KITS’ IELTS tip/s of the day
FOLLOW YOUR FEEDBACK IN THE FOLLOWING WEEK
  • There is no pass or fail in IELTS. It is all about rating our of 9 band score.
  • That is, your English is either excellent or better or very good or good or not so good or poor or very poor or whatever. So do something everyday to make your current English language skills get upgraded to an upper level, say from 4.5 to 5 or 5.5 to 6 or 6.5 to 7 or above.
  • You may get your current English tested and rated your tutors. That is where you are going to build your English on.
  • Imagine that your English skills stand rated at 5 bands this week. The best thing you can do for yourself is to demand for a test after attending two weeks’ classes or completing full 10 working days or 50 hours of regular class and check whether your skills have gone a notch up at least, say 5.5.
  • If it hasn’t, there is something fundamentally wrong: either in the way you take up the lessons or in the way lessons are given. Go for an examination: an introspection, we mean, on the following grounds:
    1. Was my English the same when I came here?
    2. Is my English not improving, ANY BETTER?  
    3. Have I (not)  been following the instructions?
    4. What am I(not)  expected to do to make it better?
    5. Is it my approach that is doing me harms?
    6. Are other learners facing the same problem as I do?
  • These questions, if answered scientifically, will make you understand one that it is important to rate your language on a daily basis. All weekends need to give you a feedback on your skills. Follow the feedback in the following week. It will take you to a newer plane of English language.
