IELTS Speaking Part 2 timer
In Part 2 you get a task card, 1 minute to prepare and then speak for up to 2 minutes. The examiner may stop you at 2 minutes. Aim to keep talking until then.
When your minute is up, the timer stops at 0:00 and beeps until you press Start speaking.
Ready
1:00
Read your task card, then press Start.
How to use the minute
- Write 4–6 key words, one for each bullet point on the card, and one for an extra detail or a feeling.
- Decide your first sentence, so you start without a long pause.
- When you speak, follow your key words in order and add an example for each.
