Part two of the IELTS speaking test for a long time has caused a huge number of problems for students
2
but it doesn't have to be that way.
3
What I'm going to tell you in this video is a little secret
4
that most students don't know about part two of the speaking test
5
and understanding this information will mean the difference between you getting the score
6
that you need and not getting the score that you need.
7
So in this video I'm going to give you our unique part two IELTS speaking strategy
8
that has helped thousands of our students get the score
9
that they need by understanding what this secret is
10
and then applying a very simple step -by -step strategy that any student can learn and dramatically improve their score.
11
So in this video what we're going to do is first of all
12
we're going to look at the top reasons why students find this part of the speaking test
13
so difficult and then share that little secret with you.
14
Then we're gonna give you the strategy.
15
And finally, we're going to give you practice questions and some samples.
16
So in order to show you all of that, I'm gonna jump into my computer and show you everything.
17
Okay, so first what we need to do is we need to look at part two cue cards, particularly the format of those cue cards,
18
because this is going to give us the information
19
that we need to understand what the main problems are what this little secret is
20
and it is also going to help you understand
21
and implement our strategy
22
so at the start of part two the examiner will give you a cue card
23
and you'll have one minute to prepare your answer
24
and then you'll be expected to speak for up to two minutes
25
and don't worry the examiner will stop you when you get to in and around two minutes.
26
So at the top of every cue card, there is going to be a main topic.
27
This never changes.
28
And then it says below the main topic, it says you should say.
29
Again, this never changes.
30
And then there will be four bullet points.
31
Again, this never changes.
32
So this is a little gift to us because if there are parts of the IELTS test that never change,
33
That means that we can give the examiners exactly what they're looking for
34
because it's very predictable what is going to come up.
35
So we can come up with a predictable solution to these problems.
36
So let's have a look at a sample.
37
So you'll have to speak for around two minutes about the topic below.
38
Describe an interesting movie you watched recently.
39
You should say what genre the movie was, when you saw the movie, what was the movie about and explain why you found the movie interesting.
40
So again, main topic at the top, you should say, and four bullet points.
41
So let's look at a reason for failure.
42
There are two main reasons why students fail to do as well as they could.
43
So when I'm talking about failure, I'm talking about a student who should be getting a band seven or a band eight, but they're struggling.
44
They're getting a band six or 6 .5, not because their English isn't good enough but just because they're not using the right system,
45
not using the right strategy.
46
So reason for failure number one, students often run out of things to say.
47
So imagine you get this one and what happens is you talk about what genre the movie was,
48
when you saw it, that's about 20 seconds or 10 seconds, that leaves you with one minute 50 seconds remaining.
49
What was the movie about?
50
You talk about that for about 20 -30 seconds and then
51
that leaves you with more than a minute to explain why you find the movie interesting
52
and then you get to that last bullet point
53
and you just run out of things to say and that affects your fluency, that affects your coherence and this is the classic thing
54
that many many examiners see every single day
55
when they are examining is students get to bullet point number four
56
and they still have a lot of time left
57
and the student is like I don't know what to say
58
so that is going to dramatically lower your score if you do
59
that I'm sure many of you let me know in the comments is
60
that something that you have experienced yourself
61
so the reason number two for failure is students often get stuck on one
62
or more of the bullet points
63
so describe an interesting movie you watched recently what genre the movie was what does genre mean um
64
i don't know
65
so then you start getting very stressed out you start second guessing yourself
66
you start becoming unsure about what to say again that affects your fluency that affects your
67
coherence when you saw the movie and let's say oh i can't remember when i saw it
68
What was the movie about?
69
I've spoken to a lot of students and examined with many, many students who pick a movie or pick,
70
you know, the question might be talk about an interesting book
71
and they pick something that they don't really understand or they don't really know what to talk about.
72
I actually did this with a few different students in the past a question about movies
73
and they were like I fell asleep
74
so how are they going to speak about that movie
75
if they were asleep for most of it explain why you find
76
that movie interesting
77
and I didn't find it interesting I find it quite boring I don't know what to say
78
so the examiners are looking for your ability to speak for up to two minutes fluently
79
and coherently and if you are running out of things to say
80
or you find it very difficult to speak about at least one of these bullet points
81
then you are going to not get the score
82
that you really deserve because you're not doing what the examiners are looking for you to do.
83
So what is this little secret?
84
The secret is you don't have to speak about all four bullet points you can speak about them
85
if you want to it's no problem to speak about all four in order
86
that is absolutely fine but you do not have to
87
and this is really important information for you guys
88
because this gives you the freedom to create a different strategy
89
because what your strategy really is at the moment is speak about bullet point number one then number two then number three, then number four.
90
And as I've just shown you, that strategy does not work for the vast majority of students.
91
And they are designed, the bullet points are designed to help you, all right?
92
They're designed just to give you ideas to talk about.
93
However, most students believe that they must speak about all of them, which doesn't help them, it hinders them.
94
So this is often the case in many areas of the
95
IELTS test where Cambridge are doing something to actually help you
96
but the teacher or the student creates a strategy that hinders them
97
that doesn't use the help that they are actually giving you
98
so to repeat this because many of you
99
when I tell many of you about this you're still confused
100
you don't have to speak about all four bullet points you can speak about all four of them
101
if you want but you don't have to.
102
So what's the strategy that we use with our students
103
and this is the same strategy that we share with many of our VIP students
104
and it has led to thousands of them getting the scores that they need and dramatically improving their scores.
105
So the strategy overall 30 ,000 foot view strategy is
106
that do things that help you to speak for two minutes about the given topic as fluently
107
and as coherently as possible why do we use
108
that strategy what why is that our overall strategy
109
because that's what the examiners are looking for everything
110
we do at ielts advantage is examiner driven all
111
we do is show our students this is what the examiner is looking for
112
and this is how to give the examiners what they're looking for We don't give tips
113
and tricks and shortcuts and things like that.
114
We just teach you exactly what the examiners are looking for.
115
So before we give you the step -by -step strategy, you need to avoid anything that prevents you doing this.
116
So anything that stops you speaking for the given topic for up to two minutes as fluently
117
and as coherently as possible for you, you need to avoid these things.
118
So forcing yourself to talk about bullet points you don't know how to talk about.
119
Remember, you don't have to talk about all of them.
120
So if you see one that you don't feel comfortable talking about that one for whatever reason, just skip it, talk about something else.
121
Try to speak about each bullet point for an equal length of time.
122
You need to avoid this.
123
This is one of the worst pieces of advice you could ever give a student
124
because it makes their job so much more difficult
125
because it's impossible to speak about each of the four bullet points for 30 seconds equally each.
126
I can't do that.
127
I've never met another student who could do that.
128
So why would your teacher tell you to do that?
129
It's impossible.
130
Speaking about each bullet point and then having nothing else to say about before the two minutes are up.
131
So as we've shown you, just rushing through four of them and then having like a minute 30 left
132
or using a strategy that is very common online,
133
such as PPF, which might lead to you answering the question incoherently or running out of things to say.
134
PPF is an example of.. a tip a trick a shortcut students love these
135
because it supposedly makes things easier for them in the short run
136
but it leads to a huge amount of failure
137
so a lot of our vip students have failed the test multiple times
138
and when they come to us we ask them what what have you used before
139
and they say oh we used this ppf method for part two
140
and we say you know how did you do with that method
141
and he said well i got a question where i couldn't really think of anything to talk about the past
142
and i couldn't really think of anything for the future
143
so ppf stands for past present future uh what happens
144
if you get a question where you cannot talk about the past
145
or you cannot talk about the future
146
that severely limits your ability to give the examiners what they want
147
so just because you see a tip or a trick
148
or a shortcut or something
149
that has millions of views on youtube doesn't mean it is actually going to satisfy the examiners
150
so what is the examiner looking for they're judging your ability to speak fluently
151
and coherently for up to two minutes this also gives them a chance to evaluate the other three criteria
152
so the first criteria they are thinking about is fluency
153
and coherence but they're also thinking about pronunciation they're also thinking about grammar
154
and they're also thinking about lexical resource which means vocabulary.
155
So you're speaking for up to two minutes.
156
This gives the examiner a chance to sit back and really listen to you,
157
which would indicate that part two is extremely important because if you are messing up this question,
158
you're not only lowering your fluency and your coherence scores, you're probably also lowering your grammar score, your vocabulary score, and your pronunciation score.
159
So it's extremely important to get this right.
160
And students who follow our strategy not only nail fluency
161
and coherence they do really well in the other three marking criteria
162
because they're just speaking naturally and fluently and giving the examiners what they want
163
so how do we do this number one make sure you always talk about the main topic
164
so i've showed you this a couple of times i'll also show it to you at the end
165
when we give you the sample questions, make sure you talk about that main topic for the two minutes.
166
Don't deviate from that main topic.
167
Pick the bullet points you feel comfortable talking about.
168
Remember, Cambridge, IELTS are trying to help you with these bullet points.
169
So pick out of the four, which one, two, three, or four do you feel very comfortable talking about?
170
What does comfortable mean easy.
171
It's easy for you to talk about those things.
172
It's easy for you to think about them.
173
It's easy for you to articulate them.
174
Number three, ignore the rest.
175
If there are one, two, three, or even four of the bullet points you don't feel comfortable talking about, ignore them.
176
Feel free to just delete them with a pencil.
177
Choose other things related to the topic that that you feel comfortable talking about.
178
So what this does is it gives you the freedom
179
to talk about the main topic in the way that you feel comfortable talking about.
180
So you don't have to use all of these.
181
I'm just giving you examples of other things that you could talk about.
182
You could introduce the topic.
183
You could provide details about the topic.
184
You could tell a personal story.
185
You could state how you feel about it.
186
You could talk about the past.
187
You could talk about the future or anything else you feel comfortable talking about related to the main topic.
188
So you're not going to talk about all of these.
189
What I'm doing is I'm giving you a wide range of tools in your toolbox.
190
Because if I just gave you a hammer and a saw and told you to go and build a house,
191
you would not be able to build a house.
192
You need many, many, many different tools in order to build a house just like part two
193
you need a range of different things to talk about in order to talk about them fluently
194
and coherently so let's have a look choose an ad
195
so describe something you own
196
which is very important to you you should say where you got
197
it how long you've had it say what you use it for
198
and say why it's important to you
199
so what I'm going to be doing in the one minute before
200
I'm speaking i'm going to be looking at these
201
and picking the ones that i feel comfortable talking about
202
so what i'm going to do is talk about my mobile phone
203
because it's the first thing that i saw on my desk
204
so where you got it i got it in the apple store i'm going to talk about
205
that because it's easy to talk about
206
but that's going to take me less than five seconds to talk about and I need to be aware of that.
207
Say how long you've had it.
208
i can't remember how long i've had it
209
so i don't feel comfortable talking about that
210
because it's i'm going to be really thinking about that
211
and i don't want to be thinking too much
212
i want to be speaking fluently say what you use it for that's really easy for me to talk about
213
because i use it for my job i use it to communicate with my team to make this video
214
and right now and all sorts of other things
215
and in my job
216
so that's no problem say it's why it's important to you it's really important to me for my job
217
so I'm not going to use bullet point number four
218
because I don't want to be repeating the same things because
219
that might lower my score for fluency
220
and it might lower my score for coherence again we need to be thinking not only about pronunciation grammar vocabulary
221
but we need to be thinking about fluency and coherence and how our brain works.
222
If we are nervous, we are stressed, we are uncomfortable, we're thinking too much,
223
it doesn't allow us to speak fluently and coherently.
224
So what are things that I could add that are more comfortable for me to talk about?
225
So I'm gonna talk about bullet point number one and number three,
226
and then I'm also gonna talk about a new model you'll buy in the future
227
because this week there's rumors about the iPhone 13
228
or something coming out and it has a much better camera
229
and a much better microphone and those are the two things that I really want.
230
So I'm gonna talk about that one.
231
Tell a story about when it broke.
232
So when my phone breaks, it is a disaster because I can't work.
233
So I have a easy story that I can tell that will allow me to speak fluently.
234
And then finally, I probably won't need this one
235
because I probably won't get to this one before the two minutes and the examiner will stop me before the two minutes.
236
But what I like to do is just add in one more thing because it removes any doubt, any nervousness, any fear.
237
And I know that I can provide a review of this product very easily at the end if I get there,
238
but I probably won't even need this bullet point.
239
So as you can see, using this strategy, what it does is it provides you with a huge amount of freedom to just do the job
240
that you're supposed to do.
241
It doesn't put any barriers in your way.
242
It doesn't give you tips and tricks that don't really work.
243
It doesn't make your job more difficult.
244
It just makes everything much, much easier.
245
So let's have a look at some sample questions.
246
All right, so I'm going to use this sample question, and I'm going to use the old method, which is what most students do,
247
which is just do bullet point number one, then two, then three, then four.
248
All right, so describe a well -known entrepreneur.
249
You should say who the person is, what kind of business this person runs, what you know about this person,
250
and explain what you think about this person.
251
So I'm going to try and put myself in the position, if I was a student doing the real test, what would I say?
252
Okay, so I'm going to talk about Elon Musk and the kind of business that this person runs.
253
Well, he runs many, many businesses.
254
He runs SpaceX, he runs
255
Tesla, he runs
256
The Boring Company.
257
He runs, there's one that he runs
258
that is to do with inserting things into your brain
259
and he also runs a company called SolarCity and he founded PayPal as well.
260
What do you know about this person?
261
Well, as I already said, he runs lots and lots of businesses.
262
Okay, explain what you think about this person.
263
Well, I really admire this person because he runs all of these really successful businesses
264
so let's have a look at what I did there and
265
so who this person is I introduced who this person was
266
but that took me two seconds so in the student's mind
267
and we know this because we work with our students really closely
268
and we talk to them like what were you thinking here what were you thinking here
269
if the first bullet point takes you two seconds what you're like oh oh my God,
270
I've wasted one bullet point and I'm going to run out of time.
271
So the nervousness, the stress, the fear, the doubt starts to build.
272
What kind of business this person runs?
273
So I just answered that question naturally.
274
And what I did was I just listed lots and lots and lots and lots of businesses.
275
And generally in the speaking test, you should avoid just listing things because it doesn't really take a,
276
the you know a great range of grammar and vocabulary
277
and to to just list lots of businesses like most people are able to do
278
that that's not really testing your ability to communicate clearly in English what you know about this person
279
and then I started to repeat myself so I'm like oh well I know
280
that he owns lots of businesses and he found it
281
and that's kind of why he's famous so I just repeated myself
282
and now I'm getting even more nervous because I know that I shouldn't repeat myself.
283
Explain what you think about this person.
284
Now I'm so nervous, so frustrated, so full of fear and doubt that I just start repeating myself again.
285
I completely lose track of time and it's really uncomfortable for me to talk about that one.
286
So it's a disaster.
287
So even though I have the ability to speak clearly in English and I have no problem answering these questions, using a method
288
that doesn't work hinders me it puts barriers in front of me it makes me jump through hoops
289
so you should never do anything on the IELTS test
290
that makes it more difficult for you to give the examiners what they want
291
so using our strategy let's look at why this strategy works
292
and how easy it is
293
so you should say who this person is I'm not going to talk about the other bullet points,
294
what I'm going to talk about are two companies that I know a lot about.
295
I don't know much about the other companies that he runs, but I know a lot about SpaceX and Tesla.
296
So he runs other companies, but I'm going to talk about those two because those are the two that I feel most comfortable talking about.
297
So I'm still talking about a well -known entrepreneur because I'm talking about his two main companies.
298
The thing
299
that he has taught me in my business is you are paid in proportion to the size of the problems
300
that you solve and a business is really just solving big problems so that is what I'm going to talk about.
301
Why I admire him it's very easy for me to talk about
302
that because I genuinely do admire him
303
and what he will do in the future I probably won't get to this before the two minutes
304
but again I like to add something in there and that makes it easy for me to talk about it.
305
So what I'm going to do now is demonstrate that strategy.
306
So the entrepreneur
307
that I'm going to speak about is a person called Elon
308
Musk who in 2021 became one of the richest people in the entire world and this was principally because of his company
309
Tesla which is an electric car company but he's also quite famous for the company SpaceX which is a space exploration company.
310
The thing that Elon Musk has taught me about business is
311
that you are paid in proportion to the size of the problems that you solve.
312
So when Elon Musk was in his early 20s, he thought about the two biggest problems that the world faced.
313
One was climate change and the other one was the inability for us to become an interplanetary species.
314
So if there was some kind of event that threatened life on Earth, we wouldn't be able to actually survive.
315
The other reason why I really admire Elon Musk is he's one of the only entrepreneurs
316
that speaks very openly and honestly about how hard he works.
317
And he actually backs it up with a huge amount of work.
318
He is famous for working seven days a week, 12 to 16 hours a day,
319
and he has done that for 20 years or something like that.
320
And I truly believe that that has helped me in my business
321
because I inspire my team to work extremely hard and I believe the harder I work,
322
the more successful my company becomes.
323
In the future, Elon Musk will probably change the world significantly for two reasons.
324
Number one, he will probably achieve his goal of getting people to Mars, which is very exciting.
325
And secondly, he will probably also achieve a major milestone for autonomous cars
326
which is full self -driving mode so cars will basically drive themselves.
327
Okay so that was around two minutes
328
and I would not be able to do that without using this strategy
329
but one thing I would warn you is
330
that you can't just look at this strategy and then go into the test tomorrow and perform at the highest level.
331
What you will have to do is go and find some real questions
332
so this is one of the books that you will have to get
333
ielts academic 15 or any of the other ones use real questions
334
and i don't have any affiliation with cambridge they don't pay me money
335
or anything like that the reason why i suggest these books is because these are questions that reflect the real test
336
And if you use fake questions, you'll get questions that have topics in them that are really, really, really difficult.
337
But if you have a look at these books, you'll see that the questions are not that difficult, which will really help you prepare properly.
338
So you need to get real questions,
339
use this strategy, and practice using this strategy until the point where you don't even have to think about the strategy.
340
You just do it naturally.
341
Just like tying your shoelaces.
342
You don't tie your shoelaces and think about what you're doing.
343
You just do it automatically.
344
Practice it until it becomes automatic.
345
All right, let's give you guys some practice questions here and a little task.
346
So this is your turn.
347
Look at the question below.
348
And what I would like you to do is don't take one minute.
349
When you're practicing, take as much time as you need when you're first learning a new strategy
350
and then try and get faster and faster and faster at it.
351
So don't try and do it in one minute.
352
Take two minutes, three minutes, four minutes, five minutes.
353
Really focus on learning the strategy rather than trying to do it at exam speed.
354
You wouldn't, when you're first learning to drive a car, drive it at top speed.
355
You do it at 10 miles an hour, then 20, then 30, then 40, then 50.
356
That's what you should be doing in all parts of the IELTS test.
357
Start slowly, focus on mastering each technique, each strategy, and then try to get faster.
358
So in the comments, what I would like you to do is show me your little plan.
359
So this was my plan.
360
These were the things that I wanted to talk about.
361
I want you to do the same thing.
362
I want you to look at the question, look at the main topic,

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest

Der Sprecher verwendet 147 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel I'm, don't, you're. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.

  • Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: genre /ˈ(d)ʒɑnɹə/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, proportion /pɹəˈpɔɹʃən/, rush /ɹʌʃ/, preparation /ˌpɹɛpəˈɹeɪʃ(ə)n/
  • Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: examiner /əɡˈzæmɪnɚ/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, entrepreneur /ˌɑn.tɹə.pɹəˈnɝ/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/

Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:

  • /w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): equally /ˈiːkwəli/, warn /woɹn/
  • Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: solve /sɒlv/, confused /kənˈfjuːzd/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/, pause /pɔːz/
  • /æ/ — offener als „ä“: examiner /əɡˈzæmɪnɚ/, grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, examine /ɪɡˈzæmɪn/

So übst du mit diesem Video

  1. Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
  2. Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
  3. Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie bullet, examiner, topic.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
