SPEAKING
 Focus on fluency-Speak at your natural pace. Do not try to rush
through the text as it will negatively impact your fluency. Make sure
to take pauses at full stops and mark the commas and semi-colon.
Remember to raise your voice at the end of a question.
 Speak clearly-Many people make the mistake to fake a British or
American accent. You are not scored based on your accent so keep
your natural tone and pace. Raising your tone on contrast words, by
reading them in a slightly louder voice and falling tone at the end of
the sentence will improve your score.
 Keep speaking-If you realized a mistake, don’t stop! Just keep
speaking otherwise the microphone will stop recording after 3
seconds.

READING

reading, only 32-41 minutes, allocate the specific amount of

on when spending too much time.
 Grammar/Vocabulary! Expand your vocabulary and remember
the words that frequently occur together.
 Grammar matters! There are hundreds of rules, make sure you

 Practice makes perfect-Practice improves your skills concerning
summarizing, skimming, locating keywords and guessing the
meaning of new words.
