IELTS Reading Improvement Plan
Thời lượng: 3–4 weeks · Thời gian mỗi ngày: 1.5 h · Mục tiêu: reading +1.0
Lộ trình này dành cho ai
Reading is your bottleneck — you run out of time or bleed points on T/F/NG and headings. This plan installs a location system and a per-passage time budget.
Nguyên tắc cốt lõi
IELTS reading is a LOCATION task before a comprehension task: find where the answer lives, then read that part deeply. Skim the structure, scan for keywords and their synonyms, budget time by question mix.

Thói quen hàng ngày
Buổi sáng: Read one passage or transcript aloud for 10 minutes before anything else — mouth and ear before eyes.
Trước khi ngủ: Before bed, review the words you collected today from wrong answers (5–10 minutes, no new material).
Tự đánh giá hàng tuần
- Finishing inside 60 minutes yet? Where does time leak?
- T/F/NG: are your errors FALSE-vs-NOT-GIVEN confusions? That is a method gap, not a vocabulary gap.
