Overview

What this course is

Speaking scores usually come in below a learner's real level of English, because the exam room is a very strange conversation: one person asking without pause and a recorder running. This course works on both sides — the technique of answering, and the reflex you need when a question catches you off guard. Part 2 gets a chapter of its own: how to use the one minute of preparation, how to speak for the full two minutes without repeating yourself, and how to steer back on topic when you drift.

Right for

This course suits

  • Learners around band 4.0–6.5 in Speaking
  • Learners whose answers are too short, or who stop mid-answer with nothing left to say
  • Learners who know the words but cannot produce them when asked directly

Outcomes

What you will be able to do

  • Answer Part 1 in two or three sentences with a reason attached
  • Use the full minute of preparation to outline a Part 2 answer
  • Speak for two continuous minutes in Part 2 without repeating ideas
  • Develop an argument in Part 3 instead of answering yes or no
