Methods/steps
If you have one year or more preparation time, congratulations! You can lay a solid foundation, not only get satisfactory IELTS scores, but also provide great help for your future study abroad or immigrant life.
Words are the foundation of all languages, so boring memorizing words is inevitable. If you want to classify the words you have memorized, heard, read and written, I recommend Lu Wang's books. If you want to recite in general, recommend the little red book or green book of New Oriental. (The Green Paper is chaotic) Bian Xiao has recited the Green Paper for half a year, and the IELTS words are basically no problem ~
Memorizing words depends on perseverance, making a plan every day, memorizing a certain number of words, and paying attention to reviewing the words memorized before, otherwise it will be easy to forget. Read English books, magazines or newspapers when reciting words. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it at first, but with more and more words memorized, you can understand it more and more. Only by practical application can we really master these words.
The recommended time for memorizing words is three to eight months. There is no need to make any other preparations for preparing for IELTS except reading English books or listening to English broadcasts when memorizing words (such as practicing real questions and reading machine classics). ) because it's useless. After reciting the words, you can start practicing the real questions. It's the real question of Cambridge IELTS.
In fact, the order of doing the real questions is not very important, but the newer the questions, the closer they are to the current questions, so they can be done later. I suggest you pinch your watch when you do the real questions, and have a general idea of time to prevent the real questions from running out of time.
When doing real questions, it is mainly to master the answering skills and summarize the rules of the questions. For example, listening questions are easy to write in those places, and you will feel it if you do too much. And how to answer several questions in reading, whether to read the article or the questions first. Everyone has his own way. You can refer to the information on the internet, but the most important thing is to feel the problem yourself.
As for machine classics, it can be said that it is an opportunistic method, aiming at candidates with less preparation time or poor foundation. However, you can also look through it. Maybe if you are lucky, you will win an article. Of course, laying a good foundation is the most important thing.
Speaking and writing are two major weaknesses of China people. The key word is practice. If there are teachers and classmates of Luoyang Dahua IELTS who can help, you can show them the exercises you have contacted and find out the weaknesses. Shen Xiaoying's Ten-Day Breakthrough Series is also a good reference, but it is very difficult to memorize all the contents, so you'd better find out the key points yourself.
