1
There is a way to get better at IELTS reading almost instantly.
2
It's not a hack, it really works.
3
Building your vocabulary and reading speed will give you the biggest improvements, but those take months.
4
What I want to show you today are five things about the test itself that you can understand right now.
5
And once you do, you'll manage your time better, feel less overwhelmed and start answering more questions with the English you already have.
6
Let's start with the official instructions and one thing written there which you should ignore.
7
Let's open an official Cambridge practice test.
8
The very first line reads, you should spend about 20 minutes on questions 1 to 13.
9
Basically 20 minutes on the first section, 20 on the second and 20 on the third.
10
Sounds fair, right?
11
Three sections one hour divided equally.
12
But here's the thing, it doesn't work.
13
One of my students, Maria, followed this advice to the letter.
14
She breathed through section 1, felt super confident, still had time left over to double check her answers,
15
Section 2 was fine and then she hit section 3,
16
the hardest one, packed with tricky vocabulary where you really need to read the most to answer each question.
17
And suddenly she was struggling.
18
She left several questions blank just because time ran out, which meant she didn't return to a couple of questions she skipped in section 2.
19
And all this resulted in a 6.5 from someone with great English skills.
20
And that's the story I see again and again.
21
The problem is, section 1 is always easier, section 3 is always harder.
22
And if you treat them equally, you're actually setting yourself up to run out of time just when you need it most.
23
So here is the smarter way to think about it.
24
Spend about 15 minutes on section 1, 20 on section 2 and 25 on section 3.
25
I call this the 15-20-25 rule.
26
And if you're quite advanced and are aiming for band 8 or 9, try this version.
27
12 minutes, 18, 23.
28
And see if you can handle this pace without making extra mistakes.
29
Because this change can potentially free up up to 7 minutes at the end of the test
30
so you can go back and fix those I'll come back to this later questions.
31
So the real win isn't just speed, it's control.
32
And trust me, when the pressure kicks in, those last few minutes can make the difference to your score.
33
So once you've sorted your timing with the 15-20-25 rule, there is another decision that can completely change your score.
34
Do you actually read the passage first or skip straight to the questions?
35
Many students and teachers think there is only one right way, but over the years I've seen top scorers use different strategies.
36
Take one of my students, Ahmed.
37
For months he was stuck at a band 6.
38
And every practice test looked the same.
39
He'd start by reading the entire passage carefully,
40
word by word, because he was taught he needed to understand the ideas in the passage before touching the questions.
41
And by the time he got halfway through he was stressed,
42
clock was ticking down, he'd start panicking and one day I told him forget the passage, start with the questions.
43
And at first he didn't believe me.
44
But after a few practice runs something started happening.
45
He started locating answers directly, saving 4 or 5 minutes in every section.
46
And within weeks his score jumped from a band 6 to a band 8 in practice tests
47
and a 7.5 in his real exam.
48
So here's the lesson.
49
If you can skim a passage comfortably in 3-4 minutes, reading first can give you useful context.
50
If that slows you down or feels overwhelming, skip it, go straight to the questions.
51
Plenty of band 8 or even 9 students do.
52
And starting with the questions when you know what you're looking for can save you a lot of time for another reason.
53
Let me show you something.
54
Here is a full passage and my question is
55
how much of each IELTS reading passage do you actually need to answer the questions?
56
Do you need every sentence?
57
Half of them?
58
Well, let me show you.
59
I've highlighted all the sentences we really need to answer the questions and the rest is just context.
60
Sometimes a whole paragraph is context.
61
This is part two, in part three there will be more highlighted parts, but the point still stands.
62
Not every sentence answers a question.
63
And of course you don't know which sentences you need and which you don't unless you know which question you're answering.
64
So the next skill I'm gonna teach you is really powerful
65
because it helps you spot exactly where the answers are hiding without wasting your time on the sentences
66
that don't matter and without jumping from one paragraph to another and back looking for those answers.
67
You'll be able to find your answers one after another calmly and in an orderly manner.
68
Believe it or not, IELTS test writers aren't trying to trick you.
69
In fact, they actually make the answers appear in the most logical order possible.
70
And once you understand the logic, the test feels a lot less overwhelming.
71
So here is how it works.
72
Many question types follow the order of the passage.
73
This means you read question one, skim until you hit the answer, lock it in, then you move to question two,
74
which will be further down in the text.
75
And the simple rhythm, question, skim, answer, repeat, can save you huge amounts of time.
76
Now I'm going to show you which questions are going to appear in order briefly
77
and if you want to learn more in depth there is a separate video I'll link it below.
78
So tasks that usually appear in order are true false not given,
79
yes no not given, multiple choice with one or two answers,
80
matching sentence endings, and most filling the gaps tasks like notes,
81
tables, diagrams or summaries, although occasionally a few answers may be swapped around.
82
So not everything is that neat.
83
Some question types break this pattern and need a different approach.
84
But even here the answers are not random.
85
The tasks that are usually not in order are matching headings,
86
matching information when you read which section contains,
87
and matching features like match names, researchers or professions.
88
For these the best strategy is to read the passage section by section
89
and try matching each part as you go so instead of reading the first question
90
you start with reading the first section you match it you read the next section you match it
91
and so on and usually you finish the task
92
and then you return to those parts you couldn't match the first time round
93
and you go through the task again and finally by the second round you probably match everything.
94
And one final catch.
95
Near the very end of the reading test questions 38 to 40 can sometimes ignore the rules
96
so be prepared that those last few may jump around.
97
So the key idea is this.
98
If you know which tasks are in order and which aren't you can stop wasting time flipping back and forth
99
and start reading with purpose.
100
And now, before we move to the last technique which every IELTS student should apply in their preparation,
101
let me share with you three seemingly small habits that can really help you in your test.
102
First, imagine you're almost done with the text and the question suddenly asks.
103
According to Professor Smith, or in 1953, if you haven't marked anything,
104
you're forced to scan the whole page from scratch under pressure with the clock ticking.
105
But if you've been highlighting as you read, you've already left little signposts in the text and you can jump straight there,
106
saving your precious minutes.
107
That's why highlighting isn't optional it's one of the best time-saving habits you can build highlight names dates theories
108
and places even
109
if you take your test on computer you can use highlights
110
select the word right click highlight i normally don't highlight much on computer
111
because it's quite distracting and it's taking more effort than on paper
112
but for these keywords i'd make an exception to illustrate the second habit, let me tell you a short story.
113
I still remember it vividly from one of my own exams.
114
It was paper-based and when the reading section finished the invigilator announced your time is up, put your pants down.
115
But the girl next to me was frantically transferring her answers and the invigilator ran over shouting pants down,
116
pants down and crossed out her probably five answers or so right on the spot.
117
Can you imagine?
118
To find the answers but not get the points.
119
So never ever save transferring for the end.
120
Do it neatly after each section so you don't lose marks you've already earned.
121
And keep an eye on your time.
122
On computer there is a time at the top, no problem and no need to transfer any answers anywhere but
123
if you take your exam on paper write down
124
when your section begins to remember
125
when it ends invigilators will only tell you how much time is left two
126
or three times throughout the test and in the test i took they only announced
127
when we had 10 minutes left and five minutes but it may differ from center to center.
128
And the third useful habit concerns your practice tests.
129
It's tempting to grab any practice test you find online for free.
130
Some even come with the official label.
131
But here is the truth.
132
The real IELTS exam papers are produced by Cambridge English.
133
And that's what you get in Cambridge IELTS books.
134
Even the other co-owners of IELTS like IDP or British Council don't write the actual exams, they just deliver them.
135
So their practice tests online can be slightly different to the real tests.
136
And those three random tests you see online are way off most often.
137
Too easy, too hard or sometimes just plain wrong.
138
And if you want your practice to pay off on exam day, use Cambridge tests.
139
Now what's this last technique every student needs.
140
You know, whenever I post a video where we work on a particular type of reading questions and practice together,
141
I always get some comments saying this answer is wrong, it should be B.
142
I love the energy but there is a missed opportunity here.
143
First, you won't win an argument with Cambridge English.
144
Second, you're not learning the lesson.
145
What you should do after each practice test is go back and analyze your every mistake.
146
Figure out why you chose the wrong answer.
147
If you didn't know some words, translate them.
148
If you didn't read carefully enough, do.
149
But get to the point where you understand why a certain answer is correct with every question.
150
The next time you won't make the same mistake.
151
Oh yes, and learn more about the different types of tasks and how to approach them.
152
Remember the questions in order and not in order?
153
Here is a video that can help you master this technique and get clarity and confidence taking your reading test.
154
Thank you so much for watching me today.
155
Good luck with your preparation and your exam.

How This One Simple Method Helped Me Get Band 9 Twice in IELTS Reading
IELTS PrepUniversity Students
पहला प्रभाव
इस वीडियो में, IELTS पढ़ाई के लिए कुछ बेहद उपयोगी सुझाव दिए गए हैं। यह ना केवल जानकारीपूर्ण है बल्कि इसे देखना भी रोचक है। वीडियो में जो बातें की गई हैं, वे असल में परीक्षा के अनुभव को बेहतर बनाने में मदद करती हैं। जब आप इसे सुनते हैं, तो आपको स्पष्टता और आत्मविश्वास का अनुभव होता है। इस वीडियो का मुख्य आकर्षण यह है कि यह आपको समय प्रबंधन और रणनीतियों पर ध्यान केंद्रित करने के लिए प्रेरित करता है, जो कि एक सफल परीक्षा के लिए जरूरी हैं।
ब Breakdown करना
वीडियो में कुछ वाक्य हैं जो सुनने में बेहद स्वाभाविक लगते हैं। जैसे, "15-20-25 नियम" पर चर्चा करते समय कहा गया, “इस बदलाव से परीक्षा के अंत में 7 मिनट तक की अतिरिक्त समय की स्वतंत्रता मिल सकती है।” यहाँ पर शब्दों का चयन और क्रम ऐसा है कि यह प्रभावी तरीके से एक विचार को प्रस्तुत करता है।
- संपूर्णता: "संपूर्णता" का अर्थ है कि एक विचार को सीधे और स्पष्टता से प्रस्तुत करना।
- समानता: "समानता" को बनाए रखते हुए, वाक्यों को जोड़ने से एक प्रवाह पैदा होता है, जिससे सुनने वाले को समझने में आसानी होती है।
- उदाहरणों का उपयोग: वास्तविक उदाहरणों का उपयोग करके, यह प्रक्रिया और भी सरल और प्रेरणादायक बन जाती है।
अभ्यास दिनचर्या
इस वीडियो से एक सरल अभ्यास दिनचर्या तैयार की जा सकती है। इसे "अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग" या "shadow speak" कहा जाता है। यहाँ एक आसान तरीका है जिसका आप पालन कर सकते हैं:
- वीडियो को सुनें और पहले वाक्य को दोहराएं।
- अपने रिकॉर्डिंग उपकरण का उपयोग करके अपनी आवाज़ को रिकॉर्ड करें।
- फिर, वीडियो में सुनाए गए वाक्य के साथ अपनी रिकॉर्डिंग की तुलना करें।
- यही प्रक्रिया दोहराते रहें जब तक कि आप अपने उच्चारण में सुधार नहीं कर लेते।
इस अभ्यास से न केवल आपका उच्चारण बेहतर होगा, बल्कि आप अपनी सुनने की क्षमता में भी सुधार कर सकेंगे। "शैडोस्पीक" तकनीक का उपयोग करते हुए, आप महसूस करेंगे कि आपकी अंग्रेजी बोलने की क्षमता कैसे विकसित हो रही है।
इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है | you've sorted · I've seen · I've highlighted |
| Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है | was taught · may be swapped · is left |
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
