If you want to achieve a band score six in IELTS you must show the ability to talk openly and freely. You are allowed to make mistakes and are not expected to speak perfect English. It is OK to hesitate, repeat yourself, or correct yourself if you think you have made a mistake. You will be able to use a range of connecting words.

Let’s look at those three skills in detail. First, let’s consider connecting words. connecting words are used to organize thoughts into words. For example, when we speak, we might say “Well, I really like to go swimming. But…I’m not very good at it. I mean, I like swimming but… I’d really like to have lessons. What connecting words did I use? Listen again: “Well, I really like to go swimming. But…I’m not very good at it. I mean, I like swimming but… You know, I’d really like to have lessons.” 
Did you hear the words well, however, and you know? These are connecting words. So, in your IELTS speaking, be sure to use connecting words. I have to admit, connecting words are not always used, because students don’t know too many.  To be honest, I think all students should practice using them. I’ve always believed that connecting words are a fantastic way to make sure you get a good speaking score in IELTS.

Did you hear three more connecting words? What were they? Correct: I have to admit, and to be honest, and I’ve always believed. Next time you have a conversation with your teacher, be sure to use To be honest, I have to admit and I’ve always thought. To be honest, I hope you choose me as your teacher. I have to admit, I enjoy teaching English. I’ve always believed that pratice makes perfect. See you!

STRESS FREE STEPS

FIRST THINGS FIRST

In this episode we are going to learn how to talk about【doing something】. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.

在生日派对 At a birthday party（for beginner）

You've been working for weeks on a project and finally get it finished, but someone else takes the credit — what could be more annoying?

Nothing, according to a new workplace survey! It found that people who steal your credit are the most annoying colleagues to work with.

Jobs site Kickresume asked almost 2,900 people around the world about the things that annoy them at work, and they had a lot to talk about!

Around 85% of people said they've worked with an annoying person.

And annoying colleagues don't just make people roll their eyes — they actually affect productivity too. In fact, almost six out of 10 people said that having annoying colleagues has a big effect on their productivity.

Thirty percent of people have a problem with colleagues who complain too much, while the same number get annoyed by those who don't respect personal space — they always stand a little too close!

Colleagues who steal other people's food from the fridge are also a source of annoyance.

Another common annoyance is bosses who micromanage — watching every move you make.

So what can we do about annoying behavior at work?

Many people say they'd like to talk to the person about it, but most don't have the courage.

Instead, 32% of people said they just try to stay away from the person who is annoying them. But that's not always easy, especially if they're stealing your credit — or your lunch!

Experts suggest speaking to a manager about workplace problems.

But here's a question: how do you know if you're not one of the people annoying your colleagues yourself?
