2. KNOW YOUR STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES!


If you are visiting this blog for the first time, please consider starting with the very first post as it contains useful hints and links.   Working through this blog in sequence can also help you identify strengths and weaknesses in your knowledge of the English Language.


Unfortunately, if you fail an IELTS test your score will not help you discover your English Language strengths and weaknesses.
The best person to identify your strengths and weaknesses is you.

IELTS exams are very expensive, and failing is not just frustrating, it can undermine your self-confidence.

You must honestly assess your mastery of things like:
  • English Sounds;
  • English Grammar; and
  • English Vocabulary.

To help assess your strengths and weakness, read this blog from the beginning and watch the lessons on my improveyourenglishwithjane YouTube Channel:
  • If you learn nothing new, you can count your understanding of a topic as a strength;
  • If you only learn one new thing about a topic, your knowledge will be strengthened;
  • If you don't know much about a topic, count this as a weakness you must work on.
My next post discusses English Sounds and provides some handy links.
