1
Okay, let's get started.
2
To begin, can you tell me your full name?
3
I'm Hyo-in Kim, but you can also call me Chloe,
4
which is my English name.
5
Okay, sure.
6
And are you working or studying right now?
7
I'm currently a student.
8
I go to the University of Toronto in Canada,
9
and I just completed my second year there.
10
I major in the book and media studies.
11
Okay.
12
Do you enjoy your studies?
13
Yes, definitely, because I'm very passionate about media.
14
And when I finish studying,
15
I want to work in one of those contemporary digital companies,
16
media companies like Netflix, Instagram, TikTok.
17
So I definitely enjoy what I'm learning right now.
18
Yeah.
19
And what do you enjoy doing in your free time?
20
In my free time, I like to watch YouTube videos.
21
Also, the short like reels on Instagram,
22
it's very fun to watch.
23
and I also love to listen to music,
24
find new songs, and not only that but I also like to dance to the music so I enjoy that a lot.
25
And what is your hometown?
26
My hometown is is BUNDANG in Korea.
27
It's quite close to Seoul.
28
Yeah, and like the air there is more clean and it's like a nice neighborhood.
29
So I don't live there anymore,
30
but I like to go there often once in a while.
31
Yeah.
32
What things do you like about your hometown?
33
As I mentioned, I definitely like how it's a very quiet and comforting neighbourhood.
34
It's more safe and the scenery or the nature there is nice to look at as well.
35
So I like to visit there.
36
And what things do you not like about it?
37
I think it could be quite inconvenient at times because it's not really in the middle of the city.
38
So if I want to get around or if I want to hang out with my friends,
39
it's quite far away from the popular areas,
40
which is like Gangnam or Hongdae.
41
Okay, good.
42
Now let's talk about public transportation.
43
Do people usually use public transportation in your country?
44
Definitely yes because the public transportation here in Korea,
45
it's very convenient and I know all my friends,
46
we don't have a car yet so we like to get around places with using like the metro or the buses.
47
Even like the taxis are very affordable I think compared to like America or Canada
48
and you can just call them through using those apps yeah
49
okay what do you want to change about the public transport in In Korea?
50
In Korea, yeah.
51
I think maybe for people who are not from Korea,
52
it could be at times maybe quite confusing.
53
So maybe for the foreigners,
54
it'd be nice if there are more translation applications
55
available or more signs in English as well maybe some kind of platform
56
or services available for people who are not from Korea.
57
And will you ride public transportation in the future?
58
Yes because even now when I'm trying to go out to places I always use the metro
59
so I would always be using it even in the future.
60
Okay that will do us for part one and now we can move on to part two.
61
So to begin you're gonna have one question
62
and I'll give you a minute to prepare and here's a pen to take notes.
63
This is your question and in a minute we'll go ahead and get started.
64
All right, that's a minute.
65
So you're going to describe a person who often helps others.
66
So this person is my middle sister.
67
She's eight years older than me.
68
And she's like such a smart individual and also just her true personality as such a caring person, loving person.
69
She loves to just care for the people who she loves.
70
So not only that, but she wants to,
71
she's actually doing her in the process of completing her PhD degree.
72
So she wants to become a professor
73
and she's very into education she's passionate about it
74
so as i was growing up she would just be like a sort of role model
75
and a teacher for me she would just teach me how
76
to write how to read how to organize stuff everything
77
and i just look up to her a lot
78
and i definitely have a lot of love for her because
79
because I just have so much to learn from her and seeing how she treats others and the people around her,
80
it's very inspiring and it just warms up my heart a lot.
81
Okay.
82
All right, we can move on to part three now.
83
So, why are some people willing to help others?
84
I think it could be due to several different reasons.
85
It definitely depends on who that person is.
86
But for one, personally, I like to help others because it gives me a sense of satisfaction.
87
Because I think growing up,
88
people learn about things like morals and principles.
89
And knowing that you did a good thing and you brought a positive change to the world,
90
I think it gives you that sense of like a good feeling
91
that you did something good today yeah okay
92
and in what kinds of professions do people like to help others more um i think that
93
maybe uh people who are in the medical field or people who are in the who are in the police
94
police field yeah or um uh i think
95
but i think uh people just in many different careers they could help others in many ways
96
so i think to a degree to an extent it could be like any career or job.
97
Who should teach children to help others?
98
Parents or teachers?
99
I believe teachers are more
100
fitted to help to teach children because with parents I think there's the fact
101
that there can be be a sort of personal sense to how you see your children.
102
So if they're not doing well when you're teaching them,
103
you can get more frustrated because you know how much you believe in your child
104
and you could have a lot of expectations for them.
105
So with teachers, it's their job and it's their expertise.
106
So I think it's more suitable to let your children be educated by professionals.
107
Okay, good.
108
And do people nowadays help others more than they did in the past? That...
109
I never really thought about that question,
110
but I think to an extent,
111
maybe
112
people help others less in the current contemporary society because
113
when I see people just around me I feel like today like the society is
114
so fast moving and people are so busy to just and they don't really have time to care for others.
115
I feel even students we have to compete a lot to succeed
116
and be better than our peers and I think that's a lot of pressure
117
so I feel like people are becoming more they care more about themselves than as like a collective society.
118
Okay, good.
119
We made it to the end.
120
Good job.
121
That was a very good test and now we can do a little bit of feedback.
122
So, as you probably know, there are four categories.
123
There's fluency and coherence.
124
There's pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar.
125
I think you did well in all of these categories,
126
but we can talk about them each briefly on their own.
127
Fluency is really no problem.
128
Pronunciation as well.
129
I can tell you've spent a lot of time in an English speaking environment because it's all very natural and native-like,
130
so that's very good.
131
More good news, your vocabulary and grammar are also very good.
132
There's not really any errors I noticed the only thing that is possible is to slightly increase the range.
133
So your vocabulary is very accurate,
134
but another part of that is how wide it is,
135
how many idioms and really advanced words that you can use.
136
So I think there's a few places where you could have found a more accurate and more advanced word.
137
In part three, I think was a good example.
138
The last question when you were thinking of people working alone or working collectively,
139
I think you might have been looking for individualistic as a word.
140
And in the first question in part three,
141
the field that you might have been describing is maybe the service industry,
142
service and medical professions.
143
But having all of those words just on immediately in command is very good.
144
In terms of grammar, I mean I guess you could use more unusual tenses
145
but your grammar is very good and I understood everything so I think you did a very good job.
146
One only other bit is in part three it's generally a good idea to not use a personal example
147
the questions are all structured so you can sort of talk about society
148
and talk in general about other people
149
but i think it was the first question about people willing
150
to help others where you discussed sort of how you would
151
do it in the real test it's a good idea to avoid using a personal example
152
and just sort of talk about other people in general yeah but like i said it was a really good test.
153
I would estimate your score at 8.5 for today.
154
And yeah, so thanks for coming in.
155
Really good job.
156
Thank you.

¿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.
