WHY A HIGH BAND IN IELTS, OET & PTE ARE VERY IMPORTANT

All job aspirants who aspire to go to progressive nations to study, work, or to migrate should aim for a high score in these mandatory Global English exams. Of course, YouTube channel players occasionally celebrate breaking news just for their financial gains: NO IELTS REQUIRED ONLY 5.5 BAND IS ENOUGH CBSE/ICSE CERTIFICATES ARE ENOUGH. All these are only partial truths. I have been teaching all these exams for 26 years and have been dealing with many consultancies that facilitate students and migrants in reaching their dream destinations. On many occasions in the past, I could read this baseless news and experienced that only when students get a high band can succeed in getting admission to the college of their preference and succeed in getting a visa to these rich nations. As such, I earnestly request you to separate the wheat from the chaff and learn the truth. Consult sensible experts who are in this field at least for a few years and then you take your own decisions. Now we have a good number of candidates from abroad taking online training from us on IELTS, OET, PTE & TOEFL. Please note that there are only very few training centres in these developed nations and they charge huge sums of money for training candidates for a few hours on certain days. Their priority is not your success but what they get in financial terms. Media in general, social media in particular, seem to be not taking any responsibility if anything goes wrong in your life when you reach abroad because of their baseless news. Unfortunately, amid the explosion of information and when the truth is available at your fingertip, please find the truth from any official website and consultancies with some credibility. Taking these exams before you fly from here would be better because : 1. A high band in these exams will help you get your visa easily. 2. A good score will help you get admission to prestigious institutions. 3. Once you complete your education, of all your certificates the most valuable one will be your IELTS or an equal certificate in global exams. 4. During the time of getting a rewarding part-time job or when attempting for promotion your high band will have a great impact in molding your future.

CLARITY IS KEY IN IELTS

CLARITY IS KEY IN IELTS There seems to be a wrong notion embedded in the minds of IELTS test takers that it is mandatory to write or speak high-sounding words in the IELTS exam. Using bombastic words need not attract a high band in IELTS. Topic related vocabulary or reasonably uncommon WORDS, but with contextual relevance, are expected in IELTS Writing & Speaking for a score 6.5 or above. High end words in IELTS do not mean that certain high- sounding memorised words or some confusing and misleading phrases. What the IELTS exam conductors mean is that if you are smart enough to use the right collocations and right words which are suitable for the topic discussing, you can attract a score above 6.5 band or more. However, in reading your familiarity with many uncommon words, understanding of the meaning certain uncommon words and their contextual use might be useful. It is because some reading passages appear to be difficult as there may be quite a few difficult lexical resource, especially in the 3rd passage. Suffice to say that having a good command of vocabulary is required, but not the use of any misleading words or phrases to impress the examiner. It is worth to note that examiners are trained to identify the use of unnecessary and bombastic or declaratory words or phrases. B-GHUD ACADEMY Mavelikara & Kochi

TIPS FOR IELTS TEST PREPARATION

IELTS is an international English language proficiency test and it has been designed in such a way that all the skills necessary to have a good standard in the language are tested. There are certain important matters that an IELTS aspirant should essentially know to be able to face the test confidently. Know first of all that passing IELTS is no child’s play, but neither is it a very difficult task. If you know what to do and prepare yourself accordingly, you can easily become an IELTS holder. Here, B-GHUD Academy, the best IELTS coaching Centre in Kerala, shares their 26 years of experience in the field to help students. The IELTS test format It is extremely important that you know the IELTS test format. The key to your success in IELTS is a sound familiarity with the test pattern and format. B-GHUD has published one of the bestselling books in India on IELTS, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy,” which contains exhaustive information on each and every aspect of the test. It will give you all the information, tips and lessons that you will need to face IELTS with a smile. IELTS Listening Module IELTS listening module is demanding. You have to provide answers to 40 questions during 4 recordings. The recordings will be played only once. Typical questions include sentence completion, summary completion, form completion and multiple choices. It is possible for you to get lost during a conversation, but you need to recover fast or you will miss all the questions of that task afterwards. This would be a disaster.  As such, it is essential to understand how to follow a conversation, even if you miss something and how you can recover to continue answering the next questions. You are also expected to understand what type of information to supply depending on the question type – a number, a name, an address etc. The Speaking Module This test is less than 15 minutes long and is split into three parts. The first 5 minutes are reserved for introduction and general topics between the test taker and the examiner. The second part assesses the test taker’s ability to speak about a random topic given on a cue card. The last part merely adds complexity to the second. At this stage, the examiner will also pay attention to pronunciation, lexical resources and fluency. Practising each part under exam conditions is essential to your test preparation and you will also get used to the pressure you will have during the test. You need to be able to write down notes that will help you to talk for two minutes during the second part of the test. You should also practice answering questions when you don’t really know the answer. Remember that your knowledge is not assessed but your English language proficiency is. IELTS Reading Module The IELTS reading module tests a wide range of reading skills such as reading for gist, reading for main ideas, reading for detail, skimming, understanding logical argument and recognising writers’ opinions, attitudes and purpose. Test takers have to provide short answers, match information, complete sentences, match headings or complete diagram labels. It is essential, therefore, to practise includes a wide variety of questions so that you become accustomed to each type. As such, developing a wide range of reading skills is essential. Timing is of vital importance in the reading module. You will not have the time to go through the texts several times. There are strategies to help you to avoid this situation, for example, how to skim the text and what kind of information you need to focus on. The Writing Module It is found that the writing module is the most difficult of all. Both tasks in the academic training must be written in a formal style. Task 1 requires that you interpret a graph/chart/table etc., which requires significant practice in English. Task 2 is writing an essay on a given topic and presents a number of challenges. Often, the topic given can be hard to develop if you are not familiar with it. In addition, the essay must have a proper structure. For Task 2 requires that you write different types of essays such as Agree or Disagree, Discuss two Opposing Opinions, Advantages and Disadvantages, Problems and Solutions, Causes and Solutions, Causes and Effects. You have to familiarise yourself with the structure of an essay, how to develop it, how to write the introduction and  the conclusion.  You must be able to connect your ideas using cohesion and coherence. Tips in general Take a practice test. Understand the test format. Be aware of the exam time constraints. One of the biggest mistakes students make is to forget to improve their English. Start preparing for your test well in time. We recommend finding an institution which will help you with English development and IELTS strategies. Listen to native speakers talking to one another and if possible join in. Bear in mind that self-learning is possible as long as you are committed. Above all, to make things really easy for you, why not join B-GHUD Academy, the leaders in the field and the top training Centre for IELTS in Kerala, India?

BEST IELTS WRITING STRATEGIES IN 2023

BEST IELTS COACHING CENTRE IN KERALA

To live up to its reputation of being the best IELTS training Centre in Kerala, B-GHUD Academy keeps striving to provide its IELTS students with whatever guidelines are necessary. Here are the IELTS writing strategies IELTS students should be equipped with to enable them to do commendably well in the IELTS tests. 1. IELTS writing is for 60 minutes. Task 2 (Essay) is longer than Task 1 (Graph/Letter) and it also fetches double the marks. It is, therefore, important that students wisely divide the time for each task. Spend 20 minutes on Task 1 so that they can take 40 minutes to attempt the essay comfortably. 2. IELTS students should essentially read and understand the topic thoroughly well. It is because an IELTS essay should address the different parts of the topic relevantly. Otherwise, the task would not be achieved and the IELTS student will lose marks. 3. While writing the introduction, every IELTS student should make sure that they use their own words. Copying the topic as it is to write the introduction will be penalised – copied material will not be counted and your total word count would come down. Make sure that you rephrase the topic for your introduction. 4. After having thoroughly understood the different aspects of the topic – that is, after ensuring exactly what points in the essay are to be dealt with – make a plan mentally on how to approach the essay, what to write and how. You may use rough paper to jot down the points. 5. Divide the main body of your essay into paragraphs. You may write two or three body paragraphs depending on the topic. It is in these paragraphs that you present your main ideas. You should write these ideas clearly and support them with examples. If your ideas are clear and well-supported, you will get more marks. 6. While writing the main paragraphs, ensure that they are linked together using “coherence.” Your writing becomes exceptionally impressive if you use apt words or phrases for coherence. An example of good coherence is given below. a. Body paragraph 1 begins: “On the one hand….” b. Body paragraph 2 begins: “On the other hand….” The coherence used above clearly shows that your ideas are contrasting. All essays in B-GHUD books, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy” and “IELTS Writing Made Easy” (there are nearly 500 of them!) use an extensive range of coherence for the IELTS students to master prompt use of them. 7. You should write your essay in a discursive style. It means that the sentences you write in a paragraph should be linked together using connective words. It is known as “cohesion.” Cohesion ensures attractive writing. An example of cohesion is given below. “Space research is of great benefit to a nation. However, it is extremely expensive.” This sentence means that “although space research is beneficial, it is very expensive.” See how well the word, ‘however,’ connects the two sentences! Similar to coherence, our books, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy” and “IELTS Writing Made Easy” use countless examples of cohesion in their essays for the IELTS students to have a good grasp of them. 8. Lexical resources are another important factor in writing good IELTS essays. The test taker should try to use his own words. Remember, also, to use topic-related words. Topic-related words are those words that are closely related to the topic in question and are usually used frequently while writing or speaking about the subject. For example, if the topic is “pollution,” the related words are waste disposal, waste management, pollution control, effluent treatment, carbon emission, carbon footprint, global warming, environmental problems, greenhouse effect, climate change, deforestation, afforestation and so on. All IELTS essays in our books, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy” and “IELTS Writing made Easy” invariably use topic-related words, phrases and terms to benefit IELTS trainees. B-GHUD maintains its position as the top IELTS Coaching Centre in Kerala by ensuring that its students are provided with the best guidance. 9. GRA (Grammatical Range and Accuracy) is one of the main criteria for the evaluation of IELTS essays. Grammatical range means that the IELTS test takers should write a variety of sentence structures in their IELTS essays. B-GHUD book, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy,” caters to an extensive range of attractive structures (see pages 108, 109, 187, 239, 240, 300) for IELTS students to imbibe, so that they can write the impressive language. Grammatical accuracy generally means that the IELTS test takers should use the correct tenses in their IELTS essays. There are any number of interesting and intelligent exercises in our book, “IELTS & TOEFL Made Easy,” for the IELTS students to get adept at the use of the right tenses (“Syntax”) in their IELTS writing. 10. Writing the concluding paragraph is yet another important area where that IELTS students should be careful about. Since the conclusion is the last part of your essay, it creates a lasting impression on the evaluator. IELTS students should, therefore, try to make it striking. Your conclusion should not only be logical, but it also should not vary from the thesis sentence you have already written in the introduction. Consistency of your view is what the examiner looks for. 11. Last but not least, your word count should be sufficient (not less than 250 words.) Keep check of your word count from time to time while writing, so that your essay is neither short of the requisite word count nor too long. Whereas short answers will be penalised, you get no extra marks for long essays. Check your essay for grammar, spelling and punctuation errors before turning in your answer paper. We at B-GHUD Academy make it customary to train our IELTS students in line with these strategies. It is thus that we consistently achieve a high success rate and keep being the No.1 IELTS coaching centre in Kerala.

HOW DOES B-GHUD ACADEMY STILL EXIST?

B-GHUD has survived many challenges during the last 26 years and emerged victorious in the rat race of mushrooming institutes only because it has been producing excellent results since its inception in 1996. Of all the institutes of IELTS and TOEFL which started during that period, many of them could not survive because of fierce competition in the field, inability to be adaptable to the paradigm shifts in the fields, unprofessional management, the absence of futuristic vision and the inability to move with the times. Positive word of mouth, it is generally said, is the most reliable marketing strategy. B-GHUD ACADEMY has been abundantly blessed with it for valid reasons. Beyond all these B-GHUD could help a huge number of successful candidates score a high band in the global English exams required for studying abroad and migrating to progressive nations. In addition, the consistency in generating commendable results has enabled this institute to fetch students and job aspirants from the length and width of India.

It is worth mentioning that most of the senior trainers of B-GHUD ACADEMY were trained by the British Council and IDP.

The OET section of B-GHUD ACADEMY has been producing excellent results since OET was introduced in India 4 years ago. B-GHUD has written three books on OET alone. (OET AT 1ST ATTEMPT, OET SPEAKING MADE EASY & OET WRITING MADE EASY). Regular mock tests, in-depth analysis of grammar, ample opportunities to practise role-plays with our experts and intensive training on the Reading and Writing modules have helped our students score the required band score to settle in their dream destinations.

For those who are new to PTE Academic, some interesting facts are given hereunder. What is the Pearson Test of English (PTE) Academic? PTE is an International English Language Testing System. It is unique in that it is different from IELTS or TOEFL. It accurately assesses the Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing ability of test-takers who wish to have higher education at institutions where English is the principal language of instruction.

IELTS and TOEFL test the language skills (Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing) of the test-takers in a direct way – say, for example, writing an essay, letter, graph analysis for the writing skill and reading some passages and then answering some questions for the Reading skill. However, PTE uses a variety of combined skills to assess a test taker’s skill in English for oral or written communication. This is so because language skills do not usually occur in the isolated or singular forms. Using combined or integrated skills is important because in an academic environment students are often required to combine several language skills to perform a task. A perfect example to make this clearer is speaking on a subject after reading some information about it or listening to some information on the subject.

They are from functions and situations that you come across during academic studies in an English speaking environment.
