The hottest IELTS writing topics can vary from time to time as current events and trends influence them. However, some recurring topics include climate change, technology, education, health, and social issues. It's essential to stay updated with global news and current affairs to be well-prepared for any potential IELTS writing topic.

In today's podcast, we look at the role of a traditional TV and how its value in a household has changed. Families continue to bond but in different ways. As a family, we no longer value the idyllic scene of watching television together. Portable devices such as tablets, laptops, and smartphones have set a new precedent.

One2one Academy:Work smarter, not harder.

Welcome to this one-on-one podcast. Numbers are and always will be one of those topics with limited online materials.

This is one of the main reasons I wanted to provide help, which I hope you will find valuable if you are preparing for an English exam.

Before I begin, let me explain the format. I will read sentences in a similar style to the IELTS listening exam format. The task is simple: listen and write down the numbers you hear.

I have provided the text on our blog to simplify this task, so you only have to fill in the missing numbers.

I will also provide the answers so you can check your work. There will be more recordings, which will bepremium, coming soon and exclusively available onSpotify. This may suit students needing more practice with numbers to prepare for an exam.

Episode 2

Some students assume that Business English is a different language. It seems frustrating at the best of times that after passing exams, integration into a work environment is challenging. One word will help define this, and it's; "formality".

Simply put, there are three main considerations: high, medium, and low, otherwise known as Very formal, semi-formal, and casual. The type of organisation that you work for depicts the business tone.

In this episode, I will show you some business compound prepositions, business Phrasal verbs, how empathetic voice tones can make a difference and slang used in a work environment.
