IELTS Speaking skills you need
Fluency and coherence
Fluency is the ability to be able to speak without too many pauses or hesitations. Coherence is the way that your speech is understood by the examiner, it is how well you stay on topic and how clear your arguments and ideas are.
Effective vocabulary
Lexical resource refers to how well you can use vocabulary and the range and accuracy of that vocabulary. As it is a formal interview, the language should be formal and not too casual.
Grammatical accuracy refers to being able to use a range of grammatical structures and being able to use the language appropriately.
Clarity
Pronunciation should be clear and this relates not only to individual words, but also to full sentences. It is not expected that the candidate sounds like a native speaker, but the pronunciation should be such that it is easy to understand.
The examiner will take all of the above criteria into consideration and award the candidate a band score between 0 and 9 based on the candidate’s performance.
