Tips to pass IELTS successfully:

Don’t delay your preparation!

It’s always effective to start preparing 3-6 months in advance, especially if your language isn’t strong enough. Try to do one section each day, for example: Monday - listening, Tuesday - speaking, and so on. Each weekend you can try to write the whole trial test.

Use the timer

Both IELTS and TOEFL have a fixed time for taking the exam. That’s why you should keep your time track and be ready to complete the tasks before time expires. The timer can become a useful tool during your preparation.

Try to take the IELTS test on the computer - even several times

It will help to navigate already on the exam. Trying to take a practice test is really valuable. This will not only allow you to orient yourself - what to expect on the day of the test but also help you to feel more confident and get the score you need. The last demos can be found on the Internet.

Use templates in your speaking and writing sections

Pre-packaged phrases are great tools. In the computer version of the IELTS, you can quickly type and correct your essay on the fly. This means that you will have more time to plan your essay structure, which often affects your final test score.

Don’t read a text like a book. Time is limited!

The trick is to not read the texts you are given in the normal way you would read a book. The hack is to only read the certain parts of the text that you think have the answers in them, slowly and carefully. Reading the entire text carefully would take too long!
