Hello and good afternoon, nice to meet you.

Good afternoon.

How are you today?

Good, but a little bit worried.

A little bit worried.

May I ask what is your name please?

My name is Nhi.

Fantastic.

Nhi, the test today will be around 12 to 15 minutes.

If you're happy, we can start?

Oh yes.

Fantastic.

Nhi, I want to start please by talking about your hometown.

Tell me, where is your hometown?

I was born and raised in the thriving metropolis, Ho Chi Minh City, which is located in the south of Vietnam.

As it's a state-of-the-art urban area, so lots of people live there.

There is a really busy, lively and fast-paced lifestyle.

Fantastic, thank you so much.

What do you like most about your hometown?

There are various things I love about it.

Firstly, there are many job opportunities to work in prestigious companies,

which is really important because people can earn a high salary and have a better quality of life.

Secondly, there is the world-class education system.

Therefore, students can develop and learn their skills in a high standard learning environment.

Wonderful, that's wonderful.

Thank you.

Has your hometown changed much over the years?

Absolutely.

The most common vehicle in my city was bike.

I mean, most people cycle to work and go to school school.

But now, as you can see, most people use motorbikes to move around the city.

Yes.

And moreover, it was much cleaner as there were more parks and gardens,

but now they replaced by factories and buildings because of the industrialization.

Fantastic.

Thank you.

And the final question for Hometown.

Is there anything you would like to improve about your hometown?

There are two things I would like to change about my hometown.

The first one is the air quality.

I mean, as you know, the majority of people use their personal vehicles,

especially motorbikes, which release films directly to the air, causing air pollution.

And the second one is noise pollution.

There is a lot of noise from factories as well as karaoke

which badly affects my life so I want the government to do something to do with these problems.

Wonderful, thank you very much.

Moving on now, let's talk about your daily routine.

Tell me Miss Ni, what time do you usually wake up?

I would say that it depends on the day.

In weekdays I usually wake up at 6am as I need to go to school early in the morning.

But at weekend I always wake up at 9am as I sleep more

because I want to recharge my batteries after a hard week.

Fantastic.

Thank you very much.

Do you prefer to have a fixed routine or a flexible one?

Oh, that's an interesting question.

I think that I'm keen on a flexible routine because of two main reasons.

The first one is I can't predict the future.

So I usually adjust my work to suit the situation

and the second one is it depends on my energy levels of that day.

I mean some days I feel really tired

so I do less work on that day and we'll do more in another day when I'm more energetic.

Wonderful, how fascinating, brilliant.

What part of the day do you enjoy most?

I think that I enjoy myself most in late evening, around 9 to 10pm when I finish all my homework

and I can use social media such as TikTok or chat with friends with a fresh and comfortable mind.

And at that time I feel really happy and relaxed.

That's wonderful, fantastic.

And finally, has your routine changed recently?

Changed?

Oh, absolutely yes.

I usually spend two or three hours a day to finish all my assignments.

and go to bed around 10 30 pm

but since this Monday it took me four five or even six hours a day

to finish all my tasks as well as revise the lessons and definitely I went to bed later

around 11 or at midnight to prepare for my final term exams two weeks later.

It made me a little, sometimes it made me a little bit exhausted, but I think it's worth it.

As I think that when I learn and revise more,

I will pass the exams with flying colors and my parents will be proud of me.

Fantastic, that's the main thing.

Okay, Ni, I really enjoyed that, listening about your daily routine in the hometown.

And now we will move on to part two, please please.

In part two I will give you a question and you have one minute to prepare, okay?

Fantastic.

The question for today please, Ni, is could you describe a place in your city that you enjoy visiting?

Thank you.

Okay Ni, thank you so much.

That is the end of the one minute.

When you're ready, could you please start now?

Yes, there are many fascinating places I could talk about however

if i had to pick one it would be the up-to-date shopping center gigamon

it's located on phan vang dom street in ho chi min city about 15 minutes from my house

there are many activities there are a variety of activities i

could do there firstly i usually tried some mouth-battering cuisine at high-quality restaurants.

And I highly recommend Saesaria, an Italian restaurant.

And the food there is really delicious.

And secondly, me and my friends always take photos together when we get there,

especially photo booth, a Korean style photography model, which is really trendy among young people.

I can remember vividly that last year, me and my best friend went to Gigamon to celebrate her birthday.

100

At that time, I gave her a ceramic cup as a gift and she really loved it.

101

And definitely, I really appreciate that moment.

102

And then we took some photos together to give some unforgettable memories.

103

The reasons why I love that place, not only because it is delicious food,

104

but also it has sentimental value to me.

105

As it witnessed all my moments and memories with my family and friends, who I love the most in the world.

106

In the future, I will definitely go visit that place again and again.

107

Thank you so much.

108

I really enjoyed that.

109

I've not been there, but I'll try to go there in the future.

110

Thank you so much Ni.

111

I'll just take that back.

112

Thank you.

113

Ni, I want to continue talking about cities and urban life now.

114

Could you tell me please, why do so many people prefer living in cities nowadays?

115

Generally speaking, as I've mentioned above,

116

there are many job opportunities to work in prestigious companies which give them a financial freedom.

117

For example, in Ho Chi Minh City, there are lots of big international companies like Samsung or LG,

118

which need a huge number of employees and offer them a high salary.

119

Moreover, people can find some services like hospitals or schools easily,

120

which is really necessary for their basic needs.

121

Thank you very much.

122

But what problems can large cities face?

123

In my opinion, I'm sure that most cities in the world face air pollution caused by factories gas.

124

I mean, for example, in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, there are lots of big cities that are built there.

125

They are always on the top cities which have the worst air quality in my country.

126

Moreover, because the urban areas have more modern facilities,

127

so lots of people from rural areas move there, and makes them overcrowded and noisy.

128

Thank you.

129

Yeah, very interesting.

130

That's great.

131

How can governments make big cities more comfortable to live in?

132

In my opinion, I think one thing the government could do is tackle the problems I mentioned above.

133

About air pollution, I think they could introduce some new laws to restrict and reduce the amount of exhaust gas.

134

Besides that, they could improve the infrastructure in rural areas and encourage residents to move there,

135

which leads to reducing the overcrowded situation.

136

Well done.

137

Thank you.

138

Brilliant.

139

Finally, let's talk about leisure activities now, Nhi.

140

Tell me, do people have enough free time today compared to in the past?

141

From my point of view, I think there is less time for them to relax than in the past,

142

as people now have a huge number of assignments they have to do in their work or their study.

143

For example, in Vietnam in the past, students used to have full three-month summer holidays,

144

days but now they only have around two

145

and a half months even they need to they need to participate in some extra classes like a math

146

or english class so however some people said

147

that in the in the past they needed to do part-time

148

job in every time to have their to have their family

149

so it's not the time when they enjoy or for them to relax themselves.

150

Interesting, very interesting isn't it?

151

How can technology influence the way that people spend their time?

152

In my opinion, people spend much more time on their phones during their free time,

153

which makes them a little bit isolated.

154

For example, in the past, children Children usually gather together to play,

155

to do other activities like playing handshake or playing football.

156

But now you hardly ever see anywhere.

157

However, some people make friends through the social media and then they share their

158

with the people that have the same hobbies with them and it makes them more relaxed and comfortable.

159

Thank you so much, well done.

160

And now please the final question for today, should parents encourage children to spend more time outdoors?

161

I think that it's really necessary as children can develop their practical skills like communication

162

or problem solving skills and avoid becoming passive people.

163

For instance, now children spend more than eight hours a day playing online games and don't talk to other people.

164

And it badly impacts on their future.

165

But, so, however, there's a high crime rate, such as kidnapping children for ransom.

166

I mean, criminals will kidnap their children and then require their parents for a huge sum of money.

167

And after they receive money, they will give back their children.

168

Yeah, so some parents really worried about that so sometimes they discourage their children to spend a lot of time outside.

169

Amazing, thank you very much.

170

And that brings us to the end of the test.

171

Thank you very much.

172

Well done, well done.

173

I'm so proud of you.

174

Fantastic, fantastic.

175

How did you find that?

176

Oh, fresh.

177

I thought you were absolutely phenomenal.

178

Your fluency was absolutely amazing.

179

Your pronunciation was beautiful.

180

I'm so proud of you.

181

I know that you were so nervous before we did that.

182

Yeah, but you did absolutely amazingly.

183

I'm so proud of you.

184

Well done.

185

Good job.

186

Good job.

187

One thing I really liked is your part one and your part two were phenomenal.

188

They were absolutely amazing.

189

Your part three, there were some difficult questions there, especially for someone of your age because you are still, you know, in school.

190

So it's difficult for you to think about big ideas, but I thought you did a wonderful job.

191

Wonderful.

192

Especially with the part two, when you relaxed into it and you told that wonderful story about your family.

193

Yeah.

194

Are you excited to book your test soon?

195

Oh, I'm so worried about my tests.

196

Well, we will practice a few new strategies for part three

197

so I love that you followed a really clear and logical formula.

198

Soon in our next lessons I will teach you some other ways to answer them as well okay

199

so I'm really looking forward to that but overall I thought you were phenomenal so thank you so much.

200

High five, come on Nick, well done.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
