How to perk up Score in Reading                                    

Most of the students appearing for IELTS find Reading a challenging part. They convey their difficulty in reading section as most of them feel it is hard to score in reading. As the author of Achievers 9 Bands Books, I regularly facilitate students to achieve higher band score.

Here are some Tested Tips to improve your Reading Score.

1. There are nearly 14 types of questions in the task. Each type of question has its own strategy. Master those strategies and practice well. Techniques save time and help to complete the task within time i.e 60 minutes. Some of the approaches are well described in the videos 'Achievers 9 Bands' available on the You Tube.
2. Reading task has only 60 minutes time for Completion. There are 40 questions. A proper time management is required and if you spend 1 minute for each question, 20 minutes for reading and understanding one passages is very less. So, you have to manage your own time. As a trainer, I advise my students to attempt 1^st section with 12-13 questions in 15 minutes, 2^nd section in 20 minutes and 25 minutes for the last one. But it’s not a hard and fast rule. You can go with your own technique. But finishing 40 questions is necessary otherwise the desired score is not usually achieved.
3. The test has a strict time limit. So rather reading each and every word and making your mind understand everything, it is better to go with Skimming and Scanning. Skimming is reading a passage to get a general idea of content. This will give you an idea of the topic and layout. Scanning is your ability to locate information quickly.
4. Improve reading skills by practicing different readings. The more you will practice the more confident you will be. But every reading practice should help you to grow in bands. Most of the time the students practice a new reading every time but don’t bother about the mistakes. Reading will be improved only and bands will be achieved if you spend time checking your mistakes and understanding to correct them. Above all, learn from your mistakes so that we donot commit the same error again.
5. Reading instructions given before the question carefully is equally important. Sometimes good students also miss marks because they did not read the instructions carefully.

So dear all, your understanding level will improve and you will perform better before you take IELTS.

 Stay connected and best wishes till we meet again with more set of instructions in Reading.”

To conclude today, I would like to tell you that every success requires pain of hard work, properly devoted time and seriousness towards the task. So,

                                                       “Stay Focus, achieve high”
