- In this video, I analyse the 4 most popular IELTS Reading tips and tricks so you don't have to.
We examine why you need a strategy for each of the 11 IELTS reading question types and why having 1 strategy for all IELTS reading questions is a bad idea.
We also show you how to answer True, False, and Not Given Questions before showing you everything you need to know about skimming and scanning.

Chris is the first person to say what I am always thinking of. I totally agree with you
Hi Chris, I want to thank you for helping me to get a 9.0 in IELTS reading in my first atempt. I couldn't afford your IELTS course, but the free videos in your channel and your free challenge courses led me to that incredible performance. Your work is admirable, thank you for helping me and thousands of students. God bless you.
Excellent!
Chris from other account 🤣 trying to support himself
Your tips were very useful. You were the only person who advised against memorizing specific words for the writing and speaking parts of the task. I watched only your videos to achieve the score I needed. Keep up the great work!!!!!!!
Hi Chris! I'm from Latvia. I wanted to thank you for the videos on this channel. They were a tremendous help with my IELTS preparations. I knew my English was sufficient before the test already, but your tips, strategies and advice helped me feel more confident about doing well on the test. Got band 8 and now I can apply for my Master's studies in Denmark. So grateful!
Happy to help! All the best!
You're amazing Chris. Thank you for all the free help. ❤
Thank you Chris for your advice. I have used your advice through my practice and I’ve got a 7.5 for reading which is 2 bands higher than my last IELTS exam. I hope I’m not watching anymore IELTS video but I’ll definitely suggest your channel to people who is taking the exam
Congratulations!
Thank you chris ,i got 7 band in reading and also overall 7 ,this is my desired scored ,i took my test on. 16th dec
Congrats!
That’s really up to you. Yes, the course will help you, but only if you put the work in.
Hey I am also 12th passed out I put 1 month of quality study and got overall 7 ,if you are passed with English cbse you need max 2-3 months nonetheless you are already good in English@@shyamsharma4658
Good video, But unfortunately IELTS is not only language testing test, but it also test other skills which make it more complicated and difficult for all people...
You are a genius sir. You got the right point that we students are facing problems following different strategies of different people. That's why we can't get a score above 6 or 6.5 band.
Chrisx, didn’t get that what you are saying 😂😂😂
Hi Chris thanks for the useful video keep up with the work you really encourage me 😊
Hey Chris, I'm from Mozambique 🇲🇿 and i wanna thank you for the amazing job you're doing. I got the IELTS score I needed to win a scholarship just by watching your videos and practising what I've learnt from them, you really made my preparation. I'm really grateful. God bless you.
wow congrats! i hope i can get the scolarship too. wish me luck!
@@satrionugroho4518 thanks 😊 Good luck!!!👍
There are many successful people testifying that IELTS advantage has been more helpful to them, thanks for the good work.
Thank you Chris for the wonderful tips and tricks.
I had only a week to prepare and take my IELTS test. I only followed your videos and got an overall band score of 7. L-7.5, R-7, W-7, S-7. Thanks for your efforts in making these videos. Greatly appreciate them. Maybe I would've gotten a better score if I had more time. Anyway, I'm happy that I could achieve a 7 with the limited time I had to prepare.
Great job!
Thank you Chris, I wish I found about you sooner. I got overall 7 on my IELTS Academic, with 7L, 7R, 7S, 7W. Results. My main piece of advice would be to ''FOCUS''. I lost focus at reading, scrobbling through last 10 questions on my reading part, and knowing that I would surely got a higher grade. Thank you.
Note: Please prepare for your IELTS weeks before the real test. I prepared for 3 hours only, and got a overall 7. This would have been higher, please dedicate your time to preparing.
IELTS weeks mean?
Plz help me for enhance my score 🙏
thank you so much Crish for your all free videos.
Hi Chris! Cant thank you enough for your videos. I just got a band 8 in my first attempt!! I only had a week to prepare for the test so I was really panic. But your videos saved me!! Thank you so much for the tips and knowledges. ❤
Great job!
Hi Chris! Just wanted to say THANK YOU. I got my results today, and I’m glad to say that I took it from band 6 to band 8 overall! With 8,5 listening, 8,5 reading, 7,5 writing and 7 speaking I am honestly impressed myself as I just had A WEEK to prepare, and I only have your videos to thank!

Thank you, Chris posting this video. I watched many TH-cam videos about teaching students skills. Every time it was unclear, every question has the same skills, which are scanning and skimming. My reading score was terrible, I’m taking VIP course with Ielts advantages now. I wasn’t expected there are massive information and skills to learn and I realized that I was doing WRONG whole time. Thankfully, I feel I found the right professional teacher here. I can’t wait my scores increase near future 🎉 I want to say thank you for passing the right message to the students whoever struggling with Ielts. Once I get aimed scores, I will send out email:) I hope I can become one of your amazing students. 🎉
Hi there! We're glad to know that you find our lessons helpful! We are very much looking forward to have you as one of our success stories soon. If there's anything we can further help you with, please feel free to reach out.

Hello teacher, Thank you from the USA !

It's my pleasure
Hiiii!!!! I got a band level 8 overall!!!! Listening: 9, Reading: 8.5, Writing: 7, Speaking: 7.5 !!!! Thank you so much for your help Chris!
Congratulations!
Hello. Sir ko vip course leko ki youtube video bata padheko tapai le ?
So I have my IELTS test in a few days.
2 weeks ago I was practicing with the first example you cited. I obtained high scores with their mock tests. As high as 38 out of 40 questions.
After practicing all of their mock tests I went onto to the IELTS ready member platform and I failed miserably on their practice tests even scoring as low as 10.
Moral lesson, their training platform didn’t exactly prepare me for the exams. I would have failed the IELTS miserably if I had proceeded to write the exams without sourcing for more information.
There’s a lot of materials out there, you the student have to firstly understand the IELTS and then once you understand you should be able to filter through accurate and inaccurate training materials.
Anyways, all the best to everyone!
Hey chris ,i just wanna say that with your help i got 7.5 in reading and 7 in listening (overall6.5) my requirement was only overall 6 at last , i want to say thank you soooo much!
Great job!
@@Ieltsadvantage thanks sir🙏
Hi Chris! where did you buy the test booklet you are showing in the video?
Hi Chris, I'm writing this to tell you how much I appreciate this channel. With your tips, I got a perfect score on Listening and Reading. While I luckily only got 7(with your essay builder) and but only 6.5 on speaking cuz I didn't practice it much. With an overall score of 8, your channel has helped me so much

@@Ieltsadvantage definitely. Thanks again.
Hi Chris I would like to thank you I never practiced English on my home country therfore ielts was a huge challenge for me .
My aim score was 7 speaking and 6.5 over all so I decided to practice speaking and listening as I can get 8 or 9 on listening easily and I ignored writing and reading.
Just 1 weak prior my exam my husband sent me invitation for your 5 days writing challenge and your video how to score 8 on reading that's all what I did .
On the exam I followed your writing structure and your tips for reading .
The result is released 3 days ago
7.5 speaking 8 listening and this is non important I scored 7 in writing just following your structure and 7 in reading following your tips
I'm so delighted to find your channel you helped me snd my autistic son to live a better life thank you
This is amazing news. Congratulations!
Once upon a time I was a big fan of that youtuber, then I realised that fact which is explained in this video. Intelligent trick they play with students who are aspirants.
Chris, I'll take my official test in two more days, thank you for your videos. May God bless me🙂
All the best!
Thank you so much for fruitful lesson. I hope I will be able to improve IELTS score in coming test.
You're welcome!

I got 7.5 overall, thank you for the tips.
Well done!
Please ,chris make videos on how to structure the introduction part for each essay,. Please
You'll find all of that in our VIP Course.
Hi Chris, greetings from 🇺🇦Ukraine. Before passing my IELTS I was watching your videos for about a week. My overall score is 7,5 and my reading, that I feared I wouldn’t pass, is 8,5. Of course it’s not only your advices that helped me, but they definitely really improved my knowledge about the exam grading system and provided really convenient tips. Thank you!!!
Well done!
Hi Chris,
I did the General Reading practice once without any Tips I got Band 5 however after watching your Band 9 Tips today I did another General Reading test I got Band 7 some points that I should not make those mistakes and I will brush up on my skills with your Tips to reach a higher score !! cannot thank you enough for your dedication for sharing your Band 9 Tips❤❤❤❤❤
Woah! Well done!
Hi Chris, I recently took the ielts test and got the ielts band 8. Listening: 8, Reading 9, Writing 7, Speaking 7. I just want to say thank you so much for all of your guides and tips, they helped me so much in preparing and building the confidence to take the test!
Woah! Congratulations!
Hi Chris. I am an English teacher and I have taken an IELTS test a few times. I just wanted to tell everyone here that I have seen other IELTS videos about reading on TH-cam and, in comparison, your strategies are more realistic and doable, while I can tell you that the other gurus seems like they have never taken an IELTS test before. They focus on teaching enticing tips and tricks that will never work in the IELTS reading.
Now, I understand why you are harsh on other online gurus. You are trying to save people from getting fooled and wasting a lot of money for nothing.
Most sensible comment I’ve read in a while.
You are the best pell
Why you are so good sir
I got my IELTS results today and I was pretty nervous about my speaking part.
Turns out I got band 9 in speaking, so I can't complain
Well done!
Hi Chris, i got 7 overall band score im happy af right now 😊
Amazing!
Loved this video. Please make these sort of comparatively "shorter" videos with tips on writing and listening too
Thanks for your suggestion. I'll look into it. If there's anything we can assist you with regarding your IELTS preparation, please feel free to reach out.
I took the IELTS test 3 times and I managed to improve from 6 to 8.5 in Reading. Between my 2nd and 3rd retake, I went from 7 to 8.5 only in three months just when I did one thing differently: I stopped reading and understanding the whole text. I find it completely misleading and disingenuous to tell people to fully understand everything in the text. You are a native speaker and you have been teaching IELTS for a living, so obviously it seems easy for you. It is really striking to me though how disconnected you are from relating to your students’ struggle.
And why the negativity towards other instructors? For a non-native speaker an 8 is still a progress, and I'm proud of anyone making progress and sharing their journey trying to help! Those instructors’ advice was really helpful for me and I will always be grateful!
Then what should I do to get 7 at least in reading?
@@SamsOpinion I made a whole video about my personal experience to get to 8.5 just in 3 months ;)
@@IELTSSuccessFastlane 3 months, it's a long period
@@SamsOpinion Well! You can do it in a shorter period of time, depends on your skills and motivation! 3 months was actually the period that the test was available for me to retake again, there were no free spots before that. But essentially, I give the formula that worked for me and I hope my experience can benefit you to accelerate your learning! But at the end of the day, you have to practice for sometime to achieve that result ! Unfortunately I don’t have the magic wound to make it happen overnight! ;)
Hey Cris may i know what books are you using in this videos?please I'm interesting
Thank you for the great tips but the key takeaways from the video actually starts at 9:56 The rest were just unnecessary and a waste of time. Instead of going on and on about how your strategies work, just go straight to the point. A person in the right mind can tell by themselves if the tips make sense or not. Or at least just explain how they work briefly or at the end instead of more than half the video lol. We already get it that you are professionals and know what you're doing so there's no need to explain or prove it
thank you very very much😭
Go ahead Mr Chris! I am a new follower but your tip about writing task really helped me❤
Welcome!
thank you so much!
You're welcome!
I will take IELTS Academic paper exam, however I have ADHD that leads me to miss some points. When I am doing mock exam to myself, for the reading part, I am completing within 30 minutes and having band of 6.5. The issue in here is, I forget rapidly what I read and it makes me frustrated. So, my question is "do you have any suggestion for people with ADHD?"
Thanks a lot🎉
Most welcome 😊
amazing sir
Thank you so much ❤
You're welcome!
Hi Chris, what other worthy resources do you recommend to people who once did Cambridges book and didn’t get their favorite score and now need new resources to practice reading and listening skills?!

I can’t believe I wasted 2 weeks, religiously watching and taking in all the informations from E2 IELTS! 😢 I wish I discovered your channel earlier, and I could have avoided wasting my time, the confusion and the tension headache from the other channel. 😂 Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skills with us. I’m glad I clicked on the suggested video that I’ve been ignoring since I was obsessed with the wrong youtube channel. Well, atleast there’s still time for me to learn the correct and best skills for my upcoming exam. Thanks so much and keep doing what you are doing! 😘😘😘
E2 are pretty good too, but thanks,
@@Ieltsadvantage oh you have no idea how relieved I am after I’ve watched your videos. There was something about the essay task 2 that really gave me tension headache. I knew in my gut that it wasn’t giving me 100% of what I needed. After watching three of your videos, that’s when I proved that my instinct was right after all. You just eased all my anxieties away, and I felt that I’m on the right path. For that, I can’t thank you enough. May your company reap all the success that you deserve. 😘
Hello Chris! Just wanted to show my gratitude, your vids help me a lot to score, i only watched yours and Ielts by Asad Yaqub vids 2 days before exam an din only 2 days I was able to score 7 bands overall.
The tips you gave for writing, reading and listening questions are amazing. THANKYOU SO MUCH
Congratulations!
Thank you I hope I'll win this
Good luck!

You're welcome
Well, It depends on individual’s ability. If you are loaded with full range of vocabularies then you will quickly grasp the ideas. I guess there are no any certain tricks for reading, it’s all about how much you understand from your own knowledge.
I think I've watched this video))
but thank you anyway, you cannot imagine how much you help us, respect👑

@Ieltsadvantage
I have a question for you
My question is, actually, about comprehension, exactly on reading, there are a lot of problems with my comprehension skills. However, I know enough vocabulary that I think enough but results
Hi. I was just wondering one thing. Someone on IG made a post, saying that there hasn't been anyone who has got perfect score of 9 (overall and each skill) on IELTS. I, on the other hand, believe there should be somebody. I just can't believe there isn't anyone who has reached that score. Unfortunately, I can't find any evidence. What do you think?
can i download cambridge ielts books pdf file online and use it ? how relaible is it?
I have a question, if the question says one word only and I am writing pleural form of word does it make the answer incorrect??
Unfortunately, it happened to me on the test day, I was full of different strategies because I had watched lots of them on TH-cam, and I was confused. So, I ended up with a 5 in reding skill.
That's really sad. 😮
Same thing happened to me now I'm sticking to IELTS advantages. Alot of misinformation out there.
Maaan I do rarely write comments here in TH-cam I got an overall score 7 thanks for ur Chanel and only for ur Chanel I got 8L 6R 6W and 7 speaking I am happy for my score and I want to share my appreciation for u ❤️ thanks man
Excellent! Congratulations!
nice
