I feel like IELTS is more of a game than an actual English proficiency test. They prefer to design questions to trick you than to test whether you understand English or not. Not to mention how expensive the test itself costs...
I would like to personally thank Emma and the team. I managed to achieve Reading and Listening 9 bands by just watching their videos and tips (also practicing a few sample tests). I achieved overall 8.5 bands. I really appreciate the effort you guys put to make these videos. Good job!!
Damn it, why are so many people hitting on her, I mean yeah she is all cute and nice but no need to post inappropriate comments on her video and be all creepy! She is providing an educational video for free to help you out, and is being so helpful, your feedback should be constructive and related to the video, stop being creepy!
+Furqan Ahmed My advise is to watch all the videos with Emma, regarding reading section, and you will figure all the nuts and bolts of ielts reading straight out.
I watch this video in 2020, and this is still the best video about reading tips in IELTS. I wondering why people stop commenting and may be stop watching this great video? are there any new video better than this video?
Emma, thank you so much, your videos helped me a lot in achieving 8.0 in IELTS. Your tips were fantastic, and they sharpened my preparations. Thank you very much.
@Esha I got 8, because I targeted 8.5. ;) Here are some tips - 1. Be very attentive during your listening test. It's absolutely important you keep your focus 100% to what they are saying. 2. Don't stop talking in speaking tests. Try to elaborate your answer. Try to speak as much as you can. And don't stammer. 3. Don't just write exactly 150 words for the 1st part or exactly 250 words for the 2nd part in the writing test. Expand your answer as much as you can. One thing I did in my written exam is that I answered my question from both view points - why I agree with the topic, and why I disagree. That, I think, is pretty helpful in getting good scores. That's all. My reading was 7.5 and I still have difficulties with reading. So, can't really help you on that. Take care and all the best for your exam. (y)
As I said already, I myself had a lot of trouble with reading. I think you can watch more UA-cam videos that provide tips on Reading. I tried Emma's suggestion of allocating 17 minutes in the 1st passage, 20 min in the 2nd and 23 min in the 3rd but this trick didn't work during my exam. If the passages are too long, maybe you shouldn't spend time reading the whole passage and only try to get the answers from the passage.
Hi Emma.. I just wanted to tell you that I just got a perfect score in this section and I was surprised since I usually don't get that kind of mark especially in this section so this video really helped me a lot. Thank you!
Emma, Thank you so much for your classes, your confidence really helped me to get confortable to enjoy learn about the IELTS test. My results was release today and I got it! :D once again thanks! it was because I used your tips when I was practicing.
Thanks for all the useful tips and encouragement in your videos. I just got my Ielts result yesterday with a 8.0 overall band score! I am glad I came knocking on the right door in my preparations. Keep on with your good works.
Hello Emma. I just wanted to say thank you so much for making this kind of videos. Your videos are a good help to improve my English. May God bless you and please continue making this kind of videos. Sincerely, Edwin Molina
Emma, thank you very much. But comparing with academic IELTS level, the examples might be too easy. If you could give us examples from past exam paper, that could be nicer.
Hello Emma, Just want to share my experience and would like to say that watching your videos proved to be extremely helpful for my General IELTS exam . I have got an overall score of "7.5" at first attempt (Listening - 6.0, Reading - 7.0, Writing - 7.5 and Speaking 8.5) . I could have done better but was not well in the morning and missed some listening questions. However, I would like to thanks for your great tips which are very helpful!!!
I find your videos very helpful. I will definitely follow your tips on my next IELTS exam. This time, I hope and pray that I will get a higher band score. Thank you so much Emma!
Also, I want to mention that reading score usually depends on the topic of the passages. Sometimes the passages are very easy and I could get 7.5 and even 8 or 8.5, but sometimes they are too tough and I do really bad :(
Hello, Emma I wrote the IELTS 3 days ago, and I got a band score of 6.0. I know it's not the best. I followed ur lessons, and it helped me a lot. Thank u so much!!
I thank the engVid team, especially Emma and Adam, for helping me achieve 7.5 overall bands (L-8.5, R-8, W-6.5, S-6). Your techniques of teaching is superb and enables a student to gain the maximum score. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work.
If suppose in the passage they mention "... Dogs have excellent sense of smell..." and the question reads as "Dogs and cats have a great sense of smell" what do i because it does not mention cat in the passage but dogs are mentioned.
Those examples are too easy...that can be solved from anyone.. not the relevant examples.. I know she tries to understand students just start studying Ielts ,but It would be better showing with difficult one..
Thank You Very much Indeed Dear Emma ! My IELTS test is This week hope i`ll do well , your lessons have been very helpful for me ! Thanks a lot again !!

This was very helpful, I thought I had it all covered but none the less you get cold feet the day before exam. Thank you very much.
Imagine that i've got 7.5 in writing section , 7 speaking , 7 listining . but 6 in reading ,, that lowered my score alot .
Bro what should i do to improve my reading skill.
the type of questions i score lowest on my practice tests. This video is of great help. Thank you very much :)
If suppose in the passage they mention "... Dogs have excellent sense of smell..." and the question reads as "Dogs and cats have a great sense of smell" what do i because it does not mention cat in the passage but dogs are mentioned.
I would definitely like to know the answer to that tricky question. SOMEONE needs to reply to your query ASAP.
Not Given for sure since the passage says nothing about cats.
Sam Smith how about false?
December Blue false
December Blue false
You guide me more than teacher of my institution that i go for IELTS practise.Thanks Emma
