Re: How to get IELTS high band score in a month?
LS, I don't know about your exams, but to help with your spoken English generally, I suggest you find some subjects on videos in English that interest you, and you make a time everyday to watch and listen to them.
For example: This is the first in a series of three wildlife videos about some young tourists who go looking for the Siamese crocodiles in the Cardamons.
First just watch and listen even if you don't understand everything. Watch the three videos. Then watch the first one again the next day, but slow down, stop the video, and replay what you don't understand. Try to identify the words if you can. Do the same with every video you watch.
This video may be a difficult one because of the British accents, but you get the idea.
Whatever you do, try to watch something in English every day. And watch something that interests you, so its more like fun than work. This is only a suggestion. If you don't like crocodiles, find something else.

DL the videos and use VLC media player to play them, you can slow the speed down by 50%

Yes, I am studying with specialist, but they are very busy so they don't have time to give feedback to all my homework.Cruisemonkey wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2017 5:10 am There is no 'magic formula' for improving IELTS test scores. If you only have a month, it will take INTENSIVE tutoring with a qualified (preferably native English speaker) teacher familiar with IELTS.

Yes, it is true. I do some strategies, but do you think that grammar area and Vocabulary can be improved in short time?vladimir wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2017 7:57 amYou are making the typical mistake of concentrating on specific areas, especially grammar areas. Turn your home into an English-only zone, hang out with foreigners, read English novels and old IELTS texts, watch English TV, listen to English songsprahkeitouj wrote: ↑Mon Oct 23, 2017 5:05 am My poor academic words affects my IELTS test. I have a big problem with my reading, listen. I learn family's word, collocation and part of speech, but it seems very slow as I'm a slow learner. My concern is I'm going to take the test soon. Most of you are teachers of English. I wonder what are your strategies to help your students improve AWL and how to get high score in a month?
There is no quick fix, you should rather book an IELTS test in 6 months to a year...if you have paid already get a deferment until then, because you will probably fail. No magic fix.
Yes, I registered already and need to go back to the country soon.

The test doesn't test grammar. It test fluency across all the skills categories.
Improving grammar, without a wide vocabulary, won't help much.
How long do you have?

One month. How about word form and sentence structure?

Thank you, Taabarang. You have confirmed my suspicions. I am a doggerel, haha.
I have come to accept my weak attempt at impromptu doggerel, at least now, so it doesn't bother me.
Sometimes your best friend is honest criticism. :/

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.
Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.

Vlad and the Cruise nailed it.
I teach for the IELTS test.
Save your money and study for the time it takes to make a good stab at it!
Best of luck.
