Here are 10 tips on how to improve your speaking and get 8+ on IELTS.

ββπ THE IELTS BOOST THAT YOU NEED
We all have heard those success stories of people who took IELTS and moved abroad. They have led a glorious life ever since. And sometimes we find ourselves frustrated because of the lack of progress in our knowledge.
This is the time to act!
After a pause, we finally launch the next batch of the famous Rocket Speed IELTS Preparation Course. And this time - with 3 different tiers! Now you can study on your own (buy only materials for 25 USD), work with groupmates (the standard option, 40 USD) or work with the trainer (practice speaking with me, 60 USD).
And as always - you will get only exclusive materials that I don't publish anywhere else, authentic mock tests sources, all checked homework, interaction with other course members, band scores given and explained, and much much more!

Here is a test for you to check that! Good luck!
