1
Good evening.
2
This is an IELTS speaking test and I'm going to be your IELTS speaking examiner for today.
3
My name is Dana Kouba-Hitova.
4
Could you please tell me your full name?
5
My full name is Batyr Khan Erdolyat.
6
Okay, and what can I call you?
7
You just can call me Erdo.
8
Okay, Nata.
9
This speaking test will consist of three parts.
10
In the first part, I will ask you some general questions about you.
11
Let me first start by asking you about your occupation.
12
Can you tell me please, do you work or are you a student?
13
Well, to be honest, I'm kind of a gap year student.
14
I've got a part-time job and I do participate in a couple of courses as well.
15
generally I took up this work to meet my basic needs, like to have pocket money.
16
Okay.
17
And can you tell me a little bit about your home?
18
Do you live in an apartment or in a house?
19
I live in an apartment in the center of Astana, in a left bunk, to be precise.
20
Okay.
21
And what do you like about the place where you live in?
22
Well, I'm particularly passionate about generally the place.
23
I really love the infrastructure.
24
I'm the kind of person who loves urbanized places with everything around, with all the amenities and etc. Okay.
25
Let me ask you a few questions about tidiness.
26
Would you say you are a tidy person?
27
At least I'm not that graphic person.
28
I don't want to be like control freak, but I love when my surrounding is kind of structured as well.
29
So I just love when everything is in its place.
30
but I'm not over a perfectionist.
31
Okay, and did you used to keep your room tidy as a child?
32
I wouldn't say so.
33
I had always been very rebellious child and in my childhood in particular
34
all my room used to be very cluttered and everything was not in that place in the right place.
35
So my mom even didn't care about my room.
36
She didn't just, she used to just skip my room.
37
Okay, and how exactly do you keep things tidy?
38
There is kind of a basic rule for me.
39
I just put everything back in place.
40
I do not do kind of general cleanings or something like
41
that because it takes time time
42
and I kind of I don't I do not spend a lot of time at home
43
so I've not care about the tightness at home in my workplace only.
44
Okay let's talk about parks.
45
Do you like to go to parks?
46
Yeah I do love it a lot.
47
But sometimes it is quite complicated to carve out time for
48
like devoting a couple of windows for just going out simply
49
because I'm out of the zoo with all these tests that I've got now.
50
So I love it.
51
Okay.
52
And when was the last time you went to the park?
53
A couple of weeks ago with my sisters when I decided that I have to find the work and life balance.
54
But it was the wrong decision because I just skipped all the deadlines.
55
Okay.
56
And let's talk about cars.
57
type of cars do you like?
58
I'm not that car buff let's say I do not love particular types of cars
59
but being kind of accurate I would say let's I don't
60
know maybe gyps they would be comfortable both in a city and the countryside as well.
61
Okay what color car would you choose to buy?
62
Having always been a person who is quite say let's say quite intelligent
63
and at the same time have calm calm personality I would
64
say a lot kind of the combination of beige whites
65
or something dark since it reflects my personality traits do you
66
think car colors are generally important um zooming out a bit for some people it might be,
67
but generally I don't think that it matters a lot since you haven't got
68
that that blog car
69
and in in summer it might be very boiling in sight for some people it might be
70
because I do believe that generally the choices
71
that people do in daily basis is exactly what actually shows
72
their personality for example red colors can be meaning of very sharp personality while the other ones mean others.
73
Okay this is the end of part one now we'll be moving to part two.
74
And now we'll be moving to part two.
75
In this part I will give you a cue card
76
which has a topic and I will give you one minute to prepare for the topic
77
and then you will have two minutes to talk about it.
78
Here's your pen and paper and your one minute starts now.
79
Okay your one minute is up now.
80
I will give you two minutes to talk about the topic and you may start speaking now.
81
Okay now I'd like to talk about the technological problems that I faced many many months ago.
82
With hindsight I would like to give some background first.
83
My father had always been a person who has great capacity of knowledge
84
and he used to know very well how to raise up a child in the right way as well.
85
So it starts from that point.
86
I just, I very loved cars when I was a child
87
and I would tap everything that I saw
88
and in the car once I was tapping the infotainment system a lot
89
and somehow I managed to make it broke and after that my father saw it.
90
I was so devastated I thought that I'm gonna be that he is being turned off by me and generally
91
he was let down but apparently he didn't say nothing he didn't say nothing and
92
indeed he just told me that you have to fix it by yourself regardless how much time does it take and
93
at that particular moment I realized
94
that I have to do it by myself I watched a variety of YouTube videos where I saw how to fix it, how to fix it.
95
And right after I somehow managed to fix that, even though I was in hot water for quite a while,
96
he just let me be inside for a long time.
97
And at that point he managed to nurture a love of learning
98
and generally doing something by yourself only and actually
99
that was the turning point in my life when i understood
100
that the things that you do you should take the responsibility for
101
that and actually solve it so you cause no problems for other people
102
and take take a charge of yours okay thank you so much this is the end of part two
103
In the following part, I will ask you some more general questions related to the topic that we talked about before, which is technology and communication.
104
What are the differences between the technology of the past and that of today?
105
Technologies are improving with an alarming rate since it has been introduced.
106
And nowadays technologies are more of a tool
107
that is used for making the processes that human beings do much easier and generally automate them.
108
Whereas in the past technologies used to solve such problems that human beings couldn't.
109
And I guess that the main difference is
110
that nowadays people use their knowledge for and actually use technologies for making them easier for themselves,
111
while in the past it was not the case.
112
Okay, and what are the differences between making friends in real life and online?
113
That's also a question that is being begged for quite a while.
114
And I believe that if we make friends online, it can cause some repercussions in the future.
115
First of all, whenever we talk to someone online, it is unlikely that we are going to share some interest with them.
116
It is not a fact that we are going to have something in common.
117
And those kind of friends are not met, are met by coincidence, let's say.
118
Whereas if you meet friends face to face, then you kind of got to arrangements with particular purposes.
119
For example, volunteering projects, scientific projects, sports, for instance, as well.
120
And one more thing, whenever people face each other, then they have emotional bonds.
121
They will treat themselves emotionally.
122
So it means that they will have better connections than those who talk to each other online only.
123
Okay.
124
Does technological development have a negative impact on communication among people in general?
125
Could you come up again?
126
Okay.
127
Does technological development have a negative impact on communication among people?
128
Yeah, but I have to go a bit deeper.
129
I, technological advancements are a common case nowadays and one of them that I would like to mention is social media.
130
Social media is kind of a stepping stone that can be used for both benefits of individuals as for bad for them.
131
And social media nowadays cannot be used, cannot be utilized by those who are young in a proper way
132
and because of that social media kind of creating some benchmarks kind of creating some standards among people
133
and because of that the standards of friendship is rising as well
134
and whenever people for example talk on social media on social media
135
which is a case of technological advancement then they are likely
136
they are likely to not be aware of emotional situation of an individual
137
so they cannot support they cannot understand and listen properly
138
which is not gonna last long
139
which is not gonna make the friendship last long okay
140
and do you think technology unites or separates people totally depends yeah
141
it's like a poison it can be used both for the benefit
142
and for both it's kind of double sword again some people can utilize it in a way so it can benefit them.
143
For example, by using technology people can unite by, for example, in tech companies.
144
Tech companies do provide those people with great technologies, albeit they might not use them properly.
145
So whenever people talk about technologies,
146
they have to consider the fact that technologies should always be some things that have to be used in the right way.
147
Okay, thank you so much Nardolet.
148
This is the end of your speaking test.
149
In quite a moment I will start giving you your feedback.
150
Okay Nardolet, feedback time now and I will start giving you feedback part by part.
151
So let's start with part one.
152
I don't have much to say about your fluency
153
and coherence in you know all three parts so that's solid nine
154
but we will have some you know points to talk about uh in part three uh don't worry about
155
that but yeah overall it's nine don't have much to say for parts one
156
and two uh in terms of lexical resource it was almost
157
perfect couple of things to note is are um first of all with the word boiling
158
so as you know this is the one of those extreme words that that we use and that's why, do you need to say very before boiling?
159
Oh, right, did I?
160
What could be the alternative for very in this case?
161
Absolutely.
162
Exactly, right?
163
Absolutely boiling, extremely boiling and so on and so forth.
164
But that's a minor mistake, so don't worry about that.
165
Choices that people do, what do you think?
166
Yes, thank you.
167
Okay, I have one thing to clarify in terms of part two.
168
When you were talking about technological problem that you faced with, you mentioned the word make it broke.
169
Did you mean when you just broke it?
170
Okay, so that's something to note for a lexical resource then.
171
But overall because you managed to use really good and advanced vocabulary like double-edged sword and some topic vocabulary with part two,
172
I think I could potentially give you a 9 for lexical resource.
173
Now, let's talk about grammatical range and accuracy.
174
Some slips, very minor ones.
175
Let me start with I have always been a child and blah blah blah blah blah.
176
Well, since you are no longer a child, what would be the... Had always.
177
I said I had always.
178
Okay, okay, my bad.
179
Good.
180
Another thing, he didn't say nothing.
181
Yeah, that was...
182
I think you did notice that yourself because you wanted to correct yourself, but you didn't didn't
183
and I was like okay he knows what he's talking about all right what about
184
so what would be the correct version of it he didn't
185
think he didn't say a thing he didn't say anything right
186
or he said nothing nurture a love for learning nurtured a
187
love of learning love of learning exactly okay um he said
188
nurture a love for learning that's why i'm correcting it um
189
but yeah and and and last but not least social media creating
190
and you use the word creating not within a complex sentence like as in participles
191
but you use it as you know simple sentence
192
and that's why do you really say creating in this case no no right okay
193
so because we have a few errors like this
194
that will downgrade your score a little bit to 8.0 for grammatical range
195
and accuracy and for pronunciation i am giving you a nine actually
196
but i have a couple of points to to make um
197
so when you were talking about your favorite type of car
198
which was jip yes do we say jip
199
or do we say jeep yes exactly
200
because there's like you know there are there is double e in there
201
and what about the color do you remember the color did i say something beige beige right okay
202
so um make sure yes
203
and what about the word month month did i say wrong i think you said months
204
or something like that i've been working with it okay
205
so that's very minor
206
and i didn't notice any systematic errors with pronunciation your intonation was quite good
207
so I think I could still give you a nine
208
but not a solid one though overall we could round up to 8.5
209
which was a very good performance you should be proud of
210
yourself I know you're super hard on yourself please don't be
211
and this is actually a solid 8.5 it's um either lexical resource and pronunciation but I think potentially both could be 9.0.
212
So very good job on there.
213
I hope that people in the comments will agree with me, right?
214
Okay, this is the end of your speaking test.
215
Are you happy with the feedback?
216
I'm happy with the feedback.
217
Thank you so much.
218
If you want to ask me,
219
IELTS, IELTS, IELTS, IELTS, IELTS, IELTS.
220
Thank you very much.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
