International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a language proficiency test for non-native English language speakers. The test is conducted by IDP in India. It is designed to evaluate the writing, speaking, reading, and listening skills of applicants taking the test to migrate, work and study in countries like the US, Canada, the UK, Australia and others. IELTS Speaking is a formal discussion with the examiner, which happens face-to-face at the test center. IELTS Speaking is a compulsory section where the communication skills of the applicants are evaluated. Therefore, an aspirant also needs to know how to be confident while speaking when attempting this section.
The speaking section does not evaluate the ideas or information presented by the applicant, but his/her fluency, body language, communication skills, grammar, and vocabulary are assessed. This section tests the applicants’ ability to communicate and interact in an English-speaking country.
Along with all the obvious must-haves, one key communication skill that is judged by the examiner is the candidate’s confidence. Thus, speaking with confidence during the interview is of utmost importance and can’t be compensated with any other skill.
Applicants appearing for the IELTS examination need to work on their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary to communicate better and with confidence. The above-mentioned tips will surely help the aspirants in improving their English-speaking skills.
