In this episode, Kev talks honestly about the common mistakes IELTS candidates make — especially when it comes to speaking. Drawing on a busy week of lessons with Chinese IELTS students, Kev explains why so many people are stuck at Band 6 and how small changes can make a big difference.

He covers:
✅ Why short answers kill your score
✅ How to expand naturally (without sounding weird)
✅ Why repeating words like "chocolate, chocolate, chocolate" won't help
✅ The danger of memorised answers
✅ How to sound more natural and fluent

Plus updates on The English Native, Kev's YouTube, and plans to help students in China get better access to materials.

Big city life

In the world of business, persuasion reigns supreme. It's not just about slick sales pitches; it's about influencing others to see your point of view, be it a client considering your product, a colleague on a new strategy, or an investor on your venture.

The core of persuasion lies in understanding your audience.  What are their needs, wants, and potential objections? By tailoring your message to address these concerns, you build trust and credibility.  Facts and figures are powerful, but framing them in a way that resonates with your audience is key.  Highlight how your product solves their pain points or your idea benefits their goals.

Different audiences respond to different persuasive tactics.  For analytical thinkers, data and research hold weight.  Emotional connectors, on the other hand, respond better to stories and testimonials that paint a vivid picture of the positive impact.

Remember, persuasion is a two-way street. Listen attentively to your audience's perspective. Acknowledge their concerns and address them directly.  This fosters a collaborative environment where they feel heard and respected, making them more receptive to your ideas.

Effective persuasion goes beyond mere words.  It's about non-verbal cues too. Confident body language, strong eye contact, and an enthusiastic tone project conviction and inspire trust.

Finally, persuasion is an ongoing process.  Be prepared to answer questions and provide additional information.  The goal is not to pressure, but to guide your audience towards a win-win situation.

By mastering the art of persuasion, you can become a powerful advocate for your ideas, your business, and yourself.
