About this guide
Stop memorising impressive words you never actually use. Learn to say it like a 7+. Say It Like a 7+ is a practical IELTS Speaking vocabulary and collocations book designed to help you use better language naturally and accurately, rather than simply memorising lists of “Band 9” words. Across 20 common IELTS Speaking topics, you'll learn useful vocabulary and advanced collocations, see them used in realistic answers, practise them through targeted exercises, and then use them to build your own answers. The book takes you through Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3, with a particular focus on helping you develop the language and answer structure needed for more extended, natural responses. You won't just learn what a word or collocation means. You'll practise how and when to use it, notice common mistakes, explore alternative ways to express ideas, and personalise the language so it becomes part of your own speaking. The goal isn't to memorise the model answers. It's to learn from them and develop your own way of saying things.

Why this guide is different
Most IELTS resources are generic tips collected from anywhere. This one is built specifically around the mistakes real students actually make — shaped by years of teaching IELTS directly and by real questions from the IELTS TIME community. It's a focused system built around one specific problem, not another list of tips to sort through on your own.
About the author
I'm Iman, the teacher behind IELTS TIME. I had to learn English myself the hard way, which is part of why I build clear systems instead of another pile of generic tips — I know what it feels like to be lost and need an actual path forward, not just more information.
