2
I'm going to show you how to avoid these mistakes and how to improve your answers in IELTS Speaking Part 1.
3
Ready?
4
Let's do it.
5
Hello, it's Keith from the Keith Speaking Academy, here to help you improve your answers in IELTS Speaking Part 1.
6
So in this video, I'm going to show you lots of typical answers that students give, and I want you to guess the mistake.
7
I will then explain the problem, show you how to fix it,
8
and give you lots of tips on how to improve your answers in IELTS Speaking Part 1.
9
Oh,
10
these mistakes and lots more questions and answers so that you can practice and give better answers in IELTS Speaking Part 1.
11
Let's begin.
12
- Okay, number one.
13
If you guess the problem, you can write in the comments one and then the problem.
14
Here we go.
15
Are you good?
16
at telling jokes.
17
Yes, there is a lot of research, saying that.
18
Telling jokes is good for our mental health.
19
Right, did you spot the problem or the mistake?
20
You see here, the student is not talking about themselves.
21
They're giving a generic answer.
22
The question wasn't, why is telling jokes good?
23
Is there any research?
24
It was, are you, you, good at telling jokes?
25
Part one is all about you.
26
You need to speak and talk about you.
27
your experience, your life.
28
A much better answer would be, not really.
29
I often forget important points in the joke.
30
Or worse still, I forget the punchline.
31
So don't give generic answers.
32
Talk about you.
33
Number two. Do you like singing?
34
Yes, I do.
35
It's great.
36
Ah, so the problem is the answer is too short.
37
In part one, it's true, you do want to give short answers.
38
but not that short, right?
39
Avoid one word or one phrase answers.
40
I would suggest you develop your answer a little bit.
41
maybe two to three sentences.
42
You can speak for about 20 seconds.
43
So, give a little bit more, but not too much.
44
A much better answer could be, yes, I enjoy singing in the shower,
45
but I would never sing in public.
46
I'm too shy for that.
47
Now, here's a useful tip.
48
In part one, you can very easily show off your knowledge of tenses.
49
So for questions that are, do you do something?
50
Do you cook?
51
Do you run?
52
Do you drive?
53
You can use this trick.
54
You can say, "Yes, I do it." I started doing it when I have done it for...
55
So many years.
56
Three tenses in one short phrase.
57
So for example, the singing question, do you like singing?
58
You could say, yes.
59
I sing a lot.
60
I learnt to sing at school.
61
So I have been singing for many years.
62
I love it.
63
Can you see that?
64
Simple trick, lovely answer.
65
You can improve your answer for that kind of do you do question, which is typical in part one.
66
Whilst I'm here, let me give you another tip.
67
In part one, you'll also get how often do you do that questions, right?
68
How often do you sing?
69
And most people say, well, I usually do it.
70
I often do it.
71
I never do it perfectly fine but you could improve your answer by using adverbial phrases like from time to time,
72
now and again, "now and then, once in a blue moon,
73
Just note, these adverbial phrases will come at the beginning of the phrase or at the end of the phrase.
74
not usually between the subject and the verb.
75
like I usually do it, Right?
76
I do it from time to time.
77
or from time to time, I do it.
78
So use these adverbial phrases to improve your answers.
79
Let's move on.
80
Okay, let's see if you can spot the mistake number three.
81
Did you learn about science at school.
82
Yes, I learned a lot.
83
Our teacher, is very interesting. Did you see it?
84
- Okay.
85
The problem is for this question: did you do something at school or when you were a child,
86
the examiner is seeing if you can use the past tense.
87
Can you talk in the past?
88
What often happens is students begin in the past, Good.
89
And then move into the present.
90
Uh -uh.
91
They forget.
92
Right?
93
Yes, I learnt a lot.
94
Our teacher is very interesting.
95
No, it's such an easy mistake to make.
96
And the thing is to stay focused.
97
This is about the past.
98
So use different ways of talking about the past.
99
but stay in the past.
100
Yes, we had science class at school.
101
I learnt a lot because we had a wonderful teacher who made everything very practical.
102
So two quick tips, again, two for the prize of one.
103
Tip number one is make sure you learn science.
104
Obviously the past tense of verbs, I walked, I learned, but be careful with the irregular verbs.
105
The most common verbs in English have irregular past tense.
106
I went, I took, I put, I ate.
107
Make sure you know these.
108
Tip number two is use different ways.
109
You can also say, I used to do that.
110
"but not anymore," or "I would do that if it was a habit." Right?
111
When I was young, I would paint a lot.
112
I loved art.
113
Okay, so use different ways of talking about the past, not only the simple past tense.
114
Okay, let's move on.
115
Thank you.
116
Okay, here comes the next mistake.
117
Get ready.
118
Have you ever seen old buildings?
119
in the city where you live.
120
Yes, old buildings are a prominent part of the landscape in my hometown with the development of technology,
121
they have grown like A spider's web.
122
Did you spot the mistake?
123
Well, I think clearly here the problem is the student has memorised the answer.
124
So he says, well, the old buildings are a prominent part of the landscape, of the cityscape.
125
That's nice language.
126
But then with the development of technology doesn't really fit.
127
And then the spider's web nonsense.
128
I mean, it's an interesting metaphor, but it's clear.
129
The student has memorized an answer and they're giving it.
130
That does not help you.
131
memorize your answers yes memorize lots of phrases and collocations and vocabulary but not the whole thing right um
132
I think there are some Probably the most famous one is the television tower in the city centre.
133
It's quite a popular tourist attraction too, actually.
134
Here's a tip, a final tip.
135
In IELTS Speaking Part 1, you will get some unusual questions.
136
Right?
137
You know, do you wear a watch?
138
Yes.
139
Why do you wear a watch?
140
to tell the time, duh.
141
But don't say that to the examiner, right?
142
Here, have you seen any old buildings in your city?
143
Well, I don't know, I mean, what a strange question.
144
you would do much better to give a natural answer to that.
145
Imagine if a friend asked you that question, you'd probably say, well, I don't know.
146
I've not really noticed.
147
I haven't paid too much attention.
148
That's a strange question.
149
that kind of answer will be a much better answer than a memorized script.
150
okay it's really important to answer naturally so if you get a strange question say something like That's an unusual question.
151
I haven't really thought about that.
152
Thank you.
153
I've not really paid too much attention to that.
154
Well...
155
There must be some old buildings in my city, I suppose.
156
"I guess" things like that give a natural answer even if it's short.
157
and you'll get a better score for your answer.
158
Much better than a memorised answer.
159
Memorised, what a great word.
160
So don't Memorise.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
