Why the Speaking Section Feels Scary (But Shouldn’t Be!) 

Most students fear the IELTS Speaking test, thinking it’s all about perfect grammar and accent. But let us tell you something—we’ve seen average speakers jump to Band 7+, simply by understanding what the examiner wants. 

If you’re looking for IELTS coaching in Jaipur, especially with interactive speaking practice, you’re already on the right track. Now, let’s dive into the strategy. 

Understand the Format First 

The Speaking test is a face-to-face interview that lasts around 11–14 minutes and has 3 parts: 

1. Introduction & Interview – Personal questions (name, hometown, hobbies) 

2. Cue Card – Speak for 2 minutes on a given topic 

3. Follow-Up Questions – Abstract or opinion-based discussion 

5 Powerful Tips to Crack IELTS Speaking 

1. Think Fluency, Not Perfection 
   You don’t need to speak like a British news anchor. Focus on speaking without long pauses. It’s okay to make small mistakes! 

2. Use Fillers Smartly 
   Use phrases like “Well, let me think…”, “That’s an interesting question…” to buy time and sound natural. 

3. Expand Your Answers 
   Never answer with just “Yes” or “No”. Add 1-2 supporting sentences. Example: 
   Q: Do you enjoy cooking? 
   A: Yes, I do! I find it relaxing, especially after a long day. I love trying out new recipes too. 

4. Cue Card Practice = Game Changer 
   Most students struggle here. At Prep World’s IELTS coaching in Vaishali Nagar Jaipur, we train students with timed mock cue card sessions + instant feedback. 

5. Record Yourself & Reflect 
   Self-recording helps you hear your own errors and track improvement. We recommend practicing 5 topics daily and reviewing them with your coach.
