts. You speak in short bursts of a few words. There is not much in the way of smooth linkage bet...
