<\/div>\n

Intrinsic motivation<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is vital to find something you enjoy.<\/p>\n

This is the only way to engage with it and immerse yourself.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a long road and there\u2019s so much vocabulary to learn.<\/p>\n

It can\u2019t be done as a mechanical task.<\/p>\n

Avoid lists as they don\u2019t help you learn words in context.<\/a><\/p>\n

He has studied research that block learning doesn\u2019t work.<\/p>\n

The brain prefers to \u201cgraze,\u201d learning a bit of this and a bit of that.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Step #1: Think past the test<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Getting past IELTS <\/a>doesn\u2019t guarantee you will be a successful English speaker.<\/p>\n

Students can pass the exam and still not be able to communicate well.<\/p>\n

You also must improve your overall English.<\/p>\n

The test is just one challenge, and you must think beyond it.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind your larger goals.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Step #2: Go with your interests<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Once you have the basics, find what you are interested in.<\/p>\n

You will be more likely to understand if you\u2019re engaged.<\/p>\n

Listen to podcasts<\/a>, read novels and watch movies.<\/p>\n

Engage your brain with what you enjoy!<\/a><\/p>\n

Challenge yourself, but also make it enjoyable.<\/p>\n

You must naturally acquire the vocabulary that you need.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Step #3: Focus on increasing input<\/strong> speed<\/h3>\n

Comprehension is the most important.<\/p>\n

Input is more important than output when it comes to language learning.<\/p>\n

You must be able to read and digest the language quickly.<\/p>\n

You need to be able to understand the first time you hear something.<\/p>\n

When you speak, slow down and take your time.<\/a><\/p>\n

This is especially vital for the IELTS Speaking exam<\/a>!<\/p>\n

When you speak too quickly, you make more mistakes.<\/p>\n

You also don\u2019t have time to think of ideas and vocabulary<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Takeaway<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Passing the IELTS exam is the immediate goal.<\/p>\n

Our 3 Keys IELTS Success System<\/a> can get you there!<\/p>\n

You need to be ready to accomplish your goals and dreams beyond IELTS.<\/p>\n

Improving your overall English skills<\/a> is the only way to do this.<\/p>\n
