🔊 IELTS Pronunciation Band 7: Sentence Stress, Chunking & Intonation

A complete IELTS pronunciation lesson for candidates who want band 7 or higher in Speaking. It explains what examiners actually listen for, then teaches the five features that lift a pronunciation score: word stress, sentence stress, weak forms and connected speech, chunking for the Part 2 long turn, and intonation for opinions, lists, contrasts and questions in Part 3. Every feature comes with marked-up example sentences, and a full Part 2 answer is shown both with stress and chunk marks and flat so you can hear the difference. You also get a minimal-pairs table for the sounds that most often reduce intelligibility, a record-shadow-compare self-recording protocol, interactive practice with answer keys, a common-mistakes table, a 10-minute daily drill and a final quiz. Ideal for self-study between one-to-one IELTS lessons.
