Hello! Achieving a band score of 7 in the IELTS speaking test is definitely a challenging but achievable goal for students. To help you reach this target, here are some tips and strategies to consider:


1. Practice regularly: Consistent practice is key to improving your speaking skills. Try to engage in daily conversations in English, watch English movies or TV shows, and listen to English podcasts to enhance your speaking abilities.


2. Familiarize yourself with the test format: Make sure you understand the structure of the IELTS speaking test, including the types of questions asked in each part. Practice speaking on a variety of topics to build your confidence.

Ciao, buongiorno, buon lunedì primo giorno di luglio.
Non volevo fare il podcast questa settimana, ma poi non ho resistito.
E semplicemente ho inziato a parlare.
E questo è il risultato.
Non c’è la trascrizione.
Non ci sono esercizi.
Per un momento mi sono sentita una speaker radiofonica.
Ma ci sono delle espressioni carine - “NON FATE I VAGHI”.
E la nuova parola è NEGHITTAGGINE.
Vi abbraccio virtualmente tutti e so che festeggerete un po’ con me.

Pratar om stora städer och paniken av att trängas med hur många människor som helst, jag bor just nu i en liten stad och reste till Melbourne i helgen. Fick en chock av hur många människor som lever där. Varför vill så många människor bo i stora städer? Jag pratar om att jag inte kan förstå hur man kan välja att bo så. Hoppas för framtiden det blir mer populärt med mindre städer, både för miljön, hälsan och för människors frid i sinnet.
