NICK IELTS Speaking
English
Apr 29, 2019
Lin, you're improving rapidly in your quest to sound more like a native speaker! You were really solid during the IELTS Speaking Test that we did in class, today! Your self-assessment of the score you would probably be awarded in an IELTS Speaking Test was incredibly accurate! This shows that you are very aware of what you do well, when speaking in English and also, what you need to do to improve your ability in English as a whole and in this Speaking Test, in particular! I think that, if you start using the "Fillers" that we discussed and practised during the lesson, you'll very quickly start to sound more like a native speaker and less like a Mandarin speaker!! Your main problem is being consistent about getting the Agreement right between Subjects and Verbs, and also, making sure that Plural Countable Nouns are given an "s" when they need one, but not, when they don't, and that Uncountable Nouns always have a Singular Verb, while Plural Countable Nouns are used with a Plural Verb!!!
