    • My biggest weakness is in speaking and writing.As for the writing section,I am terrible at formal writing,so it’s hard to communicate thoughts properly when we have to compare/describe the ups and downs.It’s also hard to sort out the information in correct order and then make the answer interesting or give it the proper boost.In short, colloquial and formal languages are totally different.
      Also for speaking,as English is not my first language,I guess often I would stammer a lot,and then need to rearrange the speech in my mind.I am good with writing out the words,but while speaking it may sound like I’m a whole different person.I wish you could give me a brief advice on how to prepare for these two sections.I have already downloaded Cambridge IELTS guide 1-11 from this site,just is there anything else you think I could benefit from? Thanks a lot for running this wonderful site.
