Let's start off by talking about your job.

Do you work or do you study?

So I work as a full -time marketer for a coffee chain company.

Very interesting, it keeps me alive, it gives me the grit between creativity and as well analysis which is also one of my favourite parts.

In fact a little bit of time consuming part.

So yeah, marketing, I sell coffee, I get people in, make their day, that's it.

And what is the favorite aspect of your job?

I think it's when you apply the creative ideas and then they bring in results.

Of course, creativity is fun and nice and nice and good.

But then end of the day, it has to show results on paper as well.

Let's say in form of transactions, in form of business and so on.

So that's the best part.

And what's the most challenging part of your job?

That is the most challenging part.

That you have a lot of ideas coming in, like 100 ideas a day, which will be easy to imply and then

which will be let's say practical to give you the results

which you expect so that is the most hard part uh there's a lot of ideas

which get get skilled in a day hundreds of them a

lot of ideas those who you really want to do

but then it's not practical to imply but there are one

or two ideas which are financially and creatively both good So did you study marketing at university?

Coincidentally, no. I chose the more easier aspect of studies, that is administration, admin, BBA and admin.

When I did take the course of marketing, I started getting influenced by it.

And I really wanted to understand that

which part of any job would involve creativity at the same time it could be analysis

and it could be numbers and business of course.

Then I realized that either it's super creativity that is designing, which probably I was not good at, or it's marketing, which could be both.

So that's how I got into market.

Now let's talk about your free time.

What do you like to do in your free time?

In my free time,

I am a bit of a geek i'm a lot into podcasts investment podcasts life hacks improving productivity

which i am not very great at

so that's what i'm more busy in i do play playstation

which was gifted to me very recently and yeah if

if i do which i don't give myself free time by the way i'm not great at that.

I've been criticized for not being able to do that.

But yeah, if I have actual free time, then I do play PlayStation.

And would you consider yourself an active person?

Actually, no, I wouldn't consider myself an active person.

I barely make it to the gym twice or twice a week.

I think I could do better.

Do you prefer to be alone during your free time?

Or do you prefer to be with other people?

I think I still have not got the trick in to be alone and enjoy myself.

I'm not able to do that.

I think I need someone around me at any time of a day.

What was your favorite pastime or hobby when you were a child?

That's a very easy one.

It was all about playing games.

I used to actually also do very crazy stuff.

I don't know, playing with flames and all when I was young, which I don't recommend anybody doing at home.

I used to do that.

But yeah, a lot of time playing video games, a lot of video games.

Now let's talk about food.

In your hometown or in the region where you grew up, is there any famous food?

Yeah, so I'm from Hyderabad originally in India where I've not been a lot

but the most famous thing worldwide is the Hyderabadi biryani itself.

So spicy, not healthy, very tasty and finger licking.

Is there just one type of biryani or there are many of many types?

Actually there are a lot in India there.

I think if I try to guess it right there could be around 100 types of biryanis at least.

So there is Lucknavi biryani, there is Kerala biryani, there is Hyderabad biryani which is quite famous

and then there is Bombay biryani and then there's so many biryanis but biryani which actually came from Persia, it's a Persian dish

which Indians kind of made it their own way with a lot of spice

and a lot of oil which they do with a lot of things

so yes that's that's the history of biryani and also very interesting is that talking about Persia,

Hyderabad as a city was basically made as an idea, as a blueprint based on a city in Iran,

which is called, which used to be called Isfahan.

So the blueprint of the city was copied from there and when they came to the first bridge of Hyderabad, they said I wish this city to be like a fish.

If someone was having a special occasion at the wedding in your hometown, are there any typical dishes that would be fair?

Yeah, so um...

Just jumping in to give you our three tips.

We analyzed hundreds of about 7, 8 and 9 speaking performances and we analyzed the book of Hyderabad.

We put all the best words phrases in one PDF for you.

If you would like that go to the description click on the link that I'll give you.

You can download it 100 % or see.

Very interesting stuff for Buriyan.

It comes at the site.

This is excellent food.

It's a good society and it saves a lot of dessert.

So weddings in India especially in my hometown, Hedibat, it's a lot about food.

a lot of food.

So we do have healthy stuff as well which is called two salads

but comes with custard so it becomes custard food salad.

So it becomes unhealthy.

So like I said, if it's all about food, it has to be tasty.

There is no way probably in a wedding anybody is looking for kale or looking for any healthy options.

Now let's talk about museums.

Did you enjoy going to museums when you were picked?

I did.

My first museum was in Bahrain, where I was born and brought up, was the Dinosaur Museum.

I was very fascinated because I was probably in fifth grade

and I thought that at first glance I was very fascinated because I was out from the Dinosaur Museum.

and since then I've got accustomed to going to any country and then visiting the museum.

What's the most interesting museum you've ever been to?

Most interesting museum is I think when I was travelling to Bayreuth,

there was a museum and I'm not wrong,

I'm not very good with remembering facts But I think it was one of the oldest statues of Mother Mary,

100

which is very, very beautiful and very fascinating.

101

And the Beirut Museum had a lot of history, music history, which I enjoyed using.

102

Are there any historical stories and cultural significance that you would like to visit in Egypt?

103

I think after my visit to Jaipur, which is part of Rajasthan in India, I think India has a lot of cities which are not in India.

104

Not only historically but as well as like there is a second highest rainfall city in India,

105

in the world, which is called Meghalaya, which I would love to visit.

106

and especially in the state, which is my dream.

107

And historically, yes, more cities in Rajeshwar, apart from the state.

108

It has a lot of fallacies, a lot of Mughal history, a lot of grassroots history.

109

Beautiful.

110

So there was a campaign, like I mentioned, I'm a marketer.

111

There was a campaign called, Saddle for your Smoothies.

112

So we had introduced something, a smoothies line in my kitchen company and when we did that,

113

the first day it didn't do so well as a second.

114

So now we are thinking about a crazy idea how to make the system work.

115

So we came across an agency used to be spatula for your smoothie where there were mixers kept on a cycle,

116

you would spatula for 30 to 40 seconds and then your smoothie is ready.

117

So we thought instead of just doing a regular marketing cycle, why don't we do activation?

118

So we chose 3 locations to do it where the football is heavy, some locations where it was about family crowds,

119

some locations where it was about more interactive crowds.

120

So we called in transfers, we did a lot of digital marketing on

121

that one people came in to my surprise people were more interested in it than I expected

122

so there were small shops of smoothies, you settle for your own smoothies, you burn a few calories, you get a small smoothies which is sugar -free so that actually worked very very hard,

123

very well I need to say and we launched this in full one week,

124

it was a very quick campaign from business marketing to influencer marketing and offline marketing and so on.

125

I think it was a big hit.

126

People loved doing this activity.

127

It was in very prominent and heavy footfall areas of people, those who were passerby.

128

So these were not only our customers, but also people who were basically people from outside the store, I would say.

129

We were invited and they did that.

130

This helps the sales a lot.

131

And it also won us the brand campaign of the year twice.

132

So I think here's the example which I was connecting to creativity and results both together.

133

So we've talked about a piece of work you did, and we're going to continue to talk about job satisfaction and life satisfaction.

134

What are some aspects of someone's life that they often feel dissatisfied with?

135

People feel dissatisfied about a lot of things in life.

136

But I think one thing which carries on, in my opinion, is that when you wanted to do something

137

and you couldn't pursue it as a passion into your professional life, I think that stays with you for a very, very long time.

138

I've seen that in my family.

139

I've seen that in many people around me.

140

Also, I think the dissatisfaction doesn't come from not able to just continue it

141

because you want to succeed into it as well.

142

That's where the issue comes in because you want to be a star in the thing you like.

143

But if you really like it, you don't have to be a star in it you could still do it

144

and at the same time not succeed as a star in it

145

but you will enjoy doing it anyway

146

so I think that's one thing one topic

147

which people carry it inside them even

148

if they don't mention it everybody has a story

149

that someone wants to be a musician someone wants to be I don't know an actor a painter

150

but they couldn't do it because they wanted to get a full -time job which we all need and do.

151

I think that's one topic which I would like to mention here.

152

What is the most important thing for having a satisfying life?

153

I think it's a mindset.

154

You're never going to get the answer until probably you are later in your stage of your life, I think.

155

For a child, it could be a video game

156

or a cycle he was looking for or she was looking for

157

or for an adult it could be the favorite college

158

which he or she thinks that after this I'm going to be satisfied

159

but that doesn't happen then it's your favorite job

160

and then it's your favorite car it never ends

161

but then I think if you have the right mindset which we all easy said than done

162

try and try to reach there where we say that I'm satisfied.

163

But let's say I'm not reached there, so I wouldn't be able to answer that accurately.

164

Is it more important to have a high salary or work with a great team?

165

No doubt, work with a great team.

166

But then again, the world is very commercial.

167

It needs money.

168

So keeping in mind that you don't stoop down so low in your career that you work for nothing.

169

But at the same time, you do make some compromises to work with a great team.

170

I think if you have a great team, earning will come.

171

Anyways, so look for a great team.

172

Look for a great boss.

173

Look for a great environment as well.

174

Okay, so let me give you some feedback.

175

Sure.

176

I'm going to take you through part one, part two, and part three.

177

Give you some strategic advice on each of those parts and then we'll talk about your scores, what you would get if you did the real test.

178

182

So part one, you did really well.

183

You had no problem talking about any of those topics.

184

I think any topic that was getting to know you questions would be absolutely fine for you.

185

One, it's not so much a problem as just like a strategy that you chose, which is you talked about trying to remember facts.

186

Yeah.

187

And it seems sometimes you were trying to remember the right fact or list the right fact.

188

Sure.

189

It's not a factual knowledge test.

190

Yeah.

191

So you're making it more difficult for yourself by trying to think of the correct thing.

192

The best thing to do is just pick the easiest thing.

193

So for example, if I ask you about a museum, pick the museum that is easiest for you to talk about.

194

Don't worry too much about factual accuracy, as long as it's not really like saying the sky is purple, you know, instead of the sky is blue.

195

Like as long as it's not ridiculous and it doesn't make any sense.

196

But you will never lose marks for something that is slightly inaccurate, as I say, because it's not a knowledge test or a facts based test.

197

and you are making it more difficult for yourself by trying to think of the correct thing.

198

Right.

199

It's a speaking test, so just show how great your speaking is.

200

Part two, I thought, was excellent.

201

You had no problem talking about that.

202

The thing I really liked was that you picked something real from your real life.

203

It is much easier to talk about things that actually happened and that you're passionate about.

204

So that was excellent.

205

Sometimes you will get a part two question where you cannot do that, but it is quite rare.

206

For example, you might get a question about,

207

talk about a book that you recently read maybe talk about a marketing book because that's your job.

208

Or a movie that you saw recently.

209

You could talk about a movie that is based on marketing or something like that.

210

I can't think, like the Steve Jobs movie or the Nike movie recently.

211

If it's too difficult to do that, don't do it.

212

But I'm just showing you how you can steer the answers towards what you're either passionate about

213

or what your specialist subject is.

214

I know you're a marketer, but you might have other passions that you find very easy to talk about.

215

Think about what those are before you go into the test.

216

And you can't use it for everything.

217

You know, if they say, what food do you like?

218

You're like, well, I like food that I marketed.

219

You know, I like coffee because I like, you know, just if they asked you what food you liked and you said coffee and talked about how you marketed coffee,

220

that would be not answering the question because coffee isn't food.

221

But just be careful with that but it is a good strategy to use

222

and you used it really really well

223

and it allowed you to use a lot of very um

224

topic specific vocabulary like vocabulary for example like the footfall is

225

heavy why don't we do activations the brand campaign of the year you only really use

226

that when talking about that topic or similar topics so

227

if you get what the examiner will be thinking is well

228

if he can use vocabulary at that level for

229

that topic he can probably do it for multiple in multiple different topics therefore his overall vocabulary is very good

230

so did a very good job there part three

231

was not bad was it was actually good

232

but i think there's certain areas where you can improve in

233

part three you talked a lot about things on a very

234

surface level you didn't go very deep on anything by giving real examples

235

so you talked about you know not doing things that you want in life and And you said, you know, we talked about why that might be disappointing.

236

And then you talked about different people.

237

And then you talked generally about becoming an actor or a painter or something like that.

238

Is there a real example from your real life?

239

Some people feel very uncomfortable talking about their real life.

240

So don't do that if you are that type of person.

241

Maybe talk about, you know, did you want to be an actor?

242

Or did you want to be a painter?

243

Or did your father or your mother or your sister or your brother or a friend, And they really wanted to pursue some,

244

or maybe in your society or where you're from, are they, do parents, you know,

245

encourage people to become doctors and lawyers and accountants rather than painters and actors, you know, and talking about it in a more concrete, deeper way.

246

Yes.

247

Because you did it again for the second question in a slightly different way where you talked about mindset, but you didn't really define what you meant by mindset.

248

Does that mean a growth mindset?

249

Does that mean being honest with yourself and understanding yourself?

250

What does that actually mean?

251

What kind of mindset?

252

Yeah.

253

So often people don't do that because they are afraid of sounding patronizing.

254

Like you don't want to explain what mindset means because then, oh, you don't think I know what mindset means?

255

Don't assume that the examiner knows what you mean.

256

Always explain what you mean.

257

Sure.

258

If we went for lunch after this and we were talking about mindset, I would be able to say to you, what do you mean by mindset?

259

Yeah what specific aspect of mindset, but because in the IELTS test the examiner isn't going to ask you those back and forth questions,

260

in part three you kind of need to assume okay he's not

261

or she's not going to ask me these follow -up questions

262

so I need to lay it all out for them

263

and you did a very good job of always answering the question

264

but then not really explaining what you mean by that in depth.

265

Yeah.

266

So answer the question, explain what you mean, give concrete examples.

267

If you can, you don't have to, it's not a rigid structure that you have to follow for everything.

268

I'm just helping you.

269

You seem to have quite a broad range of life experiences.

270

Try to insert them a little bit into you.

271

You did a really good job with that in part two, but overall good.

272

That would be the only thing um part one don't treat

273

it as a as a knowledge test part three go go

274

deep you want you go very wide instead of four different things pick one

275

or two and go deep specific all right sure but But don't think.. so specific that you think, hmm, let me think of an example.

276

Let me think of a personal experience.

277

Like if that is the case, just move on to an idea that you feel more comfortable talking about.

278

There's no right or wrong answer here.

279

Pick what is out of all my life experience?

280

What is the one or two things that are that are easy for me to talk about?

281

Yes.

282

So let's talk about your scores, what you would get if you did the real test.

283

OK.

284

Let's talk about your strengths and then we'll talk about things that you need to work on.

285

Sure.

286

I think next time when you come back, you are capable of getting a much higher score.

287

So fluency is probably your biggest strength.

288

You have no problem speaking at length about any topic and you do very, very fluently.

289

The only time where you have audible pauses

290

or the flow of your language is a little bit unnatural is when you're trying to think of the next idea, which is totally fine.

291

When you're speaking Hindi, you do exactly the same thing.

292

I'm sure you know people, Elon Musk, for example, is a native English speaker.

293

And he's always, that's not because his English is bad.

294

It's because he's trying to think of the next idea.

295

Because he's thinking very deeply about very technical things.

296

You are sometimes making it more difficult for yourself by trying to think of the next fact.

297

Just the easiest thing to talk about.

298

That's really going to improve your fluency.

299

But your fluency is not bad at all.

300

I don't think you would get the very top mark.

301

I think you're at about eight, which is very close to native English speaker level, which is very, very, very high.

302

But I think fluency is your biggest strength.

303

Sure, let's target nine.

304

I think you're capable of getting a nine.

305

The problem with the IELTS scoring is it's difficult to get nine in one thing

306

if you're getting lower scores for the other three things.

307

So it's not like I'm really good at fluency.

308

Let's focus on getting a really high score for fluency.

309

And then overall, I'll get you kind of need you need to bring everything up to the right level.

310

So what we were doing is we're focusing on your weaknesses more than your strengths.

311

Because your strengths are your strengths.

312

We can't really improve those a huge amount.

313

Where we see the biggest improvement with IELTS students is the

314

analogy I always use is what your car is broken down what part of the car is broken.

315

Is it a flat tire?

316

Is it a spark plug?

317

Is it a problem with the engine?

318

You don't go and buy a new car, leave the car on the side of the road and go and buy a new one.

319

You find the problem and fix the problem and then the car can go exactly the same with this.

320

Your pronunciation, so a very common problem with Indian speakers.

321

In the comments, don't go crazy.

322

I'm not criticizing Indians.

323

This is just a common thing that we see all the time.

324

Sometimes they have something called accent interference.

325

Accent interference is when somebody's accent is so strong that you cannot understand some of the words that they're saying.

326

You do not have that problem.

327

And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with having an Indian accent, by the way.

328

I never suggest that someone should sound more British or sound more American.

329

I think that's ridiculous.

330

I think it's just a waste of time people can do it

331

if they want you do you like you know what

332

if you want to do that that's fine

333

but i think for you that's a complete waste of time

334

what we encourage people to do is use in their own

335

accent be as clear as possible to get a seven eight

336

or nine for pronunciation you need to get a hundred percent

337

of the the examiner needs to understand a hundred percent of the words i understood 100 of the words

338

so i think you are fine the vast majority of time you are extremely clear.

339

The really impressive thing about your pronunciation is the way that you use something called higher level pronunciation features.

340

This is something called intonation.

341

And so you, when you're speaking, you're very enthusiastic, especially when you're talking about topics and you're very friendly and you show that through intonation,

342

you show your passion and you show meaning and you show friendliness.

343

So for example, if you came in and I said, please sit down.

344

So So please up, sit down.

345

Ah, right.

346

Or if I said, please sit down.

347

So same words, different meaning.

348

Intonation is so important for meaning.

349

And you do a very good job of that.

350

You also use quite good word stress and sentence stress.

351

So if I said something like, this is my coffee, that's your coffee.

352

The words that we stress change the meaning of a sentence.

353

You do that quite well as well.

354

So that's really good.

355

So I think that you would get a quite high mark for pronunciation.

356

I think you would get a band -aid again.

357

But if you spoke very quickly and the examiner couldn't understand what you were saying...

358

at some point you would probably get about six

359

so it's a huge drop off i don't think this is the case

360

and i don't think that you should go in to the test and try to slow down your speech

361

because some people become that that can cause other problems it can cause you're self -conscious

362

but i think um maybe during your practice record yourself

363

and sometimes when people listen back to themselves they're like oh i speak

364

that quick yeah

365

and it can help you modulate some people watching from India might be thinking oh I didn't realize and

366

and I might be speaking a little bit too quickly right

367

for those people I would say a little bit of practice speaking slower

368

and clearer might go a long way sure

369

because often people don't have a problem with their pronunciation but

370

when you combine it with speaking quickly it just it it it's difficult for the listener to understand

371

because we think about why do we speak we don't speak for the sake of speaking, you speak so someone can understand that.

372

So if you're speaking in a way that somebody can't understand you, you've just wasted their time and your time, but everyone has little issues with that.

373

So vocabulary is very accurate, it is appropriate.

374

Which is the choice of words.

375

So appropriate is are you choosing the right words.

376

So for example, if you're talking about footfall and some people might say well

377

and we chose that spot because a lot of people are walking past sure

378

and whereas a more precise way would say there's heavy footfall yeah all right

379

so a very precise very appropriate way of saying that you were using those types of topic specific words very correctly.

380

I never like to tell people to use a wider range of vocabulary than they're capable of using.

381

So if I tell you, you have to use higher level vocabulary, if you try and use that, if your test was tomorrow,

382

you would probably get a much lower score than you did because you would make so many mistakes.

383

So if somebody can normally lift 50 kilos

384

and we say let's lift 150 that would be great yes to

385

if we could do that but we're going to end up injuring our back

386

and and going to the hospital same thing happens

387

if i say to you your vocabulary isn't it isn't high

enough you need to use a wider range of vocabulary you will go into the test

389

and try and make lots of mistakes

390

but for now for being a marketer like if you wanted to be a marketer in London or New York,

391

the range of vocabulary that you have is perfect.

392

It's fine because everyone can understand you no matter what topic you're talking about and you're using it accurately.

393

So I think you're at a band seven, which is very, very good.

394

It's not at a band eight or a band nine level.

395

I think that you're probably capable of getting a band eight, but you would need to practice.

396

I think your vocabulary is a little bit higher than what you showed there.

397

I think you could improve it quite quickly,

398

but you would need to do a lot of practice tests where you attempt using higher level vocabulary

399

and see how successful you are.

400

I think your biggest weakness is grammar.

401

So sometimes a common error that I spotted was double comparatives, double superlatives.

402

You're saying it was most hard instead of hardest.

403

So that is the most hard part.

404

I chose the more easier, which I am not very great at.

405

You're either great or you're not.

406

So the way that most people learn grammar is, so let's say the grammar book is that thick.

407

There's hundreds of areas of grammar.

408

Most people don't have a problem with the whole book.

409

They have one area.

410

So this is your area where comparatives, superlatives, you are struggling a little bit with

411

that the reason why you were doing

412

that is no one has ever pointed it out no one

413

has ever corrected you in your day -to -day job people are probably not even noticing it

414

so don't become self -conscious I need to stop it I

415

think you the majority of your sentences have no grammar errors in them at all

416

and every time you're using comparatives and superlatives you're not making this mistake.

417

So if every time you used a comparative or superlative, you made this error, that would lead to maybe a band six for grammar,

418

because it's called a systematic error.

419

Every time you use that system, a comparative, a superlative, you mess it up.

420

That would lead the examiner to think, okay, this person needs to work on that area.

421

It's sometimes you make that mistake, but not all of the time.

422

What I would encourage you to do is instead of using the word very and a short superlative like very great,

423

can you think of a single word that is it means the same as very great?

424

Great.

425

Great or...

426

um fluent it's very specific

427

or amazing amazing all right instead of very great he's amazing

428

all right instead of um it very hard we could use difficult exactly

429

so that's improving your vocabulary and it's improving your grammar at the same time

430

but as i said at the moment it is not a huge problem

431

and overall you would get 7 .5

432

which is enough to do any master's degree in any english

433

speaking country you want to do okay it is enough to

434

get any visa in any country you want to go to

435

some countries like australia do a points -based system where

436

if you really wanted to get a higher amount of points to get into a country like

437

that we could work on your vocabulary

438

and your grammar to get you up to a band eight

439

but this was the first time you've ever done the test yes

440

so you you got out of the dream score of the

441

vast majority of people first time all right thank you very much Thank you.

442

Thank you for your time.

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.
