Honestly, with my family because I think we actually are a close-knit family

And what's your favorite TV program or show?

It is actually called NABAD and I really love that

because of actually it's a host that his name is Adelferdo Sipur and I really like this man.
35
And do you think you will watch more TV or fewer TV programs or shows in the future?
36
In the future, I think I will watch it more, you know, because right now I'm really trying for my life
37
and I really spend my time on studying and a lot of things.
38
So I think in the future, maybe I am not busy as I am right now.
39
I would actually.
40
All right.
41
Now let's move on to talk about age.
42
Are you happy to be the age you are now?
43
I think yes, I am happy, but you know, I'm stressed because I'm getting older and I think it is so scary for me.
44
And, you know, I think maybe I will lose my opportunities.
45
And when you were a child, did you think a lot about your future?
46
Yes, I did.
47
You know, I used to think a lot about my future
48

50
And do you think you have changed as you have got older?
51
Sorry, can you repeat your question?
52
Sure.
53
Do you think you have changed as you have got older?
54
I think yes.
55
I actually, I changed a lot, especially I was a kind of introverted person.
56
And right now I am so extroverted and I think it could be a big change for me.
57
Thank you.
58
That's the end for part one.
59
Now let's move on to part two.
60
In part two, I will give you a card with a topic
61
and you will have to talk about the topic for up to two minutes.
62
You have one minute to think about what you're going to say.
63
You can make some notes to help if you wish.
64
Do you understand?
65
Yeah.
66
Okay.
67
Well, the topic would be describe a time when you started using a new technological advice, e.g. a new computer or phone.
68
That's your cue card.
69
Thank you so much.
70
That's a piece of paper for taking notes and a pen.
71
We're reading it pretty much.
72
Until one minute time for taking notes and thinking starts right now.
73
Thank you.
74
All right, your one minute time is over and now we can speak for up to two minutes.
75
Okay, so if I want to start my speech,
76
I can say that one of the actually devices that I was really keen on was my actually phone,
77
my smartphones, because as I can remember, when I was a student at high school,
78
actually I was familiar with these devices and they were actually kind of new devices and I really wanted to have one.
79
And because I actually really wanted to improve my life quality
80
and I actually was thinking that it actually could be
81
so effective and it could have a lot of effect on my life
82
and i can actually you know uh do a lot of faith with
83
that and so uh first of all
84
if i want to talk about my experience about using these
85
actually mobile phones uh first of all i should say
86
that uh it was so easy for me like a piece of a cake
87
and i really you know uh because uh i really loved
88
that devices and uh um you know i was
89
so interested about them
90
and uh in a actually one in a short time i actually had known that how can i use them
91
and so uh i can remember that
92
when i really wanted these devices uh all the time i was saying
93
that i wish i would actually in a place
94
that my friends for example uh are in that and uh you know uh it It was so,
95
it was so dreamy for me.
96
I really wanted to do that, to have them of course.
97
Perfect.
98
Thank you so much.
99
Now let's move on to the third part.
100
And would you please hand me back the piece of paper, the cue card and the pen?
101
Here you are.
102
In part two, you talked about the time when you started using a new technological device.
103
Now, in this part, I want to ask you some questions related to this topic.
104
First, let's consider technology and education.
105
What is the best age for children to start computer lessons?
106
Can you, sorry, can you explain it?
107
Can you, of course.
108
What is the best age for children to start computer lessons?
109
I think, you know, when the children can understand what they can do for their life,
110
actually, and what is wrong and what is, you know, the best decision, they can actually keep learning and,
111
you know, start to studying and just this.
112
And do you think that schools should use more technology to help children learn?
113
Definitely yes, because, you know, as far as I think,
114
technology can be so effective in the actually learning process.
115
And I think it could be so, you know, it could boost actually the process of learning.
116
And do you agree or disagree that computers will replace teachers one day?
117
I agree, actually, because, you know, nowadays we can see, for example,
118
some bots like AI that they can do a lot of things that, you know, it is more than a kind of,
119
you know, it is more than individual powers, of course and I think it could be so challenging,
120
but I think, yeah.
121
Now let's talk about technology and society.
122
How much has technology improved the way we communicate with each other?
123
A lot.
124
Of course, you know, it is different.
125
as my point of actually as I think it made people to have more connection with actually other people
126
and make new friendships and of course do a lot of things
127
that we can't do it without them but I think
128
that you know some close actually close-knit families for example destroyed by this technology.
129
And, you know, for example, like some applications that you can have video calls or something like that,
130
I think it could be, it couldn't be actually.
131
Do you agree that there are still many major technological innovations to be made?
132
Yes, definitely.
133
because actually, you know, day by day, we can see the world actually getting better.
134
And, you know, so I think because of that, we can see a lot of,
135
you know, new technologies and new approaches in the future. And yeah.
136
And could you suggest some reasons why some people are deciding to reduce their use of technology?
137
Sorry, can you repeat that again?
138
Yes, could you suggest some reasons why some people are deciding to reduce their use of technology?
139
You know, it depends on each individual perspective, actually point of view, I wanted to say that.
140
I think the people that decide to, actually want to decide to reduce using technology,
141
you know, So maybe the thought is about we don't have any close relationship nowadays
142
and it will make people so lazy and so because of that maybe they don't want to do that.
143
Thank you so much.
144
This is the end of the speaking test.
145
Do you want to know what band score you'll get in the IELTS speaking test?
146
Perhaps you want to improve your performance and prepare yourself for the real test.
147
then why not book an online mock test with us that will last for 25 minutes, 12 minutes of the test itself and 13 minutes of comprehensive feedback.
148
Plus, we'll give you useful tips on how to make your performance better.
149
So, we know how to help you.
150
Join us.
151
Okay, that was a lot of talking.
152
Do you have any questions?
153
No, thank you very much.
154
I really appreciate that you give me this feedback because I know this will help me.
155
This is exactly what I need.
156
Although my job is hard, I enjoy doing this.
157
I'm going to share with the questions.
158
This is the last time I'm going to talk about the exam day.
159
We should make sure...
160
Okay, this is the last time I'm going to talk about...
161
How to do you know for our generation.
162
...tongue out of the movie and talking about what's in a movie and film.
163
We're going to spend a lot of time on film.
164
All right, so time for the feedback.
165
Well, as you know, there are four criteria for evaluating your performance,
166
fluency, lexical resource, or vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation.
167
When it comes to fluency, you are easy to follow.
168
That's what matters.
169
You were easily understandable, and then you didn't repeat yourself.
170
You had a couple of self-repetition and self-correction, but that's okay.
171
It looks like you were repeating yourself naturally like everybody, even people with other, even if their native language is English,
172
they do repeat themselves.
173
So that was the good part of it with regards to the fluency and coherence and you were coherent, easily understandable.
174
But you need to slow down a little bit.
175
You have to give yourself that time to find the ideas and find the words.
176
You don't need to rush because rushing makes you nervous.
177
And getting nervous is a killer in IELTS exams, speaking exams.
178
So So you need to slow down, keep pace when you speak, try to think wisely before choosing any word.
179
And in order to do that, you need to diversify your connectives, the fillers and boosters and connectives.
180
You need to pay close attention to what connectives to use.
181
You know we have fillers,
182
which are the phrases used by the speaker to try to find the right word okay like you say like
183
or you know or I mean you're buying yourself time to find a better word right
184
so you have to pay attention to the fillers
185
and the boosters to find the next ideas like you need
186
to use some boosters like for example you say a sentence
187
and you're not sure what the next sentence would be So you would say,
188
with that being said, then blah, blah, blah.
189
You find yourself and other ideas to move on and keep the flow of speech, maintain the flow of speech.
190
So you need to also
191
use a wide range of boosters to try to figure out what to speak about and maintain the flow of speech.
192
But let me tell you something.
193
You need to use those fillers and boosters judiciously, carefully.
194
An overdose of fillers and boosters is not okay because
195
that would also show that you're not able to be coherent or be to the point.
196
So overdose or excessive use of fillers and boosters is dangerous, but try to use them carefully.
197
So that is for fluency and coherence.
198
Let's move on to lexical resource, which is vocabulary.
199
You did a great job finding some very good words like, yeah, I'm keen on, that's perfect.
200
That's professional.
201
You also said use some idiomatic language, which is very okay.
202
You are really great in finding some colloquial words and an idiomatic language, like you said, piece of cake.
203
You use day by day is really important to try to diversify and expand the vocabulary used naturally,
204
used idioms by native speakers.
205
That is okay, but pay attention to the overuse of some words, like you overused the word actually,
206
and that is not okay.
207
So try to avoid overusing some specific words, And you also, one good point is that you said definitely yes.
208
When you were really sure what the answer would be, definitely yes, absolutely yes.
209
All those phrases are really amazing and they really caught my attention.
210
With regards to grammar, you had some little issues.
211
You have to avoid them.
212
Let me begin by your bright side.
213
You used this phrase as far as, which is okay.
214
That shows that you are able to use some complex structures,
215
but your usage of complex structures were not fully okay because sometimes you make some mistakes.
216
When you want to expand the answer or expound on the answer, elaborate on the answer, you would face some problems.
217
You want to use that complex structure, but then you face some shortcomings but as far as you were speaking
218
and using some simple structures you were okay
219
but the issues would be um you used will
220
but instead of mentioning the simple form of the verb you use the past
221
form of the verb so that is an issue
222
and then you also said a lot of thing instead of a lot of things things, he said, I know that how can I,
223
which the correct form would be, I know how I can.
224
He said, I wish I would, then he didn't say, I wish I would be, I wish I would do something.
225
He used, you were not accurate in this part.
226
you said the world getting better without using the is.
227
So you have to say the world is getting better instead of the world getting better.
228
So try to also use some complex structures and pay attention to how they're used.
229
Try to practice them in order to increase your band score.
230
When it comes to pronunciation, you are easy to understand.
231
That's what matters.
232
You really you did a very great job.
233
Instead of a couple of mistakes, like stressed instead of stressed, you have to avoid that e or schwa.
234
Because in Iran, because of the form of their language, Persian language, we cannot say stressed or sport.
235
People here in Iran usually say sport or stress or school.
236
You have to pay attention and remove that schwa at the beginning of each word.
237
So you also said dreaming instead of dreaming and then close family instead of close family.
238
So paying attention to those subtle mistakes will definitely increase your band score.
239
Of course, we're not talking about pronunciation.
240
We're not talking about accent.
241
I repeat, we're not talking about accent.
242
We're talking about clarity.
243
You have to be clear and pronounce the words correctly.
244
So you had a very good intonation when you were speaking about something important.
245
You had that word stress and you had that sentence stress, which is very good.
246
You did a very great job in pronunciation.
247
So instead of, except for those couple of mistakes, very subtle mistakes, you did a great job.

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.
