What is IELTS speaking test?
Let us start with the introduction of the IELTS speaking test. IELTS speaking test involves discussion with an examiner for 10-15 minutes. An IELTS speaking test is of three parts
Part 1: In this part, you will be asked to answer questions about yourself, and your family and about your interests. Some of the common questions asked in part 1 can be found here.
Part 2: You will be given a topic and you have to speak on that topic. You will be given 1 minute to prepare and then 1-2 minutes to speak.
Part 3: It involves a topic of a longer discussion. This part can be related to the topic from your part 2 or can be a separate topic.
IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training involves the same speaking tests. You will have to practice as much as you can for speaking tests. Keep yourself updated with the latest news and happening. You can find a speaking partner among your friend or someone online and then practice speaking with him or her on those topics.
To improve your speaking, you can record your voice and then listen to it. You can then work on that pronunciation which you find is not easy to understand.

Part 1 of the IELTS Speaking Module consists of personal questions about you, your family, your work, your education or other familiar topics. A categorized list of such topics and questions is given below. You can use these sample questions to rehearse for this part of the oral interview. Make sure you can speak correctly, clearly, and with ease and confidence in response to each question. Remember to make your answer interesting by providing more than the most basic information. Some of these sample questions are highly likely to appear on your exam, so review them well.
In Part 2 of the IELTS Speaking Module, you need to give a short talk, of about 1-2 minutes, on a simple topic. The questions do not require any specific knowledge, but are based on personal experience. You are handed a card with the topic and you have one minute to prepare your talk. You can make notes and use these notes during your monologue. The examiner will not ask you any questions during this part of the test, so you must know how to answer all parts of the question you are given and speak fluently for a few minutes by yourself. Sample IELTS Speaking Module topics (for Part 2) are given below. It is quite likely that you will be given one of these topics or something very similar, so make sure you can speak confidently and clearly on each one.
