I sat for the test Sunday 10th March, got my results yesterday with 8 band score overall ( R 8.5 L 8.5 S 8 W 6.5).. I was so terrified of taking the test because of high expectations, so I kept on delaying it... I was most scared of writing but thanks to your videos i achieved the numbers I needed. I think if I had 3 more mins for writing I would've gotten a 7 ( I didn't get to finish the 1st task) but I am happy with it for now... Thank you so much.. May Allah bless you and guide you in your life just as you have guided us through this test ❤
You're very welcome! If you ever need our help in the future, you know where to contact us.
how was your speaking and how u practice it?
@@simrankaur42424 i've been learning the language for most of my life.. since i was just a kid so i didn't have to practice much for the test in general,,. just watched the mock speaking tests they post on this channel, and tried to answer the questions of the interviewer before the test takers' give their answer.
Thank you Chris from the bottom of my heart! I just received my results! I can barely believe I got 8.5 - C2 level overall. I had taken the IELTS back in 2015 and 2019 and always got 6.5 in Writing. This is my first time getting 8.0. in W. I just followed all your tips for Task 1 and Task 2. This is what I kept repeating myself while doing Task 1: just identify the main trends and report on key features - I think I just wrote 160 words. For Task 2: I got the question: to what extend do you agree or disagree....? I stated my position plain and clearly right after paraphrasing the prompt. I tried to express straightforward ideas not worrying about using very complex grammar and connectors. I kept it simple and it worked for me. Thanks again!!!!
Hello! Guys, watch the videos on this channel and practice the tips, because I followed the tips in writing, and my overall score is 8. I am grateful to this channel, only studied for 10 days, watched some videos here, especially the writing part. The way Chris explains what is expected from an examiners point of view is quite essential.Writing an overview and completing all the tasks of part 2, do as Chris says. I am super grateful to you Chris. My overall score (L 8.5 R8 W 7 S7.5) an overall 8. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words and congratulations on your scores!
Thank you soooo much Chris! I had 2-3weeks to get ready for my IELTS exam and I promised myself to come back once I got the results! I got overall 7.5 (R: 7, S: 7.5, L: 8.5, W: 6.5). What I am particularly proud of is the listening! 🙏 You helped so much, especially explaining the bar charts and the writing tasks!
Woah! Well done!
hi, i will have my exam in 6 days, do yo have any suggestion? i am watching chris for 3 days now but i am lost! esp writing part makes me nervous and can i ask which video did u watched for listening? and great job by the way! you did amazing!
@@yase7430 For the listening part a lot of practice helped me the most! I did a full listening session almost every single day (I googled the old ones or I searched for it on youtube).
For the writing Chris’ other videos explained so well how to summarise a bar chart or how to build up an essay, e.g. what to write in it, explanations, examples, conclusion… otherwise I would have no idea what to do with those charts 😅
@@vivienbalogh6842 thank you very much 💗 wish me luck!
Thank You so much Chris for the wonderful work you are doing. I got an overall 8 (listening 7.5, reading 9, writing 7 and speaking 7.5) with less than a month's practice. Followed all your strategies and my exam went soooo well. I wasn't nervous at all and could answer everything on time. I even had enough time to check the answers. Thanks again to you and the entire IELTS advantage team. Recommended your channel to all my friends and relatives. Thanks a lot
Thank you for recommending our channel to your friends and relatives. Congratulations on your scores!

Hey chris I cleared my Ielts exam with your help in January, now I'm gonna appear for digital SAT exam tomorrow to get admission in my desired university. Not gonna lie I gave few mock text of SAT reading section, and your reading does works there too!!!. I'm so grateful that I can focus directly on Math section of SAT instead reading because I have a better grip of it now
Hi brother. Congratulations for your success. I want to ask you something about the Sat test. How many decipline are being examined? And what level of mathematics is required for that test? I wish you best luck in your exam.
maths is of 10th @@hamidshahab6904
I don't normally comment on UA-cam but I would like to dedicate time to Thank you for everything you taught me, especially your writing videos and strategy.
Today I took my first ielts test and when I got to the writing section I got surprised, unfortunately I thought I was going get chart graph but instead I got "letter writing" which I was not prepared for and instead of spending 40 mins on part 2, I spent 40 mins on part 1 and 20 mins on part 2
Wait 20 minutes remaining I dedicated my time on part 2 and I managed to write 240 words without a conclusion
I kept it simple and implemented your strategies and even using your famous "so what" technique which really helped alot. I am very proud of how I managed my time today( even tho I was under pressure) and I definitely have a lot to learn and improve from this. Again thank you very much brother and up the great content❤ You are a hero in real life 🙏God bless you
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that the videos, especially the writing strategies, have been helpful for you. If there's anything we can assist you with, please feel free to reach out.
@@Ieltsadvantage I will definitely recommend your videos to future test takers
I needed it so much, thank you mr. Pell!
You're welcome!
I'm gonna take the test in 3 days and this video showed up! Thank you Mr Pell!!
I will take the test in 3 days too!!!
Best of luck to both of you!
I assume you finished it, how'd you feel during the test? My test starts next month but i'm feeling so nervous already
@@lita9942 the reading and listening test were harder than I expected, they were a little more difficult than IELTS Cambridge books. Taking the test for almost 3 hours nonstop was exhausting, I think you need to be mentally prepared for it
@@denh7325 thanks for the heads up! i put alot of pressure on myself so i'll fix that lol
I have my exam tomorrow and I was searching for you video regarding task 1 . Thankyou
Break a leg!
I'm taking my exam tomorrow too. good luck
Good luck!
Thankyou so much
Same here.
Hey, i got my speaking test today, just an overview for someone who is preparing
task 1:
1-2 questions about my occupation (work studies)
map questions: do u em or not, how often, why, which one is better physical map vs digital
chatting face-to-face vs social media chatting
part 2:
describe a successful person(friend)
p.s. in part 2 i asked examiner to skip preparation (1 minute) time and start talking
i had been talking until examiner stopped me and said that is enough to say
part 3:
1st question: do you know any famous person? Ans: yes, i know many, but im gonna tell ya 2 of em
she stops me right there and started to asking more complex questions related to environment, society government,happiness and etc. i managed to answer for each of em, however i admit that i made lots of mistakes (especially grammar ones) but ideas were somehow nice
the last question had approximately 15 words in it, i barely could remember the trajectory of question
plus education, what kids need to do in order to be study well, the next one is if we do not pay attention to finances
Due to shortage of financial problems I can't able to purchase you vip courses but still I am watching you uploaded videos on UA-cam that's help me someway. Thanks Chris Sir
Hi there, we'd really like to help you join our VIP Course. Please send us an email so we can address your concern. You can find our details in our home description box. I look forward to hearing from you
Thank you so much Chris. I just got the test results with overall 7.5 (R: 8, L: 8.5, W: 6.5, S: 6.5). This is my first ever IELTS test. About month ago I have no idea about how the test format is, how should I do for each part and where should I practice that are reliable. I followed all of your instructions especially about Writing and Speaking, which I scared the most. Thankfully the results just surpass my expectation. I just want to thank you for helping me achieve my goals. You are trully a professional, the way you teach is so so comprehensible to me. Keep up the good work and may you continue to inspire and guide others on their language learning journey.
Well done!
I have an IELTS test,Day after tomorrow and I was searching the videos of writing task 1&2.. This video is going to very helpful for me.I am following only IELTS advantage channel videos.

Thanks , i have achived 7.5 overall with 8.5 in both reading and listening because of you

Thank you very much sir. Glad to have you as IELTS instructor for free
Thank you so much for your tips. I managed to improve both my writing and speaking by 0.5 after watching your videos. I got an 8.5 this time compared to 8 last time. Your logical explanation of the exam and its design is extremely helpful, keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻
Great job!
Hello, thanks to your videos I got a 7.0 in IELTS. Thank you very much!
Great job!
@@Ieltsadvantage I hope you will continue to help people like me. Thanks again.
I had my IELTS exams today. I didn't attend any special classes, though it was my first time.
But under the auspices of Mr. Chris Pell, I became overly familiar with all the tricks and strategies.
I'm certainly hoping for a Band higher than 7.
Thank you Sir! You made a great impact here!!
wish you good luck with that!
@@oildxcxre Thank you
That's great, @plantselect1366! We would appreciate it if you could share your results with us once they're available. Best of luck with your scores!

What’s your result
Hi Chris, I got my results back today for academic IELTS and I got 8 overall 😊😊 L:9 R:9 W:7 S:7.5. I only took the mock tests of ielts portal and watched your videos. They helped me a great deal. Im upset over my writing score but well, i got what i needed. Thank you for the free resources you upload up here.
Well done!
From where u take mock
@@Ammumaz when i booked my exam from British council, the system allowed me prep classes and mock exams
Thank you very much for this video, really helped me the day before my test.
Was able to get an 8.0 overall :)
Congratulations brother 🙏
Congratulations!
Sir your information about IELTS exam is very helpful for me, please create more videos about writing or reading and speaking tasks ...
Stay Blessed ❤
Thanks. Trying our best to get videos out as quickly as we can.
For anyone reading this and want to take IELTS! I highly recommend to just follow IELTS Advantage only. I scored 7.5 band just by watching his UA-cam video! Thank you very much.
Congratulations!
Thanks Sir. It will be fruitful for me. Tomorrow is my final test.
I am following your strategies for writing task. ✍
Best of luck with your test!
I took my test on 9th and I followed Chris lessons, I'm here to thank you , I got an overall score of 8 by watching your free videos , I can't thank you enough IELTS advantage
Fantastic!
Currently watching this amongst the other IELTS-centric UA-cam channels before my own IELTS test in 30 minutes. Wish me luck! ✨
Me too
All the best!
Thank you so much Chris. Its all because of you i got an 7.5 overall, with R 7.5 S 7 L8.5 and W 6.5. I guess i could have done better on the writing part as it might have helped me get my target score of 8 but i am quite happy with what i got and i cant thank you enough.
Well done!
Thanks a lot chris, I got my results today 7.5 overall. Your speaking lectures specifically helped me a lot with 7.0 in speaking. Many many thanks.
Well done!
In overview you cannot write numbers. It is prohibited said my teacher what do you say about this ?
Thank you Chris for the incredible job you're doing for us. I entirely consumed your content for my ielts academic test which I did on 22 and 24th feb 2024. I struggled heavily with time management only for the reading section where I scored the least. However I managed to score a C1 level with 7 as an overall band score. S 8 , W 7.5, L 6.5, R 5.5. Also it was my first ielts attempt. There is no better place to learn from that ielts advantage.
Great job!
Hi Mr.Chris, I would like to ask you about the overview paragraph in this video. I've always been told that when describing the data (either generally or in detail), the subject should be something like (in this situation)
"...the proportions of adults who did not receive enough healthcare in all countries increased..."
Would it be necessary to write about the Subject that way or we just need to write "All states increased..." as you mentioned in the video?
Thank you inadvance, Mr.Chris
Thanks for all the valuable info in these videos. They really helped me and i've directed a few persons preparing for the tests to IELTS Advantage... Although i wasn't happy with getting a 7.5 in speaking considering English is the only language I speak fluently, I'm grateful for getting an all-round band 8
Well done!
Chris thank you i got my dream ielts score
Excellent! Congratulations!
Tomorrow is my exam. Hope so it would be better 🤞🙂😊
Good luck
Hello. Computer delived or paper based? I wish you best luck 😊
Pen and paper based ... thanks a lot and best wishes to you too 🤗
How is the result?
Excellent video about Task 1. Thank you.
Omg I was being told that we cannot use any numericals in overview, but you are using them.
Thanks Chris, excellent video as always ❤
I personally followed some videos from ielts advantage channel to test whether is it true or not. And surprisingly it is totally correct. I did the same things he suggested i can get overall 7 (l: 7.5, 3 skills left all 7). Just only followed some videos from this channel.
I want to pay great gratitude to Mr. Chris Pell for very kind and nice youtube.
Congratulations!
Thanks a lot, I was able to get band 8 overall because of your help.
Great job!
Excellent video! I hope you can make a video about handling Map questions in task 1
What a great detailed explanation! Thanks a lot! 😍
You're very welcome!
Thank You so much, Sir. Your videos were extremely useful for preparing for my IELTS. I managed to score
Listening - Band 9
Reading - Band 8
Writing - Band 7
Speaking - Band 8.5
By preparing for just over a month. I can now proceed to apply for my further studies. God Bless You and Your Family Forever, Sir.
Regards.
Well done!
I got overall 6.5 with not less than 6 in each by following your videos... Thank you very much for wonderful videos..Rifnas from Sri Lanka..

Thanks a lot sir for your better advice.. ❤
Really helpful video, just a quick question though. Why show band 8 essays instead of band 9? Wouldn't it be better to learn from and compare to the highest score possible.
Thank you Chris. Always a pleasure to watch your video. My question is how to manage the 150 words required in task 1 while writing?

hey chris,i have a question. you said we have to mention only the key features.bt when i did this and i checked on website they gave feedback like this '' i didn't mention every parts of question bcz i wrote only things which was noticeable just like the key features. so i'm in confusion what i have to do? please pls response me chris
Thank you so much Chris✨ When i took IELTS 2 months ago I had a very strange graph in Writing task 1. There were different countries and their dayly use of something. BUT THE WEIRD THING IS COUNTRIES WERE NAMED by the letters of Alphabet. Like country A, B,C
What should we do in these cases? It was such a struggle for me
I want to say thank you. You are a great teacher. Your videos are good and easy to understand. Your videos helped me a lot. I received my result today, I passed 😊😊.

Hello Chris, I have a question about writing. Yesterday I took an IELTS exam, and writing task 2 essay's topic is below:
Large companies often use sports events to promote their products. Some people think this has a negative impact on sports.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
I'm good at task 1 compared to essay, so I decided to write report first, then when I finished it, I realized I ruined my time for essay so I didn't pay attention enough to read and understand the question, so I wrote in main body 1, costumers will get irritated because of heavily advertising and it also can be expensive for some companies, and in main body 2 is about financial benefits to the companies. Now I'm thinking that from task response I will get 4 or below than that, however even it was off-topic I developed my ideas, gave examples and I used some topic related vocabulary, and my report also was good I think it's score will be 6-6.5, so what do you think about my overall score from writing, can I get 5.5 or 6?
Thank u, watching u from Uzbekistan❤

PS: I got 7 bands just with the preparation of 2 weeks from this particular channel.
Well done!
That's so important for me. Thank you sir for your response toward task 1🎉
Why the word "BAND" is used for scoring purpose instead of any other term like grading.
I got 7.5 and the reason for that is you. Pushing ourselves on self study and cracking mocks with chris sir's guidance is all we need😅.
Great job!
Thankyou Chris. Using your tips I scored an overall of 7.5 bands in my Ielts. Thank you so much.
My detailed score is :-
L - 8.5
R - 8
W - 6.5
S - 7
Well done!
in your revised essay, there's a sentence " Sweden started with around 14%" I just wonder is that possible to write like this because i thought we need to write like "the proportion of ... in Sweden started at around 14%". I mean that's incorrect to write something like " The UK increased/ dropped ...." but " the proportion of ... in the UK increased/ dropped " right ?

Thank you for your supporting Mr crish❤

Good keep up the good work

What about the linking devices here? There are only two? How to increase this to band 9?
Hi there! Cohesive devices, sometimes called linking words, linkers, connectors, discourse markers or transitional words, are one of the most misunderstood and misused parts of IELTS Writing.

Hi teacher, I'm preparing for my IELTS test. I had bought numerous extra courses in PREP- (the IELTS website). Have you ever heard about this web?. Is it okay?:). Because when I do the speaking test on the web, I just use basic vocabulary and try my best to make it fluent as well as you had said before. But my score was really low:), just around 6 :). Hope u can answer me, thank u
And one more question is, what is the speaking website that you recommend to use ( it also rates marks -I completely need it huuhuh
I have my exam tomorrow and was searching for your video
All the best!
