I'd like to be a roller coaster tester.

I've always wanted to work as a mmm, now I'm mmm, and I'm rather good at it.

Yeah.

I'm in love with my job.

Work, work, work, work, work, work.

We're so good at this.

Yes.

hello lovely in this video we'll talk about work ielts speaking part one topic evergreen topic

because usually the examiner chooses to ask you questions either about accommodation

or work or studies so work it is today i'm maria

and my name is rory and we're the host of the ielts speaking for Success podcast, where we give you model answers and vocabulary for the latest IELTS speaking topics.

In one of our videos, we talked about studies and now we're going to be talking about work, right?

So, as you listen to Rory's answers, could you please think about your answers, okay?

So, think about what would I say and write the answers in the comments, okay?

This is how

answers not just listening to Rory's answers right Rory should people like our video

and subscribe they absolutely should if they're enjoying themselves

and they should share as well share with your friends

and family even people you don't like okay Rory are you ready yes let's talk about work

or studies do you work or are you a student I've been working as an English teacher for over eight years now.

Why did you choose this job?

It's something I've always wanted to do ever since I was a child.

I also happen to be rather good at it.

Do you like it?

I do.

I always say it's the best and easiest job in the world.

I get to meet interesting people from all over the place and well it caters to my love of organizing things.

What's the most interesting part?

Well I suppose it would be either the students themselves or finding the material to help them.

It's actually quite hard to source published materials for a specific student

and you often have to make well you often have to make up your own

or modify what's there so you get a nice buzz from successfully pulling

that off and what's the most difficult part well interesting

and difficult often overlap and the same is true here sometimes a student needs material

or asks for a class or lesson that focuses on something

so obscure that you wind up sitting there for a while after they ask for this thing and you're thinking to yourself, hmm, how am I going to do that?

However, I always get there in the end.

Is there anything you don't like about your job?

Not overly so.

I suppose sometimes people make requests and they aren't even students of mine.

So they just ask these things as

if I sort of sit on the internet doing nothing and just waiting for people to ask me a question.

And that can be quite frustrating, but most people understand when they get gently pushed back that they might have to wait for an answer.

What would you like to do in the future?

Well, actually, I've come to the conclusion that ideally I'd like to keep doing this.

I think I'd happily teach online for the rest of my days, to be honest.

However, I'm also training to be a primary school teacher, so we'll see how that pans out.

If it doesn't go according to plan, then at least there's a backup that I know I'll like.

Thank you very much, Rory, for your answers.

yeah so the first question is do you work

or are you a student if you do both if you work

and you are a student you can talk about both

but i think it's easier to talk about some like one

thing right again choose what is easier for you to talk about

and where you have you know more vocabulary where about like studies or work

and rory has used present perfect continuous he said i've been

working as an english teacher please make sure you use this

structure well i've been working as a doctor for a long time

and the next question was why did you choose it

and rory used the present perfect rory what did you say

it's something i've always wanted to do yeah present perfect i've

always wanted to be a doctor i've always wanted to do this

and now i'm doing this look at me hey

and then rory said that um i'm rather good at it

but rory is kind of modest

so he says I also happen to be rather good at

it like it's some kind of accident although it is oops oops I'm good at it yeah

but you can say like I've always wanted to do that

and I'm rather good at it right

or i work i've always wanted to work as a now i'm

and i'm rather good at it yeah

when the examiner asks you the question like do you like it

or no any other synonym

that we can use like i like it i like my job

or i don't like my job i'm in love with my job i'm in love with my job

or you could if it's the opposite like they say do you like it

and you could say well not particularly early and then explain why yeah

or the examiner might ask do you like it

or why do you like it you can say i enjoy it

because like the most enjoyable thing about my job is

that rory told us i get to meet interesting people

so i get to meet people right

so i have a chance to meet interesting people

and um then you said something like it caters well to my love of organizing things

but it caters well so something caters to something

that it just means that it it's um it's it helps

or it fits in with something

so for example well here being a teacher caters to like my love of organizing things

because when you're a teacher you should try to be organized um

but let's just say that you're a chef

so like being a chef caters to my love of cooking

or finding out about recipes because that's part of the job

so it's something and something that you already liked

so they work they fit together

and then what's the most interesting part you can say the most fascinating part is

that i get to meet interesting people and Rory, you said that you get a nice buzz.

Buzz.

Hey, stop it!

But that just means that I feel good after I actually managed to do something well.

100

And when you do something well, you successfully pull it off.

101

Which is a phrasal verb, I think.

102

Is it a phrasal verb?

103

It's a phrasal verb.

104

Our phrasal verb course.

105

No, it's successwithielts .com forward slash podcourses.

106

we're so good at this sweet yeah

107

so to pull it off means what uh to have done something right

108

so i pull it off i do it i complete it

109

yeah to do it to do it do it do it

110

what's the most difficult part in your job well you can say the most difficult

111

or the most complicated the most challenging part

112

is Roy talked about some materials for classes right yeah what

113

else can you say in in general about work maybe getting up early yeah

114

or even like you could just say there's nothing particularly taxing

115

about it it's just um you just need to pay attention

116

or something like that um so

117

if we talk about challenging then the word taxing as well

118

that just means makes you tired because you have to put effort in yeah

119

or it could be quite tiring i dislike having to meet

120

the deadlines yeah maybe i dislike my colleagues i hate my

121

boss yes that's why you should work for yourself don't work

122

in an office uh wind up yeah your favorite rory's favorite phrasal verb is allegedly people always say

123

that i say this like all the time but yeah

124

so you wind up sitting at work at night

125

or you wind up doing this or

126

that yes kind of you end up doing that

127

and um the examiner asks you what about things you don't like

128

or you dislike about your work about your job

129

so rory what did you talk about well i just said

130

that sometimes people make requests so that's good collocation to make a request yeah

131

and you said that that could be quite frustrating

132

and you said like a bit frustrating a little bit frustrating frustrating like like you don't don't like it

133

right and annoys you then the last question could be about the future

134

and is usually about the future what would you like to

135

do in the future would you like to change your job in the future

136

and Rory said I've come to a conclusion

137

that I want to do this for the rest of my life

138

and Rory said that for the rest of my days yeah

139

but the rest of your days

140

and the rest of your life are pretty much the same thing yeah

141

so you can say I'd I'd like to keep doing this right or

142

if I want to change things what should i say maybe

143

in the future i'd switch over to oh i'd like to switch over to yeah

144

or i'd like to switch my job

145

or i'd like to quit my job i'd like to become this

146

or if you're not sure you can use i'm into minds about

147

that maybe i'll become a chef or i'll become a celebrity, like a famous blogger, yeah, or I'll...

148

what would you like to do again here you can just lie

149

and you can create some you know you can tell the examiner

150

that uh i'd like to be you know what i've come to a conclusion that i'd like to be

151

a roller coaster tester yeah a person who tests roller coasters

152

although it should be come to the conclusion it's it's usually

153

i've come to the conclusion to the conclusion yeah i've come to conclusion

154

that i want to be this and another phrasal verb is pan out and we'll see how that

155

pans out pans out just means we'll see how well it's

156

like turns out pans out is i'm trying to think

157

if there's like a really easy to explain difference

158

but it's all to do with the end result it's like

159

just see what happens yeah a great phrasal verb uh to pan out

160

so we'll see how that pans out

161

or we'll see how this will pan out in the future what will happen right in the future

162

and um if it doesn't go well or

163

if it doesn't go to plan

164

if it doesn't pan out cool um anything else Rory

165

that you'd like to add about work not particularly although hopefully we've given you enough grammar

166

and vocabulary to work with here yes yeah

167

so make a choice is it work or studies for you

168

and make sure you use phrasal verbs natural phrasal verbs collocations

169

and present perfect with present perfect continuous

170

so I've been working as a I've always wanted you can

171

also say something like i used to i used to work as a doctor

172

but now i work as a lawyer for example

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
