I got band 8.5 in speaking without using any idioms. Just as Chris always advises, speak naturally and don't think about what phrase or tense you should use. You'd be shocked how well you'll do in your test. Thank you so much Chris for your lessons, they were really helpful.
Whoa! Amazing.
@Ritu Khan absurd
Maybe you got 9979 and 7 for lexical resources as using idioms is compulsory according to the band descriptors. But 8.5 S is already beautiful. Congrats!
@Jess Nguyen for sure, but what Chris urges students is not to go for an exam to show off how many idioms you have learnt. Instead, just focus on answering the question. Applicants most of the time try to impress the examiner with lr going run out of things.
@@Ieltsadvantage ı told you he is our savior . thank you chris ı hope you will get so much appreciation from our lord on some day
Don't worry about speaking exam friends.I didn't use complex vocabulary but I got 7 in the speaking module, it's really about the confidence when we speak.
Please how can I book the exam, I’m leaving in Japan
@@ndohcollins2050 what do you mean
Chris you have really been a great teacher on my IELTS journey I wrote the wrong exam in 2022 and rewrote beginning of 2023 got my results today. I got 8.5 in listening, 8 in Reading, 7.5 in writing and 8.5 in speaking. Continue the great work I'm forever grateful 🙏🏾
Great job!
What did you use to study
@@naijavibez4047 I watched Chris's CZcams videos and also signed up for IELTS advantage free courses those are the ones I used to prepare for the exam
Did you get these scores in academic or in GT?
@@sarabjeetsinghsaggu7326 it was GT
I got a band 8 in speaking and 7.5 in writing. I took IELTS Advantage's writing correction service and 1 mock speaking test. I also watched their videos and completed Chris' 3 day speaking challenge. Thank you so much to the whole IELTS Advantage team specially Chris!
Definitely recommend them. They are the most authentic IELTS teachers online.
This is amazing news, Sarah! Good luck for the future! If you ever need any help in the future, you know where we are.
Did you take Ielts GT or Ielts academic?
Hie sarah ! I would also like to take their writing correction service. If you could please let me know how can i also avail this facility
@@sarabjeetsinghsaggu7326 academic
I went from a band 6 to a band 8 just by watching your videos and following your tips! Thank you so much😊
What was the preparation time?
As a teacher who has coached heaps of students through IELTS, its so nice to see another professional giving the same advice I always do! So many students don't understand the purpose and marking criteria for IELTS. Just be yourself, speak naturally and don't try to sound like a textbook memorising robot. That's the trick!
Top-notch pieces of advice I've ever heard of the IELTS speaking. Hats off to you, Chris.
Thank you for making this videos and revealing the truth. I used to memorize idioms and phrases and actually used about 7 idioms on my test day which I learned from online "gurus " and I got 6 at speaking but now I'm trying to be natural and learning everything from native speakers like watching TV series and stuff like that. I really appreciate this and other his videos as well, thanks again 💜
Absolutely an eye opening for everyone who is appearing for ielts speaking exam...
Well-done Chris.... You demolished all wrong myths and misconceptions among ielts gurus and youtubers in a logical way. Your teachings does work. Well-done again.
Thank you Chris for making these videos. You are the best online teacher.
an honest teacher who not only teaches how to avoid pitfall but also shows the tips to get high scores in the IELTS. I've benefited a lot from your video! thanks!!!
Absolutely agree with everything you have covered here. It’s so painful to learn about other content creators who give crappy advice. I don’t plan on creating content but as an IELTS tutor myself I’m constantly having to get my students to “un-learn” shitty habits they have learned from CZcams! Thank you for this video 🎉❤
Yeah , the institution to which i go to is just like these teachers mentioned in the video . They tell me to use connectors , idioms , use formal language and memorise some phrases
You are an excellent teacher Chris you always boost our confidence without giving any fake motivation .
You're one of the most reliable teachers, constantly myth-busting misinformation about IELTS, and it's well appreciated. I've been looking around your videos on Speaking-my weakness-and took the test last Saturday, got an 8.5. Can confirm the common belief of "You can't get a band 9 if you don't have an American/British accent" is false! Thank you. I managed to score that high with barely any idiomatic language, how astonishing. You've probably seen thousands of other thank you messages, but I can't help but show my gratitude! 💝
Amazing news! Congratulations! We put so much work into making the best, free resources for students and we are always delighted when they let us know that the materials worked for them. Good luck for the future!
Bro even though I have already passed my IELTS and currently in my dream country I am addicted to his videos and still see them and have recommended my sister too. Thanks Chris
Thanks for your support. If there's anything else our team can do to help you, please feel free to contact us.
I've taken my IELTS exam yesterday😭...I'll tell you the result after 13 days wish me luccckkkk 😩❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations on completing your IELTS exam! Please keep us updated on the results.
Im waiting for your result, btw did you take IDP or BRITISH COUNCIL
@@IeltsadvantageHello, what do you think which is better IDP or BRIT COUNCIL? Could u advise me please
GG IDP IS BETTER@@SurprisedCaptainHat-eh3oo
What was your score?
I'm 25 minutes away from my speaking test. Thank you
Whoa! Talk about leaving it to the last minute :)
I've watched all your videos and I subscribed to your free fundamental course. I have also done the samples provided in the course and gotten feedback. I think I'll be okay.
@@Mylove_Mkm how was it? What’s your topic?
How did it go brother?
How was your exam can you say that briefly please?
I’m a VIP student of Chris’ Ielts advantages…I’ve learned so much from his classes…he and his team of teachers are amazing…this video is another gem of his!!!! Thank you so much
You're most welcome, Tatiana. If you need any help, you know where we are.
U r simply legend . The free lesson which u give us is far far way better than any of others paid courses ❤️
I really love the way you " logically guide" I have been obsessed with these so called teachers before registering your course.
Such a tremendous session as usual. This has precisely cleared my misconceptions about IELTS sold out by unprofessional teachers.
The best teacher out there! Truth, simplicity, positivity. Thank you, Chris, sir!
The best instructor for IELTS exam
Importance of your lessons is unexplainable... I'm truly grateful to you sir...God bless you..
Your videos are certainly beneficial. Many teachers force students to use complex and compound sentences to score high in speaking. Sir, you're saviour✨️
Chris your advise and videos helped a lot in my IELTS speaking, just watched your free content here, thank you and keep it up! I highly recommend IELTS Advantage.
Focus on marking criteria, not eye contact, body language, or anything else. Use slang, words, phrase verbs, and idioms in an appropriate, native way. Learn lists of vocabularies and use it on test day only if you can normally use it in daily life. Do not try to memorize common topics and questions, the IELTS test is the test for your ability to use English in daily life, in any conversation, any situation, not for a fixed situation, and the test examiners is trained to recognize what is native or not....
Greatly simplified thank you Chris
Best IELTS teacher in the world thank you sir 🥰🥰😊
Your videos are truly professional and useful. I cannot thank you enough for doing this.
Thank you for these videos, bro ❤ they are giving me very good training before taking the IELTS test.

Thank you so much Chris. Very helpful and straightforward. I'm very happy to be a follower of your channel. Please keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Reliable advice is priceless.
Hello Chris, actually your help is really huge in terms of sorting out all these "fancy" stuff here on CZcams on ielts related topics.I really appreciate you efforts, I found them really really useful.
Happy to help!
You are genuine teacher in IELTS. I am very crossed about the Google or youtube promotes fake or so-called IELTS teachers. It's very disappointed. It's hard to find a genuine teacher like you. It's shameful that Google and youtube algorithm. They are playing students life
Dear Chris, my respect and love for you has increased far away for really helping me out with this video. I was going through undescribable mental pressure regarding every single topic that you have finely discussed in your video 😇 we are truly blessed to have a wonderful mentor like you on CZcams. Lots of good wishes for you and your family ❤
Thank you, Raisa! If you have any questions or need our team to help you prepare for your exam, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you so so so much. This is a real eye-opener. I used to think idiomatic language means idioms and I'm about to take the test soon. This is without a doubt by far the best content on CZcams about IELTS. I have learnt so much from you and I can't thank you enough for all that.
You are most welcome, Abu. If there's anything else we can help you with, please feel free to reach out.
Bro You almost took all of your competition videos and gave clarity 😮
thank you Chris! i have been following you and watched almost all of your videos. i clearly understand each of your point.

Sir not only you are an amazing teacher but also super honest.
This is pure gold, thank you!!
im not an ex-examiner but i'm glad these were the tips that i gave my students .
I really got all I needed to ace my IELTS speaking test from your video before was scared but now you've built up my confidence. Thanks
You are most welcome!
Thanks, i believe i will come back with my own testimony .
Dear Chris,
Your video had stumbled upon my feed at literally D-1 of my test, and I had applied your tips about idioms, part 2 test, as well as "see your tester as casual friend". They helped me a lot, especially increasing my confidence and keeping myself in talk, non-stop.
I got band 7 speaking (0.5 higher than my prediction test), and the topics were far more casual than the online sites are. Thank you very much 🙏
Well done! If you ever need our help in the future, please feel free to reach out.
where are you from ???
you might did(made) some mistakes you should have gotten / got 8+ if you are from a english speaking country and i can see your writing is very well too -
This channel is GOLD
Very useful information, now I know the areas where I need to work on. Thank you
It's absolutely worthwhile to watch your videos because you make videos based on official inscription rather than exaggeration or impractical scenarios. However, I wholeheartedly appreciate your efforts that you are giving for million of students who are being benefited. Thank you again!
those information that i've been looking for, thanks a million ,Chris!🔥
Thanks God I found this channel. I'm just now starting to prepare for IELTS.❤

Did u get it?
Got my results today and i have band 8 in speaking. These simple tips here got me there. Thank you Chris.
Great job!
God bless you, your channel has been one of my main tools for this exam. I trust you🙏
you are honest and great teacher since i been watching your vedios ielts seems to be easy now thanks a lot
It's my pleasure
This was such a great video, thank you so much for making this! such a massive confidence booster 🤞
You're so welcome!
Thank you for putting this out Chris.
Watching this actually boost my morale. I can speak fluently with my friends and every new person i meet but at times i feel my English are too simple when i see people using big words. I've tried to improve the same way but I'm always afraid of messing up the whole sentence . So i learn to use my words better and watch out for my use of past,present and future tense instead. Also make sure my spellings are always correct . So i google big vocabularies i see just to know the meaning and incase i come across or hear them somewhere. But when its time to speak i speak naturally. I hope this idea is better ???
Undoubtedly, you are the best instructor for IELTS Learners.
You are a good teacher Chris. I respect you for your honesty. The 3 steps lesson on WRITING was very useful. Thanks for the clarity. I don't get why you took your videos off CZcams.
Deadlines motivate people to take action.
Thanks for the compliments.
If we can help in any way, please let me know.
Hi Chris. I just got my result. With less than a month for preparation, I watched your videos, enrolled in your free course and do a lot of practice on writing and reading. Overall, I got 7. Thank you for your videos.
Great job!
Hi sufiraas
Hi Mr. Chris.. the explanation given was very graceful.. God Bless You..
you are the best in teaching IELTS, I have ever listened
I'm subscriber of those guru's and I always thought remembering buch of phrases and idioms is the key to achieve above band 7 but now my eyes are open and I'm less panic than before.You really teaches me so many things in this one video, this is really gem for student like me who is struggling in speaking. I'm grateful that I knew you before my exam. 💜😊
If anyone from you people want to achieve a good score in Ilets exam just do things naturally that’s it. This is a only tip Chris always give in their all videos. ‘Keep it simple’ as much as possible.
Thank you for such an in-depth explanation of the misunderstanding and how the speaking test truly worked. This video makes my speaking practice get easier

Hey Chris. I had been preparing for the test for the last 6 months and I came across your channel just a month before my test. I have gone through several ielts videos before, but your contents have proven to be the most efficient. I just got my results: L-7.5 R-8.5 W-6.5 S-8.5 (Band 8)
Thank you so much.
Great job!
How 8.5 in speaking
@@alittlewolf8637 I tried to speak as naturally as possible. I spoke on topic. Didn’t have to use idioms. Most importantly i didn’t panic before the test. I stayed relaxed. I even repeated some less common words using synonyms.
@@nazifanawar6464 are u native speaker?
If not, how much time did you take to improve your fluency?
I only have fluency problem because I forget words, and this takes time to recall the words, which affects my fluency
@@nazifanawar6464 I think of recording my speaking, but that looks boring to listen to your voice
Is there any way to improve fluency?
Your videos are outstanding.
Glad you think so!
Great! I wanted to hear that from somebody. I really agree with you. Thanks a lot!
It’s a really nice video you've made. I always tell ielts candidates to imagine examiners as their students and think that when speaking they must believe that they are the best speakers in the world. I also tell an ielts examinee to speak naturally rather than using too many phrases as they might make idiotic expression instead of idiomatic one. And thanks to you as I learned that body language is not essential in speaking test.
You're most welcome, Jahid. We're glad you find this lesson helpful. If you have any further questions or need our team to help you prepare for your exam, please feel free to contact us.
I'm preparing myself to sit for ielts exam and I took part in Ielts exam back in October 8 in 2022 but only managed to get 6.5. I wasn’t happy about the outcome as I wish to get higher band score. Tell me how I can get 8.5/9 overall band score.
Dear teacher. I'm proud of you :) one of the best tips for me is to be simple and flexibility. I don't want to use so much old idioms, use at least one or two. But synonyms are very, very beneficial. I will recommend it for each of you. :)😄😊😊😊 :) Chris thanks.

But how can I smile when I speak like that even in my native language?! I have speaking exam soon Thank you so much!! You gave me confidence))
