To score highly for Vocabulary on the IELTS Speaking exam, you must show the examiner a range of vocabulary, which means informal phrases in Parts 1 and 2, and more formal vocab. in Part 3.

This means that you cannot just use easy words. In contrast, you also cannot only use high-level words.

You need a range.

To prepare for this, watch the video and write down impressive slang words and idiomatic phrases that your average “band score 6” candidate will not use on the exam.

Be a 7+!
