“Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.” Earl Shoaff What are your speaking goals? When you think of the word 'goals' - what comes to mind? Here is my definition. A goal is a specifically defined positive result you aim until achieved with unwavering faith and complete determination of success! Thinking of this definition - how can you 'fit' your spoken English goal into this formula? It enabled me to become the best English teacher among 11 thousand teachers. It can help you too. Listen to the podcast here: https://www.italki.com/en/post/UgFhTvYeocVXKjjlLyHCGs and do send me a copy of your goals, let me be your accountability partner for now.

IELTS speaking fears What are they? Here are some students' comments over the internet: "Honestly my greatest fear in IELTS is the speaking section. I’ve taken the exam 6 times already since 2014 without hitting my target score of 7. My speaking score is consistently 6.5 throughout the exams. My nervousness really gets overwhelming with my failure. Just a mere mention of IELTS makes me cringe. I feel so hurt and phobic of the exam." Imagine this, right? As I said in the podcast, hard skills (preparing for the questions) aren't the only thing students need to prepare for. Mental training, calming down, breathing exercises, and learning to cool down are some techniques you can take to elevate your score. If it sounds new and you simply haven't heard of it, use it, and it will be a HUGE assistance for your WHOLE life. Dive into my harmonising meditation I did earlier to learn to relax more. https://teach.italki.com/creator/podcast/episode/21bdqywf50htlwezm7ax1i Be well and let me know how I can help you.

What do we answer?

What is the best way to 'fake it till you make it'? Fake it till you make it - IELTS speaking success! Fake it till you make it is an expression in which a person imitates the confidence or skills they need to succeed in what they are doing in the hopes that they will eventually feel real. Proponents of this idea say you can fake confidence and hope that, eventually, it will inspire real confidence. Listen to the recording here: https://www.italki.com/en/post/VE2Xjz0nLPJPxH1QN3vfEX Have you had that before? What was the event? Can you describe it in great details using English? I am sure you can do this, I believe in you and in your success! See you in my 1-1 private classes now.

What are the 2 myths that get students distracted before/in the process of IELTS speaking?? What are your thoughts? The answer will be found below: IELTS Speaking myths. We'll 'de-myth' two together! What is a myth anyway? A myth, a symbolic narrative, usually of unknown origin and at least partly traditional, that is especially associated with religious belief. Where do myths come from? Generally speaking a myth is a folklore genre consisting of narratives that play a fundamental role in a society, such as foundational tales or origin myths. Myths also come from 'imagining' what took place and forming an idea of it and then sharing it with others as if it actually took place. Of course it takes place in language learning and in IELTS speaking test. We'll look into 2 myths students generally think about when it comes to IELTS speaking tests, they are: Myth 1 - I have to agree with my examiner’s opinion (if I don't ... ) Myth 2 - My speaking duration was only 9 minutes long (instead of 11-14). (If it is to occur I ...) You can finish the rest. You can listen to my podcast here: https://www.italki.com/en/post/v18CMsTyVdj6eEKRQgKCFW Do you have these kinds of thoughts running through your mind? Generally students say yes, you can be an exception but listen to the podcast just to see what not to do. It's highly recommended. Enjoy your process and I'd love to have an opportunity to assist the development of your spoken English in IELTS speaking or a job interview preparation instead of teaching you the rulles, grammar etc. See you in my classes.

This is an unusual exercise. It can potentially impact your IELTS speaking score and job interview preparation in English. Do it with painstaking details. Slowly, carefully. I am scared to face a difficult question in the IELTS speaking exam. What can you recommend people who feel this way? What questions can you ask them to assist them? What can you do to 'move' them into a better feeling, a more confident state? What comes to mind when you imagine taking the IELTS test? What do you see yourself doing in this imaginary picture? Are you happy about it? What is missing or wrong with the picture? I hope these questions can help you and leave some clues for you to build yourself up and find your special power, as I did for my student. Here is the recording that can assist you: https://www.italki.com/en/post/EFYeVreUo3ksKsR4wT1VWD If you can't do it yourself, apply for my private coaching now.
