1
In the first part of the exam, I will ask you some personal questions.
2
First, I'd like to ask you about studying.
3
Do you work or study?
4
I currently work, but I've been studying till the last year.
5
And I have studied English translation, actually, at the university.
6
and what is or what was the most interesting part of this major?
7
I think literature.
8
We had poetry courses, we had literature courses,
9
and I really enjoyed those courses in our college years, university years.
10
And what kinds of majors do the people in your country study?
11
All kinds of major, I think.
12
But I think medical majors are very popular nowadays in our country.
13
But it used to be engineering, I think.
14
Now, let's move on to talk about languages.
15
Can learning languages help us?
16
Learning languages help us.
17
Yeah, of course.
18
They help us in many ways in being able to connect with the world and being able to learn about other cultures.
19
It helps in all sorts of ways.
20
And have you ever learned a new language, or do you wish to?
21
Yes, I have tried to learn Spanish, and I have also tried to learn some Turkish, but I'm not really fluent in those languages.
22
But, yeah, I think it's a really fun experiment.
23
Does knowing languages allow effective conversations?
24
Of course, that's how we connect.
25
We use language through language, we connect with other people.
26
And knowing the language and actually knowing the culture of language would significantly help us to better connect with other people.
27
Now let's move on to talk about smiles.
28
Smiles?
29
Yes.
30
What are the things that make you smile?
31
Lots of things.
32
There could be lots of occasions.
33
Like seeing a little girl picking a flower and giving it to her mom would make me smile.
34
Seeing someone doing some acts of kindness.
35
Cats, I don't You know,
36
seeing like when people playing football, yeah, things I like.
37
And when was the last time someone smiled at you?
38
I think just in the beginning of our conversation, you had a beautiful smile and you smiled at me.
39
I think that was the last one.
40
Do you like to smile while posing for photos?
41
Actually, I get really awkward, like for posing in front of cameras.
42
I'm not really good in front of the camera,
43
so I might sound a little bit clumsy to the photographer or videographer.
44
Why do you think so?
45
Because I think I'm more of an introverted kind of person.
46
And because of that, I am not really comfortable sharing and coming out in front of the people.
47
All right.
48
Now, that's the end for part one.
49
For part two, I'm going to give you a topic.
50
And I'd like you to talk about it for up to two minutes.
51
Before you talk, you'll have one minute to think about what you're going to say.
52
And you can make notes if you wish.
53
Do you understand?
54
Yes, I do.
55
All right.
56
You can take some paper and a pencil to make notes. And here's your topic.
57
I'd like you to describe a big company in your hometown that employs a lot of people.
58
Here's your cue card.
59
Thank you.
60
Thank you.
61
Your one minute preparation time is over and you can start speaking right now.
62
All right.
63
So a big company that employs lots of people has lots of staff.
64
And my My hometown is Ligicala, that comes to my mind.
65
It is a very big company and they actually started as an online market for buying phones.
66
But they expanded after that and included all sorts of products in their store.
67
And people now can almost find any sort of products there and it somehow could be considered the Amazon of Iran.
68
The headquarters for the company is located in Tehran,
69
but they have offices throughout the whole country.
70
I think they provide lots of opportunities for working
71
and from like the staff in marketing and they have people in production
72
and they have a wide distribution system
73
and they will deliver the packages throughout the whole country so
74
that takes lots of energy and that takes lots of effort and i think
75
I think they actually might spoil the citizens
76
because they can buy anything online and get them delivered to them in just a matter of minutes or days.
77
and the disadvantage is I think of online shops you might not always get the actual product
78
that you see on the website and you might actually get delivered the wrong order
79
or you might actually get the whole different product
80
and you have to send it back and yeah some confusions may happen there
81
and yeah uh did you have the experience of buying online from that company that you mentioned
82
yes actually i've been uh actually i've been a customer of the website for years
83
and yeah i have bought different kind of products
84
but mainly uh technology related products like hard drives and things like
85
that all right thank you so much that's the end of part two please hand me back Yes, paper, the cue cards, and the pen.
86
And now let's move on to the third and the final part.
87
All right.
88
We've been talking about a big company in your hometown that employs a lot of people.
89
And now I'd like to ask you some questions related to this.
90
What is the benefit of working in large companies?
91
You, I think when you work in a big company, you become a part of a community
92
and you have the advantage of meeting people and at work
93
and you can have like group activities as a company or
94
or you can go on and have a holiday with your co-workers.
95
Do you think the work environment or work culture plays an important role at a firm?
96
Of course, like where we work,
97
the atmosphere that is dominant in our workspace could really affect how we do our jobs.
98
So I think that plays an important role
99
and companies should actually dedicate considerable amounts of effort into making the working atmosphere as friendly and productive as they can.
100
And do big organizations provide better opportunities than smaller organizations?
101
It depends, not necessarily.
102
I think you could do good in a local business.
103
You could do even better on a big company.
104
It depends on the person, actually, I think.
105
And it could be different for individuals.
106
And has technology become inseparable at workplaces today?
107
I do think so, yes.
108
I think wherever you go these days, you will find a computer sitting on a desk.
109
And it's an inseparable part of businesses today.
110
And I think technology has helped us a lot.
111
And we do not have to do menial things ourselves.
112
And we don't have to sometimes think about some problems.
113
And the computer will do the thinking for us.
114
And what do you think the future of technology at the workplace would be?
115
To be cynical, to see the half empty part of the situation,
116
we people might not have any kind of job, so not being in a workplace to start with.
117
But to be optimistic and to see the half full,
118
we don't have to do any kind of menial and ordinary jobs and we do the creative and fun part.
119
Thank you very much.
120
That's the end of the speaking test.
121
Please give me two minutes to review your performance and we'll get back to you with the feedback.
122
Thank you for your time.
123
Do you want to know what band score you'll get in the IELTS speaking test?
124
Perhaps you want to improve your performance and prepare yourself for the real test.
125
Then why not book an online mock test with us that will last for 25 minutes,
126
12 minutes of the test itself and 13 minutes of comprehensive feedback.
127
Plus, we'll give you useful tips on how to make your performance better.
128
So, we know how to help you.
129
Join us.
130
Okay, that was a lot of talking.
131
Do you have any questions?
132
No, thank you very much.
133
I really appreciate that you give me this feedback because I know this will help me.
134
This is exactly what I need.
135
Welcome back.
136
I did review your performance based on the four criteria or band descriptors, fluency and coherence, lexical resource,
137
grammatical range and accuracy and pronunciation to be straight forward with you.
138
You were great.
139
All of those four criteria, you demonstrated a great capability to overcome all of the challenges and also maintain the flow of speech.
140
Let's begin with the fluency part.
141
you did have minor hesitations and all of those hesitations have nothing to do with language.
142
You were searching for ideas and as long as it's not language related, it's okay.
143
So it's content related.
144
You are trying to come up with the ideas and the right way of expressing your answers.
145
It's okay.
146
Those are natural hesitations, which everybody, even those speaking English as their mother tongue, they face such issues as well.
147
Lexical resource, nothing, no issues to mention, no shortcomings, no problems.
148
And I've jotted down all of the great and strong points that you demonstrated it.
149
You used act of kindness, which is a great way of referring to the question that I asked you.
150
You used some advanced words like clumsy, introverted.
151
You also used some idiomatic language.
152
You said nowadays with CPC sitting on a desk of every company.
153
You also said half empty, half full.
154
This colloquial language is needed to enhance your band score, and you really rocked it.
155
Thank you so much.
156
And then also used appropriate collocations.
157
You said, provide opportunities, deliver packages in a matter of minutes, in a matter of days,
158
dominance dedicate a considerable amount of time
159
and none of them were faked none of them were unnatural
160
they're all natural they're not memorized there's something we call a
161
memorized language you intentionally sometimes try to use some words
162
or terms that are you have memorized and you search for occasions or opportunities to try to use them,
163
but none of this happened today,
164
and you used all of those collocations and terms and words naturally.
165
Grammar, flawless.
166
There's one single issue, which I know you were a little bit nervous or stressed out.
167
You said A online, N online.
168
And then you use some redundancies like throughout the whole country.
169
When you say throughout, it's throughout the country or in the whole country.
170
And then, yes, but you need to also use complex structures.
171
You missed out on that.
172
you have to intentionally try to come up with some more complex structures to, I know you know, but perhaps you forgot.
173
You need to also focus on this part to increase your band score.
174
When it comes to pronunciation, it was clear, easy to follow.
175
You had the stress on the words and on the sentences.
176
But the thing you need to add is the intonation, the rise and fall, the rise and fall based on different circumstances.
177
You're talking about, for example,
178
something unpleasant, you fall, and then there's something that provokes happiness, you rise.
179
This natural rise and fall, or what we call intonation, is needed for you to show the examiner that you are natural English speaker.
180
Good luck, Emirates, on your next journey.

¿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.
