I hope you're feeling optimistic about the new decade ahead. This is the perfect time to make plans and create new, positive habits.
This morning I began a new habit: I made my first 'daily IELTS challenge' flashcard. I've always liked using flashcards and vocabulary cards as warm-up activities when I'm teaching classes, so I decided to start making my own.
Here's the first one:
Note: I won't be publishing these flashcards here on the blog. I'll send them by email to people on my subscriber list. You can sign up here.
My aim for 2020 is to make a new flashcard every day. What's your aim?
wish you a happy and fabulous new year.

Happy New year Simon.
I want to thank you for teaching IELTS in such a wonderful manner.
I have finally achieved my dream score in IELTS
L 8.5
R 9.0
W 7.0
S 7.0
in last attempt I scored 6.5 in writing, and I was disappointed and felt that I would never achieve 7.0 in this module. but you helped a lot and I followed your advice and explained ideas in 3-4 sentences.
I also focused on giving a range of grammatical structures
i used
although ________ yet
while _________ but
unless
as
because of
could
would
might
can
continuous passive voice
compound sentences ( and, but)
with
after
prefixes
past indefinite tense (negative)
sentence beginning with a gerund
this really helped a lot :)
thank you once again
