IELTS Speaking Lesson:

Lesson Focus:
This lesson is designed to develop students' speaking skills for the IELTS exam. It is ideal for intermediate students (B1-B2) who are preparing for IELTS and want to improve their fluency, pronunciation, and ability to express ideas clearly.

Teaching Style:
The teaching approach is communicative and student-centered, with a focus on maximizing student talk time. The aim is to simulate the IELTS Speaking Test environment and provide students with ample practice responding to real exam-style questions. The teacher acts as a facilitator, guiding discussions, correcting errors when necessary, and offering feedback to build confidence.

Speaking Test Format

• Part 1: Personal questions (4-5 minutes).
• Part 2: Individual long turn (3-4 minutes) where students speak on a topic for 1-2 minutes after 1 minute of preparation.
• Part 3: Discussion (4-5 minutes), where the student answers more abstract questions related to the topic in Part 2.

• Teacher’s Role: Briefly explain each part and give examples of common question types. Engage students with examples, asking them to brainstorm answers to an easy question from Part 1.
  
  **Mock Tests can also be scheduled for students who want to practice in "real life" situations**
  
  

  This lesson is best suited for intermediate (B1-B2) learners who have basic communication skills but need to develop more advanced speaking strategies to handle the demands of the IELTS exam. It provides ample speaking time and focuses on exam-specific skills such as answering questions fluently, expanding on ideas, and engaging in discussions.
