What a bad day!

Very well written! Sometimes you can find past exam papers and do them for practise. That often helps. With the writing, it is very important to recognise good English. One usually gets this by reading well written books. Then, when you come to write, yourself, you will recognise the good and the bad in your own writing, and you can discard the bad.

What a Bad Day!

I took the IELTS exam this morning. I had studied a lot last night in preparation for it, but unfortunately, I didn't do well on the exam, especially in the writing and the speaking portions (I'm very bad at these two skills). My mother clearly showed her disappointment as she has spent a lot of money on my behalf towards my education. I'm very sad and I realize that I just a worthless girl. So sad!!!

Hi My. Not everyone succeeds on the first attempt, but that’s all it means, not that you are a failure or worthless. Yes, of course, it is a disappointment, but you should now channel those feelings into your future studies. As to writing, search on-line for English language newspapers (The New York Times, The Times (of London), The Guardian, San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, Bangkok Post, etc.) or magazines (Time, Newsweek, The Economist, etc.,  then, read and understand the structure of their composition (True, some require a subscription, but some allow you a set number of free viewings of articles …). As to speaking, watch movies or TV series or music videos in English (YouTube offers many) to train your ear as to the pronunciation. If you can then find someone (preferably, a native speaker) to practice with in person, great, but if not, talk out loud to yourself until your speech matches what you hear in the movies and TV series and videos. If you do all of that, I have no doubt that you will pass the IELTS exam the next time you take it. Best of luck! I hope that this helps you. J.

It was very hard for me to even type the words "I am just a worthless girl."  Because it is not true.  You studied a lot the night before your test and that was a very good thing.  Do you feel bad because you were supposed to study for more than one day?  If that is true and you have learned a valuable lesson that is also a good thing.  If you did everything you were supposed to do and still didn't get the grade you wanted knowing that you did your best is also a good thing.  Perhaps the next test will be excellent. In every possible way you look at it the fact that you care about your grade shows that you are a very honorable worthwhile girl.  Keep working at it and you will get there.
