Let’s start your IELTS practice! Speaking IELTS – Lesson 1 – Part 3

Part 3 – Strategies ü It is the most difficult part; ü It requires you to discuss ideas and develop your answers fully; ü Do not worry if you get very difficult questions. The examiners will ask more difficult questions if they think you are very good; ü The key is to attempt the question and do your best.

Part 3 – Understanding the questions ü Do not be afraid to ask the examiner two questions: ü Can you please repeat the question? ü What does “. . . ” mean? What are the drawbacks of low-cost air travel?

Part 3 – Attempt the question ü If you get a difficult question you should be very happy; ü Do not laugh or say something like ‘That’s a difficult question”; ü If you really have no idea, be honest with the examiner; ü Don’t be afraid to lie.

Part 3 – Develop your answer It is imperative that you fully address the question asked. ü Think of it as a Task 2 IELTS writing question. You need explanations and examples. The examiner must understand your position on the question; ü Very simply: ü Answer; ü Explain; ü Example / Personal story; ü Show the other side of it. (optional)

Part 3 – Develop your answer Example: ü Do you think advertising influence what people buy? ü Yes, it does. Here is why that is true. Here’s an example / personal story of why that’s true… ü No, it does not. Here is why that is true. Here’s an example / personal story of why that’s true… ü Combine the two above.

Part 3 – Develop your answer ü Do you think advertising influence what people buy? Some would say that it does because companies spend billions every year on advertising. Why would they do that if it doesn’t work? For example, Xxxx-Xxxx has billboards and TV advertisements in every country in the world and most people choose Xxxx if they want to buy a Xxxx. However, other’s would disagree and say that it doesn’t influence what people buy because there are thousands of smaller brands that have no advertising budget and they do just fine. I buy all of my clothes from a small charity shop obviously, it doesn’t spend too much money on ads.

Part 3 – Develop your answer ü Do not stick to one strategy rigidly. You’ll sound like a robot and you will focus more on strategy than answering the question: ü Practice: ü Answering the question; ü Explain why that is true; ü Use examples / personal stories; ü Showing the other side.
