How to use this IELTS Practice Timer

This free tool automates the strict timing rules used by examiners in the IELTS Speaking Test (Part 2), also known as the "Long Turn" or Cue Card section. It is designed to help you practice without needing to manually reset a phone alarm.

Phase 1: Preparation (1 Minute)

When you click start, the timer turns orange and counts down 60 seconds. In the real exam, the examiner will hand you a cue card, a pencil, and paper. Use this time strictly to write bullet points outlining your answer. Do not write full sentences.

Phase 2: Speaking (2 Minutes)

You will hear a chime, and the timer will automatically turn green and begin a 2-minute countdown. You must speak continuously for this duration to achieve a high band score (Band 7+). The timer will sound a final beep when your time is up.

Why practice with an automatic timer?

Many candidates lose points because they run out of things to say at the 90-second mark, or they are cut off by the examiner before finishing their main point. Using `ieltsspeakingtimer.com` daily helps build your internal biological clock, ensuring you naturally pace your story to fit exactly within the two-minute limit.
