👩🏻 In my view, it’s worth submitting an enquiry on results if these two conditions are met:

✔️ You only need a 0.5 improvement in either IELTS Writing or Speaking.
✔️You feel that you did your best during the test and don’t think that you are likely to perform better next time.

❓Have you submitted an enquiry on results? Has your score improved?

A former FBI negotiator Chris Voss actually insists that LAST impressions matter much more than FIRST.

It made me think about IELTS Speaking exams. Students often spend a lot of time preparing for Part 1 questions. I know that for sure because my Part 1 videos get waaay more views than any videos about Part 3.

Spend your practice time accordingly!

If you've suddenly realised that you're among those who don't spend enough time on Part 3, here's a video that can help you provide extended, coherent (or simply, great) answers that deserve the top score https://youtu.be/-yN3zoJ5LYw

Hi guys! Let's have a little test. Which sentences would you use in IELTS Writing Task 2?
