2 IELTS SPEAKING TIPS in Part 1,2 and 3. You might be nervous about taking your IELTS Speaking test, but with these 3, and plenty of practice, you will be well on your way to building your confidence and getting the IELTS band score you need. For both IELTS on paper and IELTS on computer, the face-to-face Speaking test is made up of three parts. By understanding what happens in these three parts of the Speaking test, you will be better prepared. Tip 1: Don't memorise answers Don't memorise answers, especially in Part 1. Memorised language doesn't give the examiner an accurate measure of your English-language skills. The examiner will be able to tell if you have memorised your answers and this may influence your final band score. Tip 2: Don't use big and unfamiliar words You may want to impress the examiner with big and complex words in your Speaking test. But to be safe, avoid using words you are not familiar with. There is a higher chance of making mistakes by either mispronouncing words or using them in the wrong context. Mistakes can affect your final band score. Use a range of vocabulary that you know which is relevant to the topic being discussed. Look at different topics, make vocabulary lists or mind maps to help you learn more words and phrases connected to these topic areas. There are more tios but the goal is start noting these small details about you and working through them with a teacher to help you develop a new habit.
