▮ Main Phrases to Learn

  1. Phrases to use when talking about your own experiences
    In Part 1, you will answer questions about yourself and your daily life. The questions themselves are not difficult, but be careful not to get stuck in a pattern with your answers. Using a variety of phrases to talk about personal experiences and memories will enrich your speaking and improve your evaluation.


2. Phrases to use when stating your opinion
Throughout the IELTS Speaking Test, you are asked to “state your opinion.” Relying too heavily on expressions like “I think…” will not yield a high score, so let’s prevent the overuse of the same expressions.


3. Phrases to use when stating predictions
In Parts 2 and 3, you may be asked about your future predictions. These are phrases used when talking about uncertain things in the future or things you cannot assert.


4. Phrases to use in discussions
In Part 3, you will have a discussion about the topic covered in your Part 2 speech, and you may be asked to state whether you are for or against something. We practice phrases that can be used while answering the examiner’s questions and expanding the discussion.


5. Phrases to use when comparing things
In the IELTS Speaking Test, you are also asked to explain things by comparing them. To properly compare things, be sure to understand the correct usage of grammatical “comparative” forms.


6. Phrases to describe a small difference or no difference
Try practicing with these expressions to add nuance to what you talk about and achieve flexible communication. In spoken language, such subtle nuances often play a significant role.


7. Phrases to use when asking questions back
The IELTS Speaking Test is conducted face-to-face with an examiner. The examiner’s role is not only to evaluate but also to assist the candidate in fully demonstrating their capabilities. Therefore, if you do not understand a question or cannot hear it, please do not hesitate to ask again
