I'm currently working on a new video: "How to Improve Your B2 First Speaking Score Quickly"
Although it's aimed at Cambridge B2 candidates, many of the ideas are useful for anyone who wants to sound more natural and confident in spoken English.
We'll look at:
✅ Better answers for common speaking topics
✅ Natural expressions such as "hustle and bustle" and "peace and quiet"
✅ Useful structures for expressing opinions, regrets and hypothetical situations
✅ Ways to make discussions sound more natural and interactive
Even if you're not taking a Cambridge exam, there should be plenty of useful spoken English in this one.
And don't worry — there will be more shadowing lessons and fast spoken English videos coming once the exam season starts to quieten down in late July.
