The answer for getting a better score in your IELTS Speaking task might not be practicing more, but using a better strategy to practice! Introducing our new IELTS Speaking POV Series, an E2 exclusive developed by our experts in which you speak along as if you were on test day.
This video is a free full IELTS Speaking Mock Test from the perspective of the candidate, that covers parts 1,2 and 3 of the exam, with our IELTS expert Bailey as your interviewer. As always, we'll also provide a band 9 breakdown after each of the sections.
Don't be afraid to pause or rewind if you feel you need to! Remember, this is only episode 1 out of 4 of the series. But we definitely recommend that you have a go at the whole exercise without pausing to test yourself.
Here's what happens in this video:
→ Part 1: The Interview — short, sharp answers with Band 9 vocabulary (hint: "sprawling metropolis" beats "big city" every time)
→ Part 2: The Long Turn — the PPF Method (Past, Present, Future) that guarantees you hit the 2-minute mark without running out of things to say
→ Part 3: Two-Way Discussion — the high-level connectors that signal Band 9 to an examiner instantly ("From an economic perspective..." vs. "I think...")
📌 THIS IS VIDEO 1 OF 4 — WATCH THE FULL SERIES
→ Video 2: The Expansion Strategy — stop giving robotic one-sentence answers to Part 1 topics like 'Apps' (dropping next week)→ Video 3: Coming soon
→ Video 4: Coming soon
