Vladimír’s Preparation Strategy ⬇️
↘️Before moving to exam strategies, we focused on improving his General English. The goal was to strengthen the base so that new exam skills would stick naturally and work in real test conditions.
↘️We also added 20 key grammar topics that are essential for IELTS, especially for Speaking and Writing.
Learning Steps ⬇️
🎊In the language improvement stage, we started with vocabulary expansion through the “Vocabulary for IELTS,” course, followed by “Phrasal Verbs for IELTS.” We used the 5-step repetition method: learning new words, listening to pronunciation, completing practice tasks, revising vocabulary, and applying it in one-to-one lessons with a teacher.
🎊 In the Speaking preparation stage, we implemented 18 targeted strategies for all three parts of the IELTS Speaking exam, focusing on fluency, structure, and confidence.
🎊 In the Writing preparation stage, we used a two-level approach: platform-based lessons and individual sessions with a teacher. Vladimír learned how to fully answer the question, build logical arguments, and use linking words correctly.
🎊 In the Reading preparation stage, we introduced a set of text-based strategies, including step-by-step text analysis, reading for detail, and visual marking techniques. This significantly improved both speed and accuracy.
🎊 In the Listening preparation stage, we worked with high-level C1–C2 listening strategies. Vladimír learned to understand meaning as a whole, follow logic, and catch key details instead of focusing on individual words.
🎄🎄🎄 Daily workload
Vladimír studied 3–5 hours every day, covering Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking, and general English. It was an intensive process where every hour mattered.
