Hello and welcome to your IELTS picking exam.

I'm going to be your IELTS picking examiner.

My full name is Danakul Bahitepa.

Can you tell me your full name, please?

Hello, my name is Gulnaz and my last name is Achibay.

Okay, and what can I call you?

You can call me Gulnaz.

Okay, Gulnaz.

So, in this part one, I'm going to ask you a few questions related to you personally.

Can you tell me a little bit about your hometown?

Where are you from?

I am from a little city, Ahtau, which is located near the Caspian Sea.

I was born there and I have been living half of my life there.

But nowadays I'm living in Astana.

Okay.

What is your hometown well known for?

It is known for, as I said before, the Caspian Sea.

Most people from Kazakhstan and other countries come to see the sea in the summers.

They come there to spend their summer holidays,

to eat some fish, freshly made fish, and just to relax.

Okay, let's talk about your home.

Where do you live?

In an apartment or in a house?

I live in a block of apartments

and I prefer the apartment more than rather than house

because I believe that there are many works to do in a house like the gardening and other stuff.

I don't have much time to do and to deal with these kind of things.

That's why I prefer living in apartment, which I do know okay

and what do you like most about the place

that you live in now i like that i have a spacious room um

and the devices there like i have an oven there

which is new i have um microwave there

which i didn't have in my last apartment so i'm okay okay now let's talk about shopping do you like shopping?

I do like shopping but it depends on what I am shopping for.

If I'm buying some clothes or gadgets then I would be excited to do it

but if it's just regular grocery shopping then I wouldn't feel that excited about this one.

Okay and how often do you go shopping?

So if we are talking about grocery shopping I do it like once a week

but if talking about shopping for clothes or devices then I go for it just once a month or twice.

Okay and do you compare prices when you shop?

Of course I do because I'm keen on these financial literacy stuff

so if I'm buying things especially expensive ones then I need to compare prices first,

I need to compare the quality first and then I can make decision what to buy.

Okay, now let's talk about music.

Do you prefer sad or happy music?

Of course I always listen to happy music because I believe that happy music can make you feel indeed happy.

So when you're listening to sad music, especially especially when you are sad, then I think it would make the situation even worse.

That's why I always try to listen to music

which will raise my mood up and which will add some colors to my day.

Okay.

And what genre of music do you enjoy listening to?

I am not that picky when it comes to music genre.

I listen to any music that I like, that my soul likes and my soul prefers.

So I wouldn't say that I like a specific kind of music genre.

Okay.

Does happy music make you feel more excited? it yes it does as i said before

when i listen to happy music uh i myself start feeling happier okay this is the end of part one

now we are starting part two

and for this one i will give you a cue card

and you will have one minute to prepare for the topic feel free to take some notes

and then i will give you two minutes to talk about the topic.

You may start preparing now.

Okay, Gernaz, I need to stop you now and I'm going to give you two minutes to talk about the topic.

Don't worry if I stop you.

Okay, so you can start speaking now.

Okay, so a plan that I had to cancel or change was my trip to Dubai that I had arranged with my friends.

So we had been planning it for over a month and we were very excited about this trip.

So we're looking forward to going to Dubai.

We even planned the outfits that we're going to take there, the pictures, the poses and the places to visit.

We planned the whole itinerary.

But unfortunately, because of the political tensions in that region at that time,

we decided that it would be better if we postponed the trip.

But then we decided that we have a second option, which is choosing another destination.

And our trip to Dubai turned out to be a trip to Thailand.

So we went to Thailand instead, which was actually the best decision.

Because at that time, the type of vacation that we needed was a vacation near the beach where you can just relax,

eat some fruits, drink some tropical juice, and just have fun with your friends.

And also we like the weather there.

And so everything turned out to be for the best, to happen for the best.

So the new plan was this trip to Thailand and we could make it happen till the day where we originally planned.

And I actually felt a bit overwhelmed in the beginning because the political tensions were still there.

And I was afraid if my, I don't know, flight to Thailand will be cancelled as well.

Okay, so I need to stop you now.

Thank you so much.

And now we are moving on to part three.

And in this one, I will ask you some general questions related to the topic that you talked about before, which is planning.

Do old people often change plans?

Actually, I don't think so because old people tend to stick to their plans that they had made.

And they are mostly responsible for their plans

and they feel like they are responsible for their time as well as other people's time, which is really really good.

So I think that postponing or cancelling plans, it's not about old people.

Okay.

Do young people like to change plans?

Yes, especially people from my surroundings.

They mostly like changing plans, and there might be some interesting reasons for that.

For example, once I was planning to go to the cinema with my friends,

We bought the tickets, I was preparing to go there and then my friend texted me before leaving the house.

So I was about to leave the house and she texted

that she couldn't make it happen because she has some things to do

100

or her other friend called her to go out and I was like, okay, then what I'm going to do?

101

So I think young people are kind of irresponsible for other people's time.

102

Okay.

103

What are the common reasons when people need to change plans overall?

104

There are many reasons actually, starting from some health issues,

105

some, I don't know, they had still some work to do, family issues, I don't know.

106

I don't know, like issues, relationship issues and other stuff.

107

So I can't say that there are these categories of changing plans.

108

But generally, people change plans when they have something more exciting to do than the previous plan.

109

Okay.

110

And how does technology help people make plans?

111

Oh, actually it helps a lot, especially with the technology improvement recently.

112

The people can use technology when sharing common calendars, sharing the documents where...

113

a group of people can plan a trip or event at the same time just by sharing the documents.

114

So it saves time, it saves the energy.

115

So you can just sit at your home and just do the stuff by yourself.

116

Okay, thank you so much, Galnaz.

117

This is the end of your speaking test.

118

In just a moment, I will start giving you your feedback.

119

Okay, Ghanaz, now I will give you your personal feedback for the speaking test that we did.

120

So let's start with part one.

121

And by the way, I will relate back to the four assessment criteria in IELTS speaking, which are fluency and coherence,

122

lexical resource, grammatical range and accuracy, and pronunciation.

123

Your fluency and coherence were perfect in all three parts.

124

And what matters most in IELTS speaking is the natural speech

125

which you naturally have so that is solid band 9 for your fluency

126

and coherence very good job out there for your lexical resource there were some minor slips here

127

and there in part one what I noticed was the word the word choice mistake devices so when you talked about kitchen,

128

it's appliances, okay?

129

So instead of devices, you would say appliances.

130

In part two, I noticed another word choice slip with the word itinerary.

131

So you said itinerary.

132

So yeah, that's another for the word choice.

133

But I think these minor slips were not, you know, did not ruin the overall communication.

134

So I would still give you a nine for lexical resource.

135

The thing with grammatical range and accuracy though.

136

So since you prioritized your fluency, which was great, your grammar, you had some minor grammatical slips here and there.

137

In part one, when you were talking about your apartment, you said that I prefer the apartment than houses.

138

So you don't need the apartment.

139

So just because you are speaking in general, you should say apartments, right?

140

So generally apartments, not a specific one.

141

Make decision.

142

Make a decision.

143

Okay, so articles here and there, the same thing with part two, by the way, second option.

144

So since the word option is both singular and countable, you would say a second or the second option.

145

and in part three I noticed you said are more tend to

146

so people are more tend to with the word tend to you don't need are

147

so people tend to or people are usually and last

148

but not least for for grammatical range and accuracy

149

because of these slips I would give you eight and for your pronunciation in part one.

150

I noticed you said grocery shopping a little bit different.

151

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

152

Grocery shopping.

153

So it's like grocery shopping.

154

That's a weird one, but yeah.

155

Other than that, everything was perfect in part one.

156

Starting from part two and three, I noticed this pattern with the sound in in English.

157

So with the words visit, trip, decision, with, still, interesting,

158

sit, you have a Russian pattern with the Russian language.

159

So visit, what was it?

160

Visit, visit?

161

I don't know how exactly is it.

162

Yeah.

163

Trip.

164

TRIP.

165

TRIP.

166

Wheeze.

167

So something like that.

168

So there is a difference with the strong E sound and the sound that you need with these words.

169

So it's not with or still.

170

It's still with sit.

171

So with the word sit, by the way, you said seat.

172

So it becomes similar to the noun form of the word, right?

173

Seat.

174

So you need to be careful out there with this pattern with it.

175

Okay.

176

Outfits, by the way, not outfits. So outfits.

177

Okay.

178

Okay, with the word arranged, don't really remember exactly what was wrong with that.

179

I think you said something like arranged or something like that.

180

So arranged, okay.

181

And with the word were.

182

So I noticed that you said were and maybe that was just a slip.

183

I'm sure you know that rule.

184

Okay, but overall for your pronunciation, I would definitely give you no less than eight and that would give us an overall of 8 .5,

185

which is a really good job, a very strong performance.

186

Congratulations on that.

187

And do you agree with my feedback?

188

Yes, I do.

189

Okay, then.

190

Thank you so much for your time.

191

This is it.

192

Thank you.

193

This is it.

194

This is the first time we will be able to do this.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
