IE 14: How to Take Notes Like a Pro on Speaking Part 2 of the IELTS

Click here to get 7 Easy Steps to a 7 or Higher on IELTS Are you nervous about talking for two minutes in speaking section 2 of the IELTS? Today, get some note taking strategies you can use to ace the IELTS speaking section! In the IELTS speaking part 1, the examiner asks you about three topics. But in part 2 you are given a single topic card. No matter what this topic is, you cannot change it. You have one minute to prepare to speak for two full minutes. How you spend that minute is important. Because you will have such a specific topic, and such a short amount of time, it’s probably best to write everything you can think of about the topic. You could do this in a bullet list, or as a mind map. But you need to have enough to say for those two minutes. If you do not have practice brainstorming like this, you may want to practice. Use a topic from a newspaper as an example. Give yourself a minute (or more) to make a list of notes on the topic. Then, see if you can use them to speak for two minutes. Other tips: Practice brainstorming/note-taking every day if possible. You’re training your brain for thinking, speaking and writing in English. Take all of these notes in English, not your native language! Ideally, your notes will provide you enough to tell a story. Telling a story will enable you to speak for the full two minutes, and help you remain coherent. Do you have much experience brainstorming? How do you think it would go for the IELTS speaking section part 2? Let us know in the comments section below! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
