We asked an experienced IELTS Examiner and teacher Ranald Barnicot of Barnet College in North London first to examine eight candidates at different levels from different nationalities then to analyse their performances in each part of the Speaking module and finally to assemble a range of extracts to illustrate these skills and techniques. Tell me about the IELĨS Speaking Module. E Well it consists of three parts which place rather different demands on the candidates and it s always a one-to-one interview. However there are general criteria which apply to all three parts. There s fluency and coherence to start with. This involves the ability to speak without too much hesitation or pausing to correct one s own mistakes. I mean it s good to do that but too much gets in the way of communication. And you should also speak at a proper speed so that you don t put a strain on the examiner by speaking too slowly or too fast. I Could you explain coherence a little more E Basically it means connecting your ideas in a structured way so that the listener can understand what you re trying to say. And this way you can also avoid repeating yourself. I And what about grammar I imagine that s pretty important. E Yes very much. Candidates structures should be reasonably correct and they should show that they can use a Lot of different grammatical structures some fairly complex and not just the basic ones. We call these two factors accuracy and range. And of course the same things apply to vocabulary. I How about pronunciation I imagine it s not very satisfactory having brilliant vocabulary if nobody can understand what you re saying. E Absolutely not And not only do candidates have to get individual sounds right like distinguishing t and th for example .
