Hi again,
I’ve added an updated list of IELTS speaking topics for May-August 2019. Remember that you shouldn’t attempt to memorise answers, but its a good idea to practice the topics in advance and speak naturally about them. I’ve tried to put them into topics which should help you with your revision. I’d advise taking one or two hours per category and developing your vocabulary for the topic.
