The first is\u00a0<strong>Fluency and Coherence<\/strong>. This means how easily and clearly you are able to speak. The second is\u00a0<strong>Lexical Resource<\/strong>, which concerns your vocabulary. Of course, another assessment criteria is\u00a0<strong>Pronunciation<\/strong>, where stress, intonation, and saying words correctly are important. The fourth of the assessment criteria is\u00a0<strong>Grammar<\/strong>. As you may have noticed in the IELTS public scoring\u00a0guide, for higher marks in grammar you will need to do well in several areas. You\u2019ll need to have a mix of complex, compound, and simple sentences. You\u2019ll need to apply the right tenses and word forms in the right situations. You\u2019ll need to be accurate. And finally, you must use your grammar to express your ideas clearly. Here are some tips to make sure you\u2019re maximizing your spoken grammar score on test-day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can\u2019t teach an\nold dog new tricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A commonly used idiom\nis \u201cyou can\u2019t teach an old dog new tricks\u201d. You are not an old dog, but this\nsaying still might apply to you. Basically, this means that some grammar\nmistakes you made a long time ago, you are still making now. In other words, if\nyou keep making the same mistakes again and again, then it becomes harder and\nharder to correct them. The mistakes are almost programmed into your brain. So,\nwhat\u2019s the solution? The first step is to identify your mistakes. You have to\nknow what you are saying wrong. To do this you can do many things. You can ask\na teacher or a friend to always correct you. You could record you voice then\nwrite down all the mistakes you hear. You could also use technology \u2013 find a\ngood speech-to-text app, speak into the app, then run the text through a\ngrammar checker. These methods won\u2019t pick up every mistake, but they will make\nyou aware of some areas you need to improve on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get it right<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you have\nidentified the mistakes you are making, it\u2019s time to get it right. Of course,\nyou could go the traditional route and ask your teacher, tutor, or\ngrammar-proficient friend to show you the correct way to fix your errors. You\ncould also, as I\u2019ve mentioned above, run your mistakes through a grammar\nchecker. There are lots of apps that do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Practice is the key<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning a new\nlanguage is hard work. There is no question about this. To learn the grammar of\na new language well, you have to use it and practice it. The more you push\nyourself and the&nbsp;better practice&nbsp;tasks\nyou have, the faster you will improve. There are classic spoken grammar\nactivities like&nbsp;<em>listen &amp; repeat<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>complete the sentence<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>verb-tense question &amp; answer drills<\/em>. Other activities include&nbsp;<em>copy-cat<\/em>&nbsp;&#8212; which is basically repeating the\nspoken words of native speakers, and&nbsp;<em>reading aloud<\/em>&nbsp;\u2013 where you just read out loud the\ngrammar activities you do. Finally, getting a good spoken grammar task book or\napp will help. Ask your teacher for a good grammar text that has spoken\nactivities. And when you are doing your preparation homework, get together with\nanother test-taker, put down your pencil, and speak!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Know your grammar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great way to truly\nimprove your spoken grammar is to truly learn the rules. Take the time to read\nand understand why grammar rules exist. This will help you identify your own\nmistakes and also give you more motivation to speak correctly. Not only will\nunderstanding the rules help you improve your speaking, but it will also help\nyour other English skills like reading, writing, and listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix it up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When most people think\nof grammar, they think of grammar books and proof-reading essays. That is only\none small part of learning grammar though. Grammar can be found in every part\nof every language. It is the framework that links language together. So, when\nyou are practicing essay writing, and reading complex texts, you are indirectly\nimproving your spoken grammar. When you speak, try and reflect on the grammar\nyou have learned within the other skills. One great way to do this is with\nsubtitles. Find a video channel you like,&nbsp;<em>Ted Talks<\/em>, for example, and analyze the grammar in the\ntranscript or sub-titles. Try following this up by reading the scripts aloud or\neven repeating the speaker. This exercise will both help you gain deeper\nunderstanding of the grammatical structures and give you some speaking\npractice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to learn spoken grammar is to become aware of the rules, meaning, and use, then\u00a0<strong>use it<\/strong>! You have to push yourself to say all the grammar you have learned. It might feel uncomfortable at first, but the sooner you start, the faster you\u2019ll improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ecsielts.in\/\">ECS IELTS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Improving your grammar on the IELTS Speaking test When preparing for the ECS Best IELTS Coaching Center in Chennai Speaking test, you\u2019ll notice that there are four sections to the assessment criteria.
