1
Take a look at this woman.
2
She's taking the CELPIP exam and on the exam there's a question where she has to talk about a personal experience.
3
Okay and she has one minute to answer the question.
4
What should she say?
5
Well in this lesson I'm going to tell you exactly what you should say for this question on the exam.
6
Now if you want more lessons on CELPIP just click on the subscribe button right down there.
7
Okay so here's the question.
8
Talk about a great time you had with a family member or friend.
9
Maybe you can talk about a party,
10
something you did together at school,
11
a time you traveled with a friend or anything else you can remember.
12
What happened and why was it memorable?
13
Okay, so we have lots of options here.
14
Now, I think this is probably the easiest question on the IELTS,
15
not the IELTS, sorry, on the CELPIP exam because you only have to tell a story for one minute.
16
Okay, so it should be pretty easy.
17
Okay, so you're going to tell a story about something that happened to you that was memorable.
18
Okay, so you're going to use past tense verbs.
19
Now this is very important.
20
Okay, you're going to say something like this.
21
Two years ago, my best friend and I went to Las Vegas on a vacation.
22
We ate great food, we drank,
23
we visited, we saw, we experienced.
24
Okay, look at all those past tense verbs.
25
I know lots of English learners who never use past tense verbs at all.
26
Never.
27
They never use past tense verbs.
28
Okay, so you need to use past tense verbs if you want to do well on this question.
29
When we're telling a story,
30
we're talking about the past and we use these past tense verbs.
31
Okay, so what should you talk about in your story?
32
Well, you should say who,
33
Who was in the story?
34
What was the context?
35
Okay, where was it?
36
When was it?
37
Okay, for example, you could say,
38
two years ago, I went to Las Vegas with my friend on a vacation.
39
Okay so in one sentence you answered all of these.
40
Okay so that's what you should do.
41
Your first sentence should answer all of these things.
42
Okay so your first sentence is going to be the big picture.
43
Who, what, where
44
when then you're going to zoom in on what happened what happened you're going to give the details okay
45
and you're going to to give the details in chronological order okay chronological means time
46
so the order of time first this happened, then this, then this.
47
For example, you could say,
48
on the first day, we did such and such.
49
Then on the second day,
50
on the third day, that way it'll be easy for the person who's listening to your speaking,
51
it'll be easy for them to follow your story.
52
And they'll probably give you a good mark.
53
Okay, so you're going to use words like then, after that, okay?
54
Now, what strategy are you going to have when you answer this question?
55
You have 30 seconds to think about something before you start speaking.
56
Okay, so are you going to tell a real story or are you going to make up a story?
57
What do you think is easier for you?
58
Well, I would say if a story immediately comes to mind,
59
then it would be easier to tell a real story.
60
Like, let's say you see the question and you think,
61
oh yeah, that time I was in Europe with my friend.
62
Okay, I'll talk about that.
63
Then it would probably be easier to tell a real story
64
because then you don't have to think about making something up, right?
65
But if you can't think of a real story,
66
don't waste time trying to think about some experience you had.
67
Just make something up, okay?
68
Because you only have 30 seconds to prepare.
69
So just make something up and then start taking notes what you're going to say.
70
Okay, so I'm going to give you an example of how I would answer this question.
71
Okay, remember, you only have one minute and you have 30 seconds to prepare.
72
So I see the question.
73
Okay, nothing is coming to my mind.
74
I can't think of a real story that happens.
75
So I need to make something up.
76
Okay, so I'm going to say I went on a motorbike trip in Thailand with my friend.
77
Okay, so I'm going to start taking notes.
78
On the first day, we just relaxed and we got some massages.
79
On the second day, we rented our motorbikes and we started our trip.
80
On the third day, we had a crazy food experience.
81
Okay, on the fourth day,
82
my friend's motorbike broke down.
83
Okay, 30 seconds is done.
84
Now I need to start speaking.
85
Okay, so I've got my stopwatch here.
86
I'm going to start it so you can hear exactly how I would answer this question.
87
Okay, ready?
88
Take a deep breath.
89
Okay, start.
90
Two years ago, my friend and I went on a motorbike trip in Thailand.
91
We started our trip in the city of Chiang Mai.
92
When we got there, we were really tired on the first day.
93
So we just relaxed and we went to get some Thai massages.
94
On the second day, we rented our motorbikes and we started our trip.
95
We drove from Chiang Mai up to the city of Chiang Rai in northern Thailand.
96
On the third day we had a really crazy experience.
97
We stopped at a restaurant for lunch
98
and my friend wanted to try some crazy Thai food
99
so he ordered fried spiders but one of the spiders wasn't dead it was still alive
100
and it was crawling around in the plate
101
so my friend actually ate a living spider it was crazy on the okay
102
so my time is up a minute I was going to say
103
on the fourth day my friend's motorbike broke down and
104
that sort of ruined our trip so we couldn't keep going our trip
105
so we decided to end our trip
106
and we just I don't know whatever I could say okay
107
but this is good
108
because I had enough to talk about now maybe it would have been a little bit better
109
if I had looked at the time and said some sort of conclusion.
110
Like, even though we had some frustrations with the motorbike breaking down,
111
it was still a great trip that I'll remember forever.
112
That would be a great ending.
113
Okay, but I ran out of time.
114
Okay, so, you know, I don't know.
115
I think it's better to keep speaking for the full time than to end early.
116
Like if you talk for 30 seconds and then you say,
117
yeah, that was something I'll remember.
118
That was a good trip.
119
I had a good time with my family.
120
And then you're done and you've got 30 seconds left.
121
You're not going to get a good mark.
122
I think you're going to get a better mark if you talk from beginning to end.
123
even if you can't get a good conclusion in, like I did.
124
Okay, so that's how I would answer it.
125
But I want to know about you.
126
Which personal experience would you talk about if you had to answer this question?
127
What would your strategy be?
128
What would you write?
129
What would you take notes of in the 30 seconds?
130
Okay, let me know down there in the comments and I'll see you over in the next episode of Mad English TV.
131
Take care.
132
Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
