Share some tips on IELTS

@Isyut may classification po sa Australia yung pinasukan nating school at course e...so kung nasa lower category yung school, mas marami silang hihingin na documents sa inyo at minsan may grade requirement pa.

Kung IELTS lang talaga paraan para tumaas yung points niyo, try niyo mag review classes...sa Niner kunwari.

@arlene5781 tip ko for reading, dont read the whole passage unless hindi mo talaga masagot yung questions kasi kukulangin ka sa oras. try mo mag scan. read the questions first saka mo hanapin sa passage yung answer. then skip muna sa questions na mahirap, go and answer other questions, balikan mo na lang. don't stay too long sa isang number, kasi sobrang precious ng time. it's important na masagutan mo lahat ng madadali agad kesa magstay ka isang question na sobrang hirap then maubos yung time mo at di na masagutan yung next questions. 🙂

there's a part ng reading exam ko na nahirapan ako so i moved to the next passage at tinapos ko muna sya then saka ko binalikan yung mahirap, at binasa ko nang paulit ulit yung passage hehe.

actually, sumakit nga yata yung ulo ko dun sa part ng reading na yun kasi ang hirap nya talaga (for me) paulit ulit ko talaga binasa yun hehe (i had time naman kasi tinapos ko na yung iba, kaya nakapag focus ako sa mahirap na part na yun)

hello po.. eto po yung score ko:

L - 8.5 R - 7.0 W - 6.5 S -6.5 mahina po talaga ako in expressing my own ideas 🙁

question lang po, do I need to retake the exam para sure mainvite ako? based on my calculation 60 points po ako.. kung isasama ko yung partner points, 65. Kaya lang medyo mas magastos at mahassle kasi need din ni hubby magpaassess sa EA which means mag-ielts din sya.

natatakot po kasi ako magretake baka ganun ulit score ko 🙁

if you'll look at the reports na nakapublish sa skillselect website, madami nang nabibigyan na invite with 60 points. 🙂

Advice ko sa reading.. Scanning first, then read questions, and then Skimming, then answer the questions. Tulad nga sabi before kailangan muna mag sink in sa mind bago msagutan.

Hello everyone. Been in a slumber mode for quite some time. Would just like to share my IELTS experience for the past 2 days.

In speaking, task 2 topic is about an odd job I think I can do in the future.

In Writing, to what extent do you agree/disagree if technological advancement has pos/neg impact on the lives of individuals.

My tip in speaking is to be confident (but not too much) and make an effort to speak even on unfamiliar topics. If ever you are asked one,think of answers which you can relate most to yourself (in work, family, hobbies, etc)to improve fluency.

For reading, i did a lot of speed reading drills. There are a variety of apps for those who have smartphones. It helped me build stamina and,of course, speed. Ideal time for reading one academic passage is 5 min only. At the end of the day it's still comprehension that matters. So practice talaga. Same thing goes with essay writing and listening. I can say there are really no shortcuts so for those who are taking the test in a few weeks time, you need to double your time reviewing. Kayang-kaya yan. Magaling naman tayong mga Pilipino kahit sa cramming. Hehehe

Yeah it's good @Jeebs brought this up. ...something we overemphasize..yung confidence...as much as it makes the conversation engaging (kung confident yung tao), we should also try to make it natural...huwag yung masyadong 'feelingero' at huwag pilitin ang accent kung wala naman talaga hehe 🙂

Ako s april pa yng exam ko pero kinakabahan ako lalo na s reading at writing ksi sa reading nag try ako ng mga sample exam ng cambridge at ang score n nkukuha ko isa usually half lng or much higher lng ng konti sa half so i am worried about this section, as per writing nman i would say it depends upon the topic pero medyo d din nman ako ganong kagaling sa writing... I guess i really need to practice and double my effort...

jenipet20

Same sentiments tau hunter_08 🙁

Ausbit

@Hunter_08 spend more practice dun sa mga types of questions na hirap ka, pareho tayo hirap din ako sa reading. sabi nga nila Practice...Practice pa.. Practice more... pero wag mawawalan ng pag-asa kaagad basta ginawa mo na rin ang dapat. One day before ng exam i-relax mo na ang mind mo.

Mababa lang din ang nakuha ko pero ang hiningi ko lang talaga kay lord kahit maka 6 sa kada module. regards and good luck.

Jeebs

@Ausbit is right. Practice talaga. Cambridge 1-8 are good materials. Sa reading exam ang ginawa ko kahit tahimik naman tinakpan ko pa din tenga ko up to the point na feeling ko ako lang mag isa nagttake ng exam.hehe. It helped me in focusing and understanding the passage more. 🙂

Hunter_08

@Ausbit at @Jeebs thanks sa advice..yup gnun n nga gagawin ko..at cambridge din yng reviewer ko...ako din pinagdadasal ko n sna mkakuha ko ng 7 ksi i really need it...thanks sa words of enouragement nyo guys...

jaleo

Yung reading exam, just mark and highlight the key points in the passage para madali siyang pulutin pag sasagutin niyo na yung tanong 🙂
