Taking Band 7 students to Band 8-9 in IELTS Speaking. This course is focused on demonstrating natural, idiomatic and grammatically-advanced English language skills which will impress the IELTS examiner.

Idiomatic/Expressive Language to impress them:

Instead of spending a lot of money, we SPLASH OUT!

Rather than tolerating something annoying, we.... PUT UP WITH it.

We aren't just happy --> we're over the moon!

Linking devices to make them say wow:

When we want to tell the examiner additional information, we don't say furthermore! NO!- We say on top of that!

If we want to contrast views, we can say... but at the same time.. or mind you.. ( The examiner will be amazed when you use something like mind you in your answer!)

Regarding -> but as far as _______ goes, ....

Such as ______  -> the likes of  ______.

Grammar to make them do a double-take:

Third conditional is a breeze! -> If I hadn't shown you the third conditional, you might've not used it in your test!

Creative connecting -> You'll be just as impressed as the examiner!

Cool right?!

Are you ready to dive in and actually see some answers that will blow the examiner away?!!

This course includes:

-12 Complete IELTS Speaking Test Samples (Bands 8-9)!

-Annotations of each perfect answer given!

-Heaps of idioms, phrasal verbs, descriptive adjectives, grammar structure points and tips throughout!

- Colour-coordinated answers which show what language increases which score (Fluency & Coherence/ Lexical Resources/ Grammatical Range & Accuracy).

-12 Mini Tests at the end of each section to test how much you've learnt!

Who teaches IELTS Advanced Speaking (Band 8-9)? Udemy

Udemy thumbnail

Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.

Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
