Hello everyone and welcome to IELTS Time.
2
I'm Archer and today we're diving into a really common topic for part one of the speaking test, hobbies.
3
It might seem simple but it's a fantastic opportunity to show the examiner your natural speaking ability and range of vocabulary.
4
To get us started we're going to listen to a short
5
dialogue featuring Joseph answering some typical part one questions about his hobbies.
6
Pay attention to how he structures his answers,
7
the vocabulary he uses and how naturally he speaks.
8
After we listen in, we'll explore some general strategies and different ways you can approach this topic,
9
no matter what your interests are.
10
So let's tune in to Joseph now.
11
Do you have any hobbies?
12
Oh yeah, I definitely have a few hobbies that keep me busy.
13
For one, I'm really into photography.
14
I love capturing interesting scenes and trying to see things from a different angle.
15
I'm also learning to play the guitar,
16
which is challenging but really rewarding when you finally get a song right.
17
Plus, I'm a big fan of trying out new foods and exploring different restaurants and cafes.
18
So taking photos, strumming some chords,
19
and discovering tasty eats are my go-to things.
20
Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?
21
Totally.
22
When I was a kid,
23
I was really into collecting things.
24
For a while, it was all about trading cards.
25
You know, the ones with different characters and stats.
26
I also went through a phase where I collected colorful erasers in all sorts of weird shapes.
27
and like pretty much every kid,
28
I was obsessed with building things with Legos.
29
I could spend hours creating all sorts of imaginary worlds.
30
Those were simpler times for sure.
31
Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
32
That's a good question.
33
Thinking about it, I'd say my love for drawing has definitely stuck with me since I was a kid.
34
Back then, it was mostly just doodles of cartoons and animals,
35
and honestly, they probably weren't very good,
36
but I always found it really relaxing to just sit down with some paper and pencils and let my imagination wander.
37
Even now, though I don't do it as often, with school and everything.
38
I still enjoy sketching or even just doodling in my notebook when I have some free time.
39
It's like a little piece of my childhood that I've carried with me.
40
Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?
41
That's interesting to think about.
42
I wouldn't say we have exactly the same hobbies,
43
but there's definitely some overlap.
44
For example, my dad is really into hiking.
45
And while I don't go as often as he does,
46
I do enjoy a good hike in nature every now and then.
47
My younger sister is super creative and loves to paint.
48
And I've definitely picked up some of that interest,
49
although my artistic focus is more on photography these days.
50
So it's not identical, but we definitely share a general appreciation for being outdoors and doing creative things.
51
It's cool how those interests can kind of run in the family,
52
even if they manifest in slightly different ways.
53
Okay, welcome back.
54
Today we're going to stay focused on hobbies in part one,
55
and we're focusing on four common questions,
56
which you've already heard, and I want to show you how you can craft your responses with control.
57
I'm going to walk through each question.
58
For each question I'm going to remind you what the question is,
59
explain the strategy and show you example sentences you can use.
60
Ready?
61
Question one.
62
Do you have any hobbies?
63
This question looks easy but because it looks easy candidates often give answers that are too short.
64
For example some people just say, I like music.
65
That is not enough.
66
You need to show a little weight.
67
So here is the strategy.
68
Answer the question, give one example, and then say why.
69
For example, you could say, yes, I do.
70
I'm really into playing the piano.
71
I find it incredibly relaxing,
72
and it's a great way to express myself creatively.
73
Or if you have more than one hobby,
74
you could say, yes, I have a couple.
75
I enjoy hiking in the mountains near my home because it's so refreshing and I also like reading fiction.
76
Both activities really help me unwind,
77
so the key is simple.
78
Name your hobby and give one small reason.
79
Question two.
80
Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?
81
This is your chance to use past tense naturally.
82
Don't just name a hobby, give a small detail.
83
Create a visual moment.
84
For example, you could say definitely.
85
When I was younger, I was fascinated by building model airplanes.
86
I would spend hours carefully putting all the pieces together.
87
It really taught me patience.
88
Or you could say, yes,
89
I remember being really keen on collecting colourful stones.
90
I had a whole box of them,
91
and each one had a little story of where I found it.
92
So this question is not just about what hobby.
93
It's about showing a little memory from your childhood.
94
Question 3.
95
Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
96
Here the examiner wants to hear if there is a link between your past and your present.
97
If you do have a hobby that has continued, say so.
98
If you don't, that is totally fine.
99
Just be honest and say when your current hobby started.
100
For example, you could say, yes actually.
101
I've been drawing ever since I was a little kid.
102
When I was younger, it was mostly cartoon characters.
103
but now it's more realistic sketches.
104
Drawing has always been my creative outlet.
105
Or you could say, not really.
106
Most of my current hobbies,
107
like photography, are things I discovered in my teenage years.
108
That is perfectly acceptable.
109
Question four.
110
Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?
111
This question is about comparison.
112
Just say, are they similar or not similar?
113
Then add one small example.
114
For example, you could say,
115
my father is really into fishing.
116
I've tried it a few times but it's not really my thing.
117
However, my sister and I both enjoy watching movies together.
118
Or you could say, yes, actually.
119
My whole family loves hiking.
120
We try to go at least once a month.
121
It's our favourite way to spend time outdoors together.
122
Or you could say, not really.
123
My hobbies are quite different from my family.
124
I prefer solo activities like reading or gaming,
125
while they prefer team sports.
126
Both styles, similar or different, are valid answers.
127
That brings us to the end of the four common hobby questions.
128
And I want you to notice something very clearly now.
129
The structure is simple.
130
You answer the question directly,
131
and then you add one small extra piece of information to develop it.
132
That extra piece could be a reason,
133
or a little detail, or a short memory, or a comparison.
134
It doesn't have to be long.
135
It just needs to sound natural.
136
So here is your practice task.
137
Write your own answers to these four questions.
138
Keep each answer around three sentences,
139
and then say them out loud.
140
If you rehearse this topic two or three times before your test,
141
your answers on this topic will feel more automatic and natural when the examiner asks you about hobbies.
142
And remember, you can use this same structure for most other common part one topics as well.
143
All right, that's it for today's lesson.
144
Thanks so much for watching and practicing with me.
145
If you want to build the same level of control across the whole speaking test,
146
make sure you also check out our other speaking videos where we go into different topics and different parts of the exam.
147
Keep your answers clear and naturally developed.
148
And I'll see you in the next lesson.

- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: examiner /əɡˈzæmɪnɚ/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, creatively /kɹiˈeɪtɪvli/, imaginary /ɪˈmæd͡ʒɪˌn(ɛ)ɹi/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: unwind /ʌnˈwaɪnd/, chord /kɔɹd/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: examiner /əɡˈzæmɪnɚ/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, fascinate /ˈfæsɪneɪt/, manifest /ˈmæn.ɪ.fɛst/, overlap /ˌəʊvəˈlæp/
- /w/ — met ronde lippen: unwind /ʌnˈwaɪnd/, wander /ˈwɑndɚ/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als hobby, hike, vocabulary.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
