Hey lovely people! Jay here. I’m glad this video is doing the trick. It’s an important one. Please remember that if you need extra help then check out our IELTS prep course at www.e2language.com - We have lots of videos in that course that aren’t on KZfaq as well as daily live classes, writing feedback and heaps more. I hope you’re all kicking some IELTS butt 💪

Just got my results L - 8, R - 9, S - 8, W - 8. All thanks to this great man here. Thanks a million, Jay. I followed your instructions to the T and ended up with this result. Overal 8. 5. 👍🙏

It’s 5 AM and I got my results!!! It’s an overall 8! Thanks a million every E2 IELTS member, you guys are the best!😍

Honestly Jay, you rock! Thats all I can say. I watched your writing tips video the day before my exam and did nothing else. Scored a 7. Just the tips and not the entire course. Crazy! Thanks so much!

Hello everyone, I got my general IELTS results recently and I want to tell you about my experience hoping that it will help ease your anxieties for the exam! My overall bandscore was 8, with 8.5 in listening, 8 in reading, and 7.5 both in writing as well as in speaking. Short history about my studies: I learned since I was very little, mostly on the internet by playing a lot of online games and having wonderful people correct my spelling, watching youtubers a lot, and generally browsing of the internet. Because of all my practise I have always been a natural in english class and I would usually do my homework on the fly in the classroom. For IELTS, I studied exactly 1 week (I'm quite the procrastinator), by viewing youtube materials and familiarizing myself with the test format, that has been the most helpful thing of all, plus the general tips given in these youtube videos! For example on the test there were instructions saying "maximum 2 words and/or a number". In the text there was to be extracted the fragment: "one million X", and knowing that 3 words would not mark my answer, I deduced that I should convert it to "1 million X" instead. I believe that knowing the test format, and the rules, paying attention to the instructions is already half job well done. My best and highest recommendation would be to still your nerves and get a good night's sleep beforehand. Because you will need focus, if your mind flies you can lose points really easily. I took 6 plant-based sleeping pills that night just to ensure I can fall asleep (I have troubles in this area). Do what needs to be done to rest well before! Also, the test was easier than I expected, some practice materials on the internet are really tough and tricky in comparison, I would not get worried if you don't ace the practice tests, you might get lucky still! So do what needs to be done to rest before the exam, I was serious and focused all through. Have only 1 hour wait time for the speaking test if possible, so your mind is still focused and well rested for the task, I put mine 1 hour and 20 minutes after and I wish I put it sooner. Have a healthy and satiating breakfast! Both my meals from the night before and in the morning have been similar, avocado with eggs made in butter and some smoked salmon! Also my morning coffee with no sugar added. I chose ketogenic meals before my test for added mental clarity, and it worked beautifully. I was ZEN all day. You will be at the test venue for 3-4 hours at least, you absolutely need a good breakfast AND a bottle of water (no cover), so you sip throughout it, especially if it's hot weather outside. It will help keep your focus I promise, so do not eat junkfood in your last 2 meals, I assure you it will help! I finished my reading and writing tasks 20 minutes early and I had time to verify my answers and have a sip of refreshing water! Bring more than 500 ml if possible. I didn't expect to do so well in listening especially, and also in reading (in practise I had 7 score for both in the few that I did), then I didn't know what to expect in writing at all since I had no feedback but I always was a natural writer (wrote poetry and good essays in my native tongue), so that was no problem. I only read a few band 8-9 essays and letters and familiarized myself with the structure, also don't repeat the same words a lot. In speaking I practised by watching speaking tests on youtube and pausing the videos so I can answer the questions like a real test. I focused on being more concise because my mind tends to stray off the subject or talk too much! Know yourself, know your weakness and correct it! In the actual speaking test I did not use many fancy words, only what came naturally, I also had a moment of not finding my words (couldn't remember the word "mayor" for a topic about my home location, just forget about it and move on from the idea, don't linger or worry even if you make a mistake!). Also some pronunciation errors I had for sure because living on the internet is not the healthiest place to learn proper + uk pronunciation, correct what you can but don't stress too much if you don't have time to literally relearn how to say every word before the test day. Be natural, don't overthink. Have a conversation. On the 2 minute task I'm fairly certain I only spoke for 1 minute because the subject felt a bit bland to me (talk about a movie that disappointed you recently), just make sure to cover all the points with a few phrases for each and say you are done and move on with having a natural discussion on the other questions, it should be fine. 1-2 minutes, you don't have to keep speaking if you feel you have no more words for it. I remembered a time when I rewatched lord of the rings and was with someone that didn't watch it and they didn't enjoy it as much as I thought they would. It wasn't a recent occurrence, it was years ago, but use your imagination/invent/act like this happened a month ago if the instructions say so! Be confident! I put emotions in my writing, it was a subject I could naturally write about and I had actual opinions so you can get lucky, try to familiarize yourself with different topics, from school, work, current issues etc. And for reading and listening just do mock tests they are really great! It's late and I have to sleep now (2 AM, told ya!), but I hope this message will help someone, I wanted to mention general body needs like sleep and food because it's my passion and nobody mentions the importance of general health and state of body and mind! Just be confident and take care of your basic needs first, and you can do it too, don't sacrifice what is basic/essential for one more night of (sleepless) study or so. I will copy and paste this comment on a few videos, good luck to all who read it!

Got 6.5 for a long time before watching this video, and now I’ve scored 8. Complex sentences were the key. Thanks a lot Jay.

Hey Jay and Alex, I wanted to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for the excellent videos that you post on KZfaq. Your strategies and tips helped me score an overall band of 8.5, with 9 in listening and 8.5 in reading, writing and speaking, that too in my first attempt.God bless you guys!

Thank you very much Jay 💚 I've watched all of your videos and I passed my ielts!! You're an amazing teacher, I couldn't have done it so fast if it wasn't for you and Alex! 100% recommended 👌🏽 my best wishes for you! Thanks again 🤗

Promised myself I’d give feedback after getting my results so here it goes:LRWS-9/9/8/8 Overall band-score 8.5(Academic IELTS First sitting) Writing this here to encourage someone out there. While preparing I used to get encouraged by other people’s results. Watched tons of E2,IeltsLiz and Ielts master’s videos.

God bless you. You are one of the finest teacher i have met online so far.

I can't thank you enough Jay. Your teaching is just amazing. Just by following your videos for IELTS Writing and Speaking, I scored 7.5 in both these sections in 1st attempt. I jotted down all your tips and simply executed them. The way you teach by giving examples is really awesome and that's how we get to understand so quickly. Thank You once again Jay. God Bless You !!

I am very delighted to let you all know that I have just received my IELTS score, the overall band is 7.0 (L- 7.5, S-7.0, R-6.0, W-7.0) I would like to thank E2 IELTS for its writing tutorials. I highly recommend this playlist, especially the videos about the structures of different types of paragraphs. I would like to extend my gratitude and thank Jay for his excellent guidance, which is totally free for us.

Dear Team E2, you're doing a simply marvellous job with these prep videos. I was extremely nervous about the speaking and writing parts for the test, and was well behind on preparation due to work. Nevertheless, watching your videos a couple of days before my test helped me immensely, and I cracked the test on my first attempt. Thank God and thank you! 🌻

I scored 8.5 in writing, Jay! I only have your videos to thank. Your channel is now the only resource I recommend to friends, and with good reason. God bless ya. UPDATE : I never checked back on this comment. Damn, that's a lot of likes. For those calling it fake, I don't have to prove anything to you guys but here are my scores : R 8.5 L 8.5 W 8.5 and S 7.5. General Module for immigration purpose. Second attempt. I have prior blogging experience but struggle with paragraph construction in writing and suck at listening. Jay's videos helped me with the tips I needed to overcome some obvious shortcomings in my approach to the exam. Send me your questions by DM. Happy to help.

Thank you Jay, I had 3 days to prepare for IELTS by myself and resorted to KZfaq videos and practice tests. Scored a 7.5 in writing, an overall 8 and owe a lot to you.

Really effective , you clear my all doubt thanku so much for uploading this video

It is my first time to comment on youtube and I want to say people grown up in English speaking countries are very lucky, they never worry about to be unemployed, it is important that they just don't mind teaching English to students for long time every day.

I am so grateful for this highly productive and helpful video! Thank you for this contribution!

You’re a very good teacher and honestly studying grammar makes my head hurt but this was so easy to understand

My scores were Listening 9 Reading 8 Writing 7 Speaking 7 Overall band 8.0 Always told myself I was going to put my result on here. This channel was very helpful in my journey!

I just received my IELTS result and I had an overall band 9. I would like to say a big thank you to Jay and the rest of the E2 team because all the prep I did was watch your videos. Thank you so much!

I just got a 7 in writing Thanks alot Jay , for your valuable tips and advice .. you are a great teacher indeed.

I used this video and several others from Jay to study and I scored an 8.5 band score on my first try. Thanks Jay 🎉

Thank you Jay for the tips in writing. I have been following your page for my preparation . I appeared for IELTS recently and got 7.5 at first attempt. Your lectures are really to the point and very effective. Recommended to my friends. Kudos to you!

Subordinate clauses need to be punctuated (when you start with one), which is missing in the first example. While some people will support the tax, others will be against it.

My favourite videos for preparing IELTS! I took the academic and aced it and now that it expired, I am preparing for the general exam as my immigration needs changed. Thanks Jay and great job! You've helped so many people!

Thank you so much Jay I scored 7.5 in writing And overall 8 Could not have done this without you and Alex ❤

Hi Jay!!! I Just want to thank you for all the information you have been providing through this channel. I was almost lost and confused by the ideas that everyone else around was giving me about this paper. I guess people complicate it which is not needed at all. Thankfully i landed onto your channel and i sincerely was glued to each and every video of yours. The tricks you provided helped me clear the paper in one attempt and i couldn't have done it without your guidance. All i did was watch ONLY YOUR VIDEOS and that worked :D. Thanks Jay, keep doing the good work. Cheers :)

Thanx sir for ur great support. I followed ur rules and tips for writing and i scored 7 bands in writing.and overall7. 5bands. U made my life sir

I just got my result now and I can't thank jay and his channel enough! All the tutors here are amazing and their videos are gold!! I got writing 8 speaking 7.5 Listening 9 Reading 7.5 (I panicked towards the end and bluffed answers.) Overall 8 I'm so thankful to you channel and can't stress enough on how important it is for every exam goer to run through Jay's videos especially the writing part !!

Thanks E2 for your help! Rushed my Ielts booked it 5days before exam and with only about less than 24 hours prep time. Managed to get scores I needed! Won’t recommend anyone to do it the way I did it though, I have taken IELTS 13yrs ago so I have an idea what to expect and I am using English language everyday.

I am grateful to Jay for his tips on IELTS General writing task 1 and 2. Despite having enrolled myself in IELTS preparatory classes in my town, I failed thrice in achieving 7 in writing. I was well above 7.5 in Speaking, reading and Listening. In my fourth attempt, I was awarded 8.5 in writing for which I am ever so thankful to Jay.

Thank you so much Jay and Alex. I got the score I wanted, after a week of learning and practicing your techniques.

Hi, Jay! You are really awesome, your tips will help anyone for IELTS exam.
