So, I was super anxious about IELTS speaking part 2, especially when it came to talking about personal topics. Honestly, I felt like I’d freeze up every time I got a cue card about a person or an event.
What changed for me was practicing with actual 2025 topics. I found that breaking down the cue card helped me organize my thoughts. Instead of panicking, I’d jot down three main points I wanted to cover. This way, I had a little structure, and it made speaking more natural.
I also started using flashcards with different topics. It’s a simple way to rehearse, and it builds confidence too. If anyone's got a list of recent IELTS speaking part 2 topics, please share! It’d be super helpful.
