Thanks IELTSBUDDY!
by: Marat

Hi, everyone!

I'd like to thank this great source of knowledge with helping me to pass my IELTS test with great results (for me :))!!!

I took the exam on the 20th of February 2016. I've got results today:

L 7.5
R 7
W 6
S 6 - Overall 6.5.

It was my first attempt. This result is more than enough for me because I have never wrote any essays and talked to foreigners often (several times doesn't count) and i only started preparation 30 days prior to the exam.

So, to sum up, I saw many resources, but this one is the BEST! (IMHO)

Many of you ask how to achieve high score in a few weeks. People, it's impossible if your level of English is not high enough.

Download or buy IELTS Cambridge Test from 1 to 9. Or other tests. And go through it. You'll see what is your level and where is your weak point.

First you have to improve that points and then develop others. And if you are in 5.5 in writing or speaking, it'll be very hard to make it 6.5 unless you are a genius or have a good background in English.

The main point is P R A C T I C E !!!

As for me. Firstly I understood that my writing and speaking are the weakest. So I only trained them the most. In writing you just need to get the structure in T1 and T2. Planning is essential. Learn how to plan an essay, then it'll be easy. Make the plan in your own language.

In speaking it's the same. Just watch sample interviews, and make a list of topics. Just talk about every topic. It will be hard, but you will get better and better. Believe me. Don't think if you read or listen well that you'll talk easily. I thought the same way. But it was tough. I understood that without practicing I couldn't talk. So I just tried and tried.

That's it.

I hope that you'll pass IELTS and got your desired band score. If not, don't give up. "Water wears away the stone!"

Ok, guys. Wish you all luck and success!
Thanks again BUDDY!

From 6.5 to 7.5 with Writing.
by: Ashwini

I always scored 7+ in L, R and S.

But was consistently getting 6.5 band for writing despite 3 attempts.

Then I came across the Task 2 ebook on IELTS buddy. And finally in the fourth attempt I scored 7.5!!!

Really a good book to improve the score and for guaranteed success.

Needless to say ** PRACTICE ** is very important.

Thanks buddy and appreciate the efforts taken for the book.

I got 6.5 overall, as well as 6.5 in each criteria.

Thanks a lot buddy, I would like to give my gratitude for you !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wants to learn IELTS writing
by: IELTS buddy

Hi binita,

It's really not possible to give advice in a message that is going to suddenly get you 6.5 in writing.

There are so many tips and work you would need to do to improve - that is why sites such as mine are so large or that people do IELTS courses that can run over 10 weeks. There is a lot to learn.

So really all I can recommend is going through the lessons and tips on this site to see how that helps you.

If you are finding that you need more, such as your writing checking, then you would really need to think about paying someone to look at it (you'll find people online who check writing) or doing a face-to-face IELTS course.

Good luck

by: Anonymous

Hi,

Thanks for all materials, I got 7.5 overall that is really good but i needed three 7 and 8 for listening, for my writing and reading, i got 6.5.

Is there anything you can advice me or should i go through the same tests and samples and just practice more?

Sep 01, 2017
I got overall 7.5 😃
by: IELTS buddy

Glad you have found the site useful.

It's difficult to give personal advice because of course I have not seen your work so I don't know where your problems may lie.

But you only need another 0.5 band for reading and writing so it may be that you just need a bit more practice and you may be luckier next time.

If you have grammar problems with your writing that is trickier to improve on your own and you may have to invest in some kind of lessons for that.

EXCELLENT BLOG FOR IELTS

by SALIL KAMAT
(PUNE, MAHARASHTRA,INDIA)

Dear IELTSbuddy,

At the outset, I would like to thank you for this wonderful blog which has helped me each day to reach closer to getting a great score in IELTS examination, which I did.

It was my first attempt and I did not attend any coaching classes or any lectures, absolutely nothing; not even any mock test.

I got an overall band 8.0 with:

Listening - 8.5
Reading - 7.5
Writing - 7.0
Speaking - 8.5

The blog has brilliant tips and practical ideas with logical explanations at the required places; it is simply awesome!

My wife also scored an overall 7.0 under same aforesaid conditions as mine.

Once again, thanks a ton! And I am sure this blog will continue helping manifold test takers to come out with flying colours in the future.

Best Regards,
SALIL KAMAT

I was struggling for IELTS. I needed band 7 in each module, but always getting L 8, R 8.5, W 6.5, S 6.5. After 2 attempts just became frustrated. At this point somehow found ielts buddy.

Every page of this site is so useful. Gradually I realized my weakness and understood why i was not getting 6.5 to 7. After that appeared in 27 april exam. Got L 8, R 8.5, W 7.5, S 7. Its true that i worked hard but after that ielts buddy is the next to remember, gratefully. Simply my future changed with this score.

My feeling is that, Have i ever done such help to other's life?

May God bless you.

want to know the key to get 7 in writing
by: Anonymous

Hi, first of all, thanks for letting me post here.

I have no problem with listening and speaking as I got between 7.5 and 8.5 almost every time. But the problem is speaking and writing. I don't even remember how many times did I take IELTS and It's so sure that I got band 6.5 in writing constantly and my speaking band score was 6 earlier but now constantly getting 6.5 for the last 5 times.

It's more than 10 times I took IELTS and my writing score which is 6.5 has never changed since I start taking the test. I got overall 7 each and every time but never achieve individual 7. What I need is overall 7.5 with individual not less than 7. I don't know whats wrong with my writing and what would be the key to step up from 6.5 to 7??

The last time I took was in November,2015 and I got L-7.5, R-8, W-6.5, S-7 with overall 7.5. So I made a claim and ask to recheck my writing by hoping they would increase my writing 6.5 to 7 (just .5) but no changes happened. Just wasted recheck fees 93 bucks.

Sorry for the long posts. and really appreciate to receive ur advices and wishing all of u the best too!!!

Trying to get a 7
by: IELTS buddy

Hi,

All I can say is that you really need to get someone qualified (an IELTS instructor) to look at your writing and tell you where you are going wrong.

Assuming that you know what you need to know about answering the question and structuring an essay, it will likely be your grammar pulling your score down.

But to establish that for sure, and, if it is that, to find out the best way to fix it, you need someone checking your writing and advising you. Without that you are going to continue making the same mistakes.

So as I said, you really need some writing checks and advice to see where you are going wrong and how to fix it.

Good luck

Many thanks for all the useful info you have posted here.

It helped me get the scores I needed (6.5 overall and at least 6.0 in each part).

The first time I got: listening 8.0, reading 6.5, writing 5.5, speaking 7.0, overall 7.0, but by studying with all the examples here I managed to get: 9.0 listening, 8.5 reading, 6.5 writing, 7.0 speaking, overall: 8.0.

I still have work to do with my writing, but I really don´t know how to thank you enough.

Greetings and keep up with the excellent work!

Congratulations Arturo
by: Jorge Chavez (Queretaro)

Hola Paisano!

It is such great news that you have achieved your desired band score. I am currently looking for an overall 7.5 and it will be my first attempt on March 24th.

I am enrolled in a prep course, however, it is not as good as I thought it would be. I found this resource webpage recently and it fit like a glove.

I will work hard in my weak points which I have identified as Writing and perhaps Reading. I kind of get freezed out with brainstorming ideas so I consider I just need to find the way to tackle that preezing anxiety moment.

Anyway, this post has just helped me to both congratulate you and practice my writing.

Any tips or advise will be truly appreciated.

Regards

Hi,

I have passed my IELTS with required bands. I appeared two times before passing.I got my required band after requesting a recheck of my original scores. My writing section was a bit weak but after consulting this useful site I have learned a lot.

Thanks a lot for helping me and many other students. Every section of IELTS is fully explained in a very good manner.I have already recommended this site to my friends.
Keep doing good work like this.
STAY BLESSED...

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OTHER STUDENTS..

Hi,

would like to earnestly thank you and your website - IELTS BUDDY for helping me clear my IELTS exam.

I received my results today and managed to score the needed bands. I had tried thrice earlier but without success. I used to always miss on writing score.

Thanks to your essay techniques which helped me to get the desired score. Without your valuable help I would not have succeeded. I am sure many people have benefited because of your endeavors.

Please keep up the good work and I wish you greater success in the times to come.

IELTS buddy was just superb!

by Nikita Desai
(London)

Hi, IELTS buddy.

I just had around 10 days to prepare for the IELTS academic. And this site was just superb!

You provided enough practice lessons and tests to boost my confidence. Going through all the lessons, essays helped in understanding what was expected of us.

Appearing for an exam after around 8 yrs was already making me nervous, and that too in a foreign country was nerve wrecking.

But thanks to all the practice i got on your website, i could keep my calm and give my best.

I scored an overall band of 8.5 with individual scores of L-8.5, R-9, W-7, S-8.5

Thanks a million IELTS buddy!

No your result won't change. The only way to try and get a score change if you think it is wrong is by an Enquiry on Results, but there is a cost for them to remark it.

Can you please explain me how did you learn IELTS from this website?

I am new to IELTS, I am planning to start training by using this website, I do not know how to use this training Program by using this website, I want to know which Test should I Start first?

Do I need to finish any one test at one time or need to learn all Tests together?

Like for example, first I finish Training lessons of Reading Test then I start lessons of Writing and after it Start another test, or learn all together at one time?

Need help for Ielts Training
by: IELTS buddy

Hi,

I think it's really up to you to develop your own plan because everybody is different in terms of their level and what they should focus on.

If you are new to IELTS I'd recommend just trying some practice tests to get to know the format of the test.

Then go through the lessons which you'll find on the site. But I'd decide yourself, based on how much time you have, whether you want to just focus on one skill or mix them.

You may want to mix them up as it may be a bit boring just focusing on one thing.

Good luck

Ielts preparation to get good score

Hi,

I am planning to appear in the next month though I'm too in reading. However I haven't yet start writing only focusing on reading n listening. My listening score is too poor only 28/29 and reading is tremendously bad.

I need to get an PHD admission by this year. Furthermore, I am doing job so my preparation time is too short as well. If I wouldn't get 7.5 at least I will not be admitted. Please suggest me what I should do.

Prepare for IELTS
by: IELTS buddy

Hi NARA,

It's really not possible to give an individual advice like that online. You'd need someone to personally assess you to find out exactly where your weaknesses are so they could then show you what you need to work on to improve.

So if you are really stuck you may need to do that, though I know that of course will cost you.

Apart from that it really is just practice. You have to remember that it takes a while to learn and improve in a language.
