1
Hi, yes, it's nice to see you again too.
2
So listen, today we're going to be looking at how to introduce yourself in the IELTS Speaking Part 1,
3
including how to give your name and how to talk about your home or your hometown, work or studies.
4
And of course, we'll be looking at lots of language
5
and some tips and tricks to make sure this is a success for you.
6
Let's go.
7
First of all, please do remember to subscribe to this YouTube channel, IELTS Speaking Success and do turn on the notifications
8
and then that's going to make sure you don't miss out on any of the exciting videos coming your way soon.
9
So my name is Keith.
10
I run the IELTS Speaking Success website and YouTube channel and Facebook page.
11
Very nice to meet you.
12
And if I know you, good to see you again.
13
So listen, let's begin with part one.
14
What happens exactly in IELTS Speaking part one?
15
Well, you arrive at the test centre, of course.
16
You go in, you register.
17
Normally, and some test centres and countries are a little bit different, but normally you are asked to leave your belongings, your mobile phone in a special place.
18
And then you're taken to a waiting area and you would sit outside the exam room.
19
You wait there and then the examiner will come and open the door and invite you in.
20
They'll say hello, of course.
21
Just say hello, smile.
22
And normally, before you go in, they will start recording the test and they use a little mp3 player.
23
So don't be surprised.
24
Your whole test is recorded.
25
You're invited to sit down and then the test begins.
26
Of course, you need your ID or the passport
27
and the examiner will start to ask you questions and we're going to look at that.
28
Do remember, the examiner is the one who asks you questions.
29
You're not asking them questions.
30
It's not a conversation.
31
It is an interview, right?
32
And also, the examiner sometimes has a pen and makes notes.
33
Sometimes, right?
34
It has nothing to do with you.
35
Sometimes, because they have a clock and they write down the timing so that they follow the timing.
36
So they may write an 8 and a 12.
37
And of course, sometimes candidates look over.
38
Ooh, 8!
39
It's not your score.
40
It's nothing to do with you, right?
41
If you look over, you might see, oh, chicken.
42
Yeah, because maybe the examiner's just written down what they want for dinner.
43
It could be anything.
44
The important thing is don't pay attention.
45
Focus.
46
Okay, so let's look at a few tips and tricks at the start of the test.
47
Number one, get there early.
48
Don't be late because that's just going to give you stress on top of the stress you may already have, right?
49
So get there a little bit early.
50
If you can, on your phone, have something to listen to in English to get you in the mood
51
and to give you an English environment before the test, right?
52
So you're just kind of psyched up and ready for the test.
53
Then when you're in the testing centre, if you can, on your seat or go to the toilet, But get mentally prepared, right?
54
Just take a few moments to think about what's about to happen, okay?
55
And so the few minutes before the exam, one of the biggest challenges is that most candidates get nervous
56
and it starts to go into a cycle of being nervous and negative.
57
So you need to break that.
58
So when you're nervous, just say, that's fine.
59
I'm nervous.
60
That's okay and just let the nerves be.
61
See what happens.
62
It's actually good to have a few butterflies in the stomach before the test and then get focused and be positive.
63
Think my English is good.
64
That's the level I have.
65
I love my English.
66
I'm going to do my best and we will see what happens and just stay there.
67
Stay in that positive mind for a few seconds or minutes before the test.
68
And then just before you nip into the testing room,
69
smile and go in when the examiner invites you in.
70
Okay, just getting mentally prepared really, really helps.
71
Okay.
72
And then after you've sat down, the examiner checks your ID, your passport or your national identity card.
73
And then we'll say, okay, what's your name?
74
And just say your name.
75
And then they will probably say, and what can I call you?
76
Okay.
77
Keep it simple.
78
You can call me Tom.
79
You can call me Keith.
80
Okay.
81
So what's your name?
82
Keith Michael O 'Hare.
83
And what can I call you?
84
Just call me Keith.
85
Just call me Keith.
86
Keep it really simple.
87
Okay.
88
And then next, the examiner is going to move on to ask you a couple of questions on one topic,
89
either your home, your hometown, work or studies.
90
And after that, you'll have two more part one topics.
91
So let's look at what they might ask you.
92
First of all, if they talk or ask you about your hometown.
93
In the very first question about hometown or home or work, it is true that this is really a warm -up, right?
94
It is time for you to warm up
95
and it's time for the examiner to get used to your voice and to you.
96
So they don't really evaluate it.
97
And it is very short.
98
So you don't want to worry too much about fancy vocabulary and showing off, right?
99
My advice, keep it short and simple, right?
100
Keep it short and sweet.
101
For each question, just give two to three sentences.
102
Very, very brief.
103
Now, it is a warm -up, but first impressions count.
104
And so, if in your first two sentences, you're making grammar mistakes, right?
105
It's like having tomato sauce on your shirt.
106
It's like, oh, hello.
107
Oh, right.
108
The first impression straightaway is, what a mess, right?
109
So your first few sentences, if possible, keep them so short and simple that they're accurate and there are no mistakes.
110
If you try to make them complex, the chances are you may make more mistakes and you'll have pasta sauce on your shirt.
111
So keep it simple, short and sweet, two to three sentences.
112
I don't think the introduction is the time to show off.
113
Maybe later, when you're warming up, especially in part two and part three, you want to be showing off your vocabulary and your language, right?
114
But think of it like this.
115
Imagine you went to a party, right, and you met somebody and straight away they say, Hi, yeah, I'm Michael.
116
Yes, I live in London, one of the great cosmopolitan metropolises of Britain and it's a beautiful place.
117
I work for Google, one of the greatest multinational companies in the world.
118
I've got a PhD in astrophysics.
119
You're going to be like, uh, yeah, um, sorry, John,
120
you'd be shooting off to the bar like an arrow.
121
I mean, that is not the way to make a good first impression, right?
122
You want to keep it simple and friendly, right?
123
Hi, my name's Keith.
124
Yes, I'm from Manchester.
125
I work in Google.
126
That's it.
127
Maybe later when you've got to know each other, you can tell a bit more, but keep it simple, right?
128
Okay.
129
So no tomato sauce, course, no PhD.
130
Let's move on.
131
So now the examiner begins the first question.
132
Let's talk about your hometown.
133
Tell me about the town where you live.
134
So the first thing to notice is what I call signposts.
135
So the examiner normally gives you a little signpost to say, this is what I'm going to talk about, right?
136
Let's talk about your hometown.
137
Listen out for the signpost.
138
Okay.
139
Or let's talk about your home.
140
Ah, home.
141
Got it.
142
Now, this question sometimes confuses people because if you listen carefully, they say, let's talk about your hometown.
143
Tell me about the town where you live.
144
And some people go, do you want to know about my hometown
145
or the town where I live? because they're not the same.
146
What do I do?
147
Do I talk about Manchester or Santander where I'm living?
148
And panic sets in.
149
So remember, the examiner doesn't actually care about your hometown.
150
You can talk about any town.
151
But just talk about one, right?
152
Either your hometown or where you live.
153
If it's not the same place, it doesn't matter.
154
So don't sweat the small stuff.
155
Just go straight in.
156
Talk about your hometown, right?
157
So you could say something like, I live in Santander.
158
I've been living there for two years, actually.
159
And yeah, it's a coastal city with some nice beaches.
160
that's it right now this is actually a bit of a trick
161
but I say I live in blah blah blah I've been
162
living there for two years for five years I've been living
163
there is really nice complex grammar right now I said don't show off
164
but if you know this tense and you can say it naturally I've been living there.
165
Remember the I have, I've.
166
I've been living there for two years.
167
Great.
168
That's nice.
169
Still simple, right?
170
Right.
171
It's a coastal city and it has some beaches.
172
Okay.
173
It's a big city with lots of industry.
174
It's a small village with lots of parks.
175
Something like that.
176
Nice and simple.
177
And then the next question will come in
178
and there is a variety of questions
179
but let's take one for example what's the most interesting part of
180
that city here again keep it simple just talk about one interesting part
181
or maybe two and say why it's interesting and
182
if you want a simple template to begin the most interesting part for me is probably the beaches.
183
The most interesting part for me is probably the shops.
184
It's a nice simple template if you want, especially at the beginning of the test.
185
If you want to have a simple template to use, that could be it, right?
186
You might say, the most interesting part for me is probably the beaches.
187
There are quite a few beaches that attract quite a lot of tourists
188
and I like to go down there sometimes to have a swim
189
or a paddle or just to have a stroll on the sand.
190
Okay now another tip and a trick.
191
when students are preparing for IELTS speaking I know
192
that they often write down their answer what they want to say
193
and so this is okay but there's a problem right
194
because most of the time
195
when you write down what you think is a good answer you're writing written English not spoken English.
196
And so it might look something like this.
197
There are several beaches that attract many tourists.
198
I like to go to these beaches most weekends for a swim or a paddle.
199
Sometimes I just go for a stroll on the sand.
200
Okay.
201
Now also that's okay but the problem as well is
202
that a lot of students then try to make it more complicated
203
and they start crafting and creating a better answer and it starts to become something like this.
204
There are several beautiful beaches that attract a myriad of tourists.
205
I like to go to these scenic spots most weekends for a swim or a paddle.
206
Sometimes I just go for a stroll on the soft golden sand and you start to sound like a poet.
207
It becomes so written that it's not natural and that bad impression, that pasta on your shirt has just got worse
208
because it doesn't sound natural and it sounds like you've memorised a written answer.
209
So how do you avoid this?
210
Very simply, when you see the question you want to practice answering, speak out your answer, right?
211
Speak out a natural answer, record it, and then if you want, write down what you've recorded.
212
Make small changes, but keep it spoken, right?
213
And also a good tip is if you do write out what you've said, don't write sentences.
214
Write it in chunks.
215
So it looks like this.
216
Can you see there are different phrases one after the other?
217
There are several beaches that attract a lot of tourists and I like to go to one of them.
218
You're kind of chunking the clauses usually.
219
It makes it easier and more natural to speak like this.
220
So that's a great tip.
221
If you're going to write your answer, write it like that.
222
So can you see it's much more natural?
223
It's not overcomplicated.
224
And that is really the best way to prepare.
225
Don't create and write down your answer.
226
Speak it out, record it.
227
And then if you want, write out what you've said.
228
Keep it natural, keep it spoken.
229
That sounds like a great slogan, right?
230
Keep it natural, keep it spoken.
231
But it's true.
232
Let's move on.
233
And then the next question that sometimes comes up is quite difficult, right?
234
Is what kind of jobs do people do there?
235
What a difficult question.
236
What kind of jobs do people do there?
237
Well, there's everything.
238
There's postmen, there's bankers, there's butchers, there's bakers, there's businessmen.
239
I don't know, Mr. Examiner, right?
240
But what the examiner's looking at here is maybe in your town, there's a special industry that is particularly strong.
241
So you can talk about it.
242
If not, that's fine.
243
Right.
244
You just give a more general answer.
245
So you may say something like, well, a variety of jobs, I think.
246
There are a lot of fishermen, actually, because fishing is a major source of income for that city.
247
A number of people also work in the tourism sector.
248
Short and simple.
249
Right, so we've looked at some of the questions for hometown.
250
Let's look now at home, sometimes accommodation.
251
So here the signpost might be, let's talk about your home.
252
Let's talk about your accommodation.
253
that's the signpost right and then the question do you live in a house or a flat
254
or sometimes the question is what kind of accommodation do you live in
255
examiners nod their head a lot right to help you understand so here you may say something like
256
well i live in a in a flat in a high
257
-rise building it's in the suburbs of the city it's not too big not too small
258
but it's nice and cozy
259
so here you'll probably want to learn some of the language
260
around houses detached house a townhouse a bungalow flat an apartment
261
high -rise building you may talk about the location it's in the suburbs it's in the city center
262
or it's downtown or it's slap bang right in the city centre it's in the outskirts okay
263
and then talking about the size you know it's huge it's small you couldn't swing a cat in there
264
if it's so small not too big not too small most houses will be
265
that normal size right nothing special it's nothing to write home about it's a nice expression
266
if something's not special it's nothing to write home about not too big not too small
267
but it is nice and cozy nice binomial right short
268
and sweet nice and cozy fish and chips these are very common two words with
269
and or an together it's nice and cosy.
270
Now, talking about your home, another common question is who do you live with?
271
Well, it's none of your business, actually.
272
It's a bit of a personal question, right?
273
I mean, maybe you're living in secret with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Who knows?
274
But remember, the examiner doesn't really care who you live with, right?
275
It's just about language.
276
So maybe you live with your close family your spouse
277
and children maybe with your parents
278
or maybe you live on your own on your own
279
or possibly you're sharing a house with classmates schoolmates university mates
280
who knows now in the same way do you remember we
281
talked about your job right i work in the Santander Bank and I've been working there for five years.
282
We can do the same here if you feel comfortable with it.
283
So maybe you say, I live with my wife.
284
We've been together for five years and with my daughter who is two.
285
For example, I live with my parents.
286
I've always lived with them actually.
287
Or I live on my own.
288
I've been living on my own since I left home. Or, I share a house actually with some mates from university
289
and we've been living together and sharing the house for about a year and a half now.
290
Okay.
291
And if you've got a pet, talk about your pet and we have a dog and a cat who lives with us too.
292
Great.
293
Now, the next common question about homes is about often decoration.
294
So they may ask, how is your home decorated?
295
Or what is your favourite room?
296
A very quick trick.
297
If it helps you, you can repeat the question, right?
298
How is my home decorated let me see well my home
299
is decorated with yep what's my favorite room mmm just a moment well my favorite room is my bedroom
300
that is absolutely fine
301
if it helps you gain time to think do it this
302
is not like IELTS writing where you have to paraphrase and use synonyms it's not like that you can just be natural.
303
We often repeat the question, right, in your natural language, in your mother tongue.
304
So you can do the same here.
305
Talking about decoration, we can talk about furniture, photos and paintings, adornments, things like that, right?
306
So you may say, well, for example, you can talk about plants.
307
Yep.
308
Maybe you've got, oh, hello.
309
Oh, hello.
310
This way.
311
Maybe you've got a bookshelf.
312
Maybe you've got some kind of adornment, like my little guitar, right?
313
All of that.
314
I'll tell you what, that plant, it's looking a bit the worse for wear, right?
315
Hang on.
316
That should cheer it up.
317
Apparently, they say if you talk to plants, they grow.
318
Oi, come on, grow.
319
Maybe not like that.
320
So you can talk about decoration, maybe something like this.
321
Well, my favourite room, I would say is my bedroom.
322
And in my bedroom, I've got a simple table and chair from Ikea, actually.
323
And I've got two paintings hanging on the wall.
324
One is a portrait and one is a landscape yeah nice simple
325
but some good language let's move on finally another question you
326
are often asked about your home is do you like living there
327
you want to say briefly yes or no and remember to say why
328
so maybe something like yes i do I really like it actually because it's cosy.
329
It's spacious and cosy.
330
There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby and it's well connected.
331
Let's move on to talk about what you do.
332
So you'll hear the following.
333
Let's talk about what you do.
334
Do you work or are you a student?
335
Again, keep it short and sweet.
336
Just say which one you do, maybe what your job is and where you do it, right?
337
Do you work or are you a student?
338
I'm a student, actually, and I'm studying English at the University of Da Da Da.
339
I work.
340
Actually, I work in a bank and I'm a bank teller.
341
Or I work in a school.
342
I'm a teacher.
343
I'm an English teacher.
344
Then very often they ask, what do you do every day?
345
Now, it can be tempting to give a list of lots of things.
346
Well, I wake up, I prepare my classes, I give the classes, I have to make exams, I mark the exams.
347
No, don't give a list.
348
It's a bit better, maybe just say two, maybe three things, but just a little bit of detail, right?
349
Just a little bit.
350
It just sounds more natural rather than a shopping list, right?
351
So what do you do every day?
352
Well I teach, right?
353
I give classes online so I have to prepare my classes and I usually do a bit of research for that.
354
On top of that I also have to write reports for my students right just two
355
or three things with small details next question
356
what would you like to change about your job now here
357
it's not would you like to change your job it's what
358
would you like to change about your job what are the activities in your job you don't like
359
and you would change if you could right so here you may say something like make?
360
Well, I'm not a big fan of mm -mm -mm.
361
If I could, I would change that.
362
It would be great to mm -mm -mm.
363
Something like that.
364
So for example, in my case, well, I'm not a big fan of writing reports, actually.
365
So if I could, I would change that.
366
It would be good to outsource that to somebody else actually.
367
But all in all, you know, I enjoy my job.
368
All in all, all in all just means overall, by and large, right?
369
So it's a nice way just to summarise what you're saying here, right?
370
I would change this, but overall, all in all, I enjoy my job.
371
Next, remember there are many different kinds of questions you may get
372
but one of them could be can you describe your work environment your work environment is not
373
so much the cars in the street outside your building it's
374
more about the room the furniture the facilities the people
375
and the atmosphere you have at work right
376
so you could describe your working place i work in an
377
office it's an open plan office i work from home actually
378
i do there are about 20 of us in the office
379
there are 20 other people there it's just me on my
380
own the facilities are pretty good you could say talking about the facilities.
381
We have air conditioning.
382
We've got a canteen.
383
There's a gym or a creche where we can leave the children.
384
Furniture, you may mention.
385
We've got simple tables, comfy seats, ergonomic chairs, maybe, if you're lucky.
386
And the atmosphere, well, it's about how you get on with people, right?
387
Is it a tense atmosphere where everybody's on edge Or is it relaxed?
388
Is it a relaxed atmosphere where everybody's quite chilled out and laid back?
389
There's a good atmosphere where I work.
390
Everybody gets on pretty well together.
391
Brilliant.
392
Let's move on now.
393
Look at studying.
394
So if you don't work, probably you study.
395
Some people I know work and study at the same time
396
and they're not sure which one to choose it doesn't really matter, right?
397
Remember again, the examiner doesn't care.
398
So long as you are able to talk about stuff, that's what matters.
399
So if you're a student and you say, I study, they may ask you, well, what do you study?
400
If you've already said what you study, the examiner will probably skip that question and go to the next one. Or not.
401
Sometimes they just repeat the question to test you right
402
so you've said i study i study biology in oxford university
403
and then the examiner says and what do you study and you go biology i just told you
404
are you paying attention right no of course you don't say that what the examiner's testing is as in a normal conversation.
405
Can you say, well, as I mentioned before, I'm studying biology and it's really interesting.
406
So you're repeating but paraphrasing a little bit in a polite, acceptable way.
407
As I just mentioned, I'm studying biology.
408
Yep.
409
Don't insult your examiner.
410
It's not a good idea right and then they may skip
411
or move on often they ask you not always
412
but often why did you choose that subject now here maybe you chose it
413
so say why maybe your parents chose it you can explain
414
that okay you may want to say something like to tell you the truth truth.
415
My parents chose it for me.
416
To be honest, my parents chose it for me.
417
Or, well, I chose it because I've always been interested in biology.
418
I've always enjoyed biology.
419
I've always wanted to be a scientist.
420
Nice use of the present perfect.
421
I've always wanted to be a scientist or biologist.
422
I was inspired by blah blah blah the famous biologist and ever since then I've always wanted to be a biologist.
423
Something like that you may want to add I think it will be really useful for my future career.
424
Again keep it simple but explain why.
425
Make sure you give a bit of detail on your reason.
426
Moving on another common question. Do you like it?
427
Sometimes you do, right?
428
Sometimes you regret studying or choosing that subject and you wish you had done something else.
429
I can see an opportunity, right?
430
Do you like it?
431
Not really.
432
I've realised now that it's not my cup of tea.
433
I wish I had chosen a different subject, actually.
434
Lovely, right?
435
I have realised it's not my cup of tea.
436
I wish I had chosen, right?
437
Something that is not true, but you wish it were.
438
I wish I had chosen another subject.
439
Brilliant. Or, absolutely.
440
I love it.
441
I particularly like where we do experiments on the animals.
442
Maybe, I don't know.
443
Because we get to learn about the anatomy of the different animals.
444
So you can explain the part that you like and why.
445
Or you explain the part that you don't like and why.
446
I do like studying biology actually yes very much
447
but I'm not really fond of the experiments we do on animals
448
because I get a bit squeezy
449
and I'd rather not experiment on animals don't be a biologist my friend anyway
450
so we can talk about yes the things you like or the things you don't like keep it fairly short and sweet.
451
You know it's two to three sentences for each question.
452
Great.
453
There you have it.
454
So we've talked about a hometown, home, study or work.
455
First impressions are important.
456
You don't want spaghetti on your shirt and you don't want to be the PhD show -off at the party.
457
You want to make a good first impression.
458
That's it.
459
Just to remind you, there are a lot more videos on YouTube to help you in different parts of the test.
460
But if you want a really deep experience to learn the language and techniques at a much deeper level, I do have an online course.
461
It's on Udemy.
462

463

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.
