Hi guys.
Thanks for watching this video today.
We are talking about something super, super important.
Three ways to impress the examiner on Speaking Part Three.
Okay.
If you are a subscriber to this YouTube channel, you have already heard my ideas about how
to organize your Speaking Part Three answer.
So, let me sum it up for you in case you have not seen that video.
First, you must give your opinion about the question straight away, first sentence.
Give your direct opinion related to the question.
Then, support your opinion with specific examples and details.
Get as specific as possible, real people, real places, real times.
We need details.
If you give the examiner strong, specific details, this does a couple things for your
score.
It increases your vocabulary score because that becomes more specific and impressive,
and it increases your fluency and coherent score because you are relating strong ideas.
Okay?
You give specific details and examples and then, one sentence conclusion, very short.
All right?
To get more examples about this, please watch my other YouTube video about Speaking Part
Three organization.
So, why does this impress the examiner?
Well, guys, the examiner has a job to do, okay?
They must ask you three to six questions in Speaking Part Three.
Speaking Part Three is only four to five minutes.
You cannot talk for too long.
If you don't stick to strict organization, you end up wandering off topic and you end
up repeating yourself.
Both of those things decrease your score.
Strategy number one to impress the examiner, organize yourself strictly.
All right.
Number two, the second way to impress the examiner is by presenting interesting ideas
you guys.
This connects to the specific details and examples.
If you listen to our podcast, we talk about creating a culture of thinking.
Guys, you have to do this in order to have something to say in Speaking Part Three and
Writing Task Two.
You need to have opinions and knowledge and your own thoughts about IELTS topics like
education, employment, travel, society, culture, business.
Guys, all of these things you can read about and prepare for in the newspaper.
Please, guys, start today.
Develop your ideas.
It's not only for high IELTS scores.
It's also for your personal fulfillment and your successful integration in the future
in your target culture in English.
All right?
So number two is develop a culture of thinking.
Please read the news.
I suggest the New York Times.
That is my favorite, favorite newspaper.
If you wanna go British then The Guardian is also excellent.
Number three, impressing the examiner with your vocabulary, two parts to this, guys.
Number one, you have to show the examiner high level linking words.
These are the same linking words you use in Writing Task Two.
I know it's not natural.
We don't talk like this in real life, but guys it's a test interview.
It's not real life.
There are some things you have to do which are not natural.
That's fine.
Just give the examiner what they want to give you a high score.
Linking words like, "in addition," "moreover," "nevertheless," all of those type transition
phrases you have to practice using in your Speaking Part Three answers.
All right, so that's the first part.
The second part of impressive vocabulary is, of course, strong, specific high level interesting
words.
Where do you get those?
Duh duh duh, the newspaper, you guys.
It all comes back to the newspaper.
Read.
Read, read, read.
Practice, practice, practice.
Okay.
So we've gone over three very specific strategies today.
Please take notes on this video, watch it a couple times, use it in your IELTS practice.
