1
Okay, this is the speaking test of the International English Language Testing System, taking place on Thursday the 6th of August.
2
Centre number DDE120, and the candidate is Sarah O'Dayma.
3
The candidate number is 01313458, the examiner is Samson Sees, examiner number 443533.
4
Good afternoon.
5
Good afternoon.
6
My name is Samson, would you please tell me your full name?
7
My name is Sarah Odeyma.
8
Thank you.
9
May I see your identification?
10
Sure.
11
Thank you.
12
In the first part of the exam, I will ask you some personal questions.
13
Are you a student or do you work now?
14
Presently, I am working as a teacher.
15
Okay.
16
And why did you choose this job?
17
I chose to become a teacher because I felt like teaching is part of me.
18
And when I am in the classroom, I really feel happy that I help my students improve themselves in a wide range of areas.
19
And what I like most about teaching is I feel like I'm elevating the level of the knowledge of my students.
20
Is there anything about your job you would like to change?
21
Not really.
22
However, when I come to think of the payment,
23
I wish I could go back in time and opt for another career because of the low payment.
24
Sometimes it really brings me down and it's the thing that really keeps me frustrated all the time.
25
I'd like to move on and ask you some questions about shopping.
26
Who does most of the shopping in your household?
27
Well, actually, it's not only one person who does the shopping for the household.
28
I would say it's a shared responsibility and everyone has a role to play in the household.
29
So we always tend to go shopping together.
30
And what type of shopping do you like and why?
31
What I like most about shopping, when it comes to shopping,
32
is buying presents for my friends or maybe people's birthdays or even Christmas.
33
My favorite store is a bulk store, which is in the least of my top priority.
34
And I believe if I buy a bulk for someone, it is not only considered a gift,
35
but also I can help that person gain another piece of knowledge.
36
So it brings me a great sense of satisfaction.
37
Great.
38
And is shopping a popular activity in your country?
39
Why?
40
Why not?
41
It is indeed.
42
On Thursdays and Fridays, people pour into the streets and shopping centers.
43
It is considered more as a leisure activity than just they are not aiming to buy something practical.
44
So I see that most teenagers and people go shopping, sometimes go window shopping or they wander around the mall.
45
So I don't think they buy something practical for...
46
Okay, so what type of shops do teenagers like best in your country?
47
Well, I haven't thought about this before, but obviously like any other teenagers, they are much more into shopping clothes,
48
makeup to beautify themselves, or maybe some music stuffs, and these kind of things.
49
Right.
50
Okay, let's talk about films.
51
How often do you go to the cinema?
52
To be honest with you, I don't even get to go to the movies.
53
I only manage to watch one to two films every week.
54
And after a long day of teaching, what I love most is, you know, snuggling up on a sofa and watch my favorite film,
55
which really helps me unwind.
56
I usually do this on Fridays.
57
And what type of films do you like best?
58
I'm very much into drama in historical movies
59
because it can help me gain a better understanding of the historical events in the past
60
and even about the human emotions in the past.
61
So I believe there is always something to learn from the past events,
62
historical events, and even to pass it on to the upcoming generations in the future.
63
Wonderful.
64
Okay, that is the end of part one.
65
We'll now move on to part two.
66
I'm going to give you a topic, and I'd like you to talk about it for one to two minutes.
67
Before you talk, you'll have one minute to think about what you're going to say, and you can make notes if you wish.
68
Do you understand?
69
Yes.
70
Wonderful.
71
Here's your paper.
72
Thank you.
73
Pencil.
74
and here is your topic.
75
You now have one minute to make notes.
76
Thank you.
77
Okay, you will now have two minutes to speak about your topic.
78
Don't worry if the time is over.
79
I will stop you after the two minutes.
80
You may start speaking now.
81
I would like to talk about the time when I graduated from high school.
82
It was at the peak of summer when I had to study really hard for the senior grade of high school.
83
On that year, I had to sacrifice everything and give up on all the joys
84
and to somehow step out of my comfort zone.
85
Despite all of this, I managed to keep a high spirit
86
because I knew that this would end very quickly
87
and on top of all that this would mark a significant milestone on
88
that year so I burned the midnight oil for months on end
89
and after a couple of months
90
when I wrapped my certificate in hand it was I was like over the moon
91
and I could I get the feeling
92
that all the sufferings have come to an end
93
and it was like the time to open a new page of my life.
94
And for this reason, my parents were so proud of me to throw a graduation party for me and
95
to move on more to the details,
96
I can say that this party was only a dinner party which only included my own family and some of my friends.
97
My parents invited a musical band to perform my favorite songs.
98
And we all had a blast together on that night.
99
And at the end, everyone congratulated me and wished me a successful college year ahead.
100
And I was really proud of myself on that night,
101
which marked an indelible moment for me that I will treasure forever, I think.
102
I am really looking forward for the college life in the future.
103
Thank you very much.
104
That is the end of part two.
105
Two minutes is over.
106
I will take your papers back now.
107
Thank you very much.
108
And the paper you have there, the topic.
109
Thank you.
110
We'll now move on to part three.
111
So we've been talking about an important event in your life, and I'd now like to ask you some questions related to this.
112
Here we go.
113
What days are important in your country?
114
The majority of our population are Muslims,
115
and that is why Muslims tend to celebrate Eid as a national event as a national festival
116
and it's like a huge celebration they sometimes pay and repay the visit
117
to one another and sometimes they buy some new clothes
118
and they cook some special cuisines on that day
119
and it is considered a happy moment on that day wow and why is it important to have
120
national celebrations uh when i come to think of it national celebrations can boost the unity among nations
121
and another thing about these national festivals is the great advantage that it
122
it is an over it gives an overview of it reflects an overview of the attitude of gratitude
123
and enjoying everything that we own, everything we have, instead of the things that we don't or that we want in the future.
124
So it's a great moment to be grateful for what we have.
125
And how is the way your national celebrations are celebrated now different from the way they they were celebrated in the past?
126
Actually, I am not very into the celebrations that have happened, that people used to have in the past,
127
but about today, I think people tend to care a lot more
128
about some private parties that people in the past didn't used to have.
129
It's something that people in the past, I think, used to celebrate more indoors,
130
whereas today people are celebrating outdoors with their friends.
131
Like teenagers, they are more reluctant than ever to celebrate these national festivals with their family members or relatives.
132
They like to have their own independent lives and enjoy themselves independently.
133
Okay, and are there any celebrations from other countries that you celebrate in your country?
134
Absolutely.
135
Recently, we can easily see that people are celebrating some celebrations that are not part of their culture.
136
Like, for example, Valentine's Day or Halloween's Day.
137
They are not part of our culture.
138
And despite all of this, they are celebrating it at a large scale.
139
And what are the benefits of having events that many people around the world are celebrating on the same day?
140
In my opinion, there are a lot of positive aspects involved in these global events.
141
It reminds us of the fact that all the people around the world are humans,
142
humans and we all have the same values no matter what race religion entity
143
or or no matter who we are we are all sharing this world together to celebrate together
144
and do you think any new national celebrations will come into
145
being in the future it's a good question i would say yes
146
because we have seen so many celebrations that have been added to our daily lives through history
147
and the future is not an exception we can expect any
148
new festival to be added in the future okay thank you very much that is the end of the speaking test.
149
Everything is spot on.
150
Your use of grammar is very much like a native speaker.
151
The way you use it and your vocabulary, your vocabulary is absolutely, that is spot on too.
152
I like the way you use it.
153
Your use of vocabulary is very wide.
154
It's got a great variety.
155
And I would definitely say that you're a band nine, because you're ticking all the boxes that the examiners want in this IELTS speaking test.
156
I mean, when you had these, you had a few pauses in between, but that's what a native speaker would do.
157
They would pause in between and obviously move on to the rest of their story, because you were thinking about your story.
158
You are not looking for a new choice of words
159
or any idioms which you were using naturally in some of your answers.
160
You use them exactly where they were supposed to be used.
161
You weren't using too much of them because we get this a lot, especially over here.
162
We have a lot of examiners saying the more idioms you use, the better that's going to give you points.
163
That's not the case at all.
164
The examiner doesn't want to see someone talking more complicated.
165
They want to see that you're natural.
166
That's why we call it coherence.
167
Coherence is your natural way of speaking, to be something close to a native speaker, being fluent.
168
And your pronunciations are all absolutely perfect, 100% spot on.
169
So you really don't have any trouble gaining this bad 9.
170
You are naturally a bad 9.
171
And you're speaking loudly, that obviously helps a lot.
172
If I was going to tell you to be any better than you are now, make any improvements for this test,
173
I would say just speak slightly slower to just keep eye of the time
174
or think about the time because obviously you have two minutes to speak in part two.
175
And part three, there are questions, but if you answer these questions too fast, then you're going to obviously limit yourself.
176
And it's just better maybe to stick to the first three answers and think what you're going to say more, just elaborate on it more.
177
That's all you have to do.
178
I mean, I wouldn't say go after more vocabulary.
179
I wouldn't say work on your grammar because they're all spot on, they're all perfect.
180
and you're very articulate, you're very completely crisp, understandable.
181
And is there any questions you'd like to ask?
182
No, thank you.
183
About the coherence and the fluency, was it fine?
184
The fluency, that's what I was saying.
185
Fluency was absolutely spot on.
186
I mean, that was something very impressive and close to what any native speaker would do.
187
And the pauses are just topic related, they're not at all language related from what I'm looking at.
188
They're all in place.
189
Your pronunciations are perfect.
190
Your use of vocabulary was very impressive, because that's obviously going to be examined too.
191
And when you have this wide range of vocabulary, you're going to have less self-repetition, which you absolutely did not have.
192
I mean, if you were trying to fix your sentence, because that happens, this is not a news bulletin.
193
We're having a normal conversation here.
194
So all I would say is that definitely just take care of the speed.
195
You've got room to slow down a little bit.
196
You don't have to rush it.
197
It's not a race, it's just a conversation split up into three parts.
198
Obviously part two being more like a monologue followed by part three which is the follow-up of part two.
199
It's just elaborating more on the related topic.
200
You seem to know very much what you are talking about
201
and you are very comfortable with the topics that you were given.

Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?
O vídeo apresentado oferece uma visão clara do teste de fala do IELTS, onde a candidata, Sarah O'Dayma, demonstra um nível extraordinário de fluência e capacidade de comunicação. Praticar com vídeos como este é uma maneira eficaz de melhorar sua prática de conversação em inglês, pois você pode ouvir as estruturas e expressões utilizadas em um contexto real. Além disso, você pode adotar a técnica de shadow speak, que consiste em repetir o que ouve, ajudando não apenas na pronúncia, mas também na construção de confiança durante a fala. Ao assistir e imitar, você mergulha na experiência de um falante fluente, o que é essencial para melhorar suas habilidades em inglês.
Gramática & Expressões em Contexto
No vídeo, podemos observar algumas estruturas gramaticais e expressões que são cruciais para a conversação:
- Usos de "present continuous": Sarah menciona que está "working as a teacher". Essa estrutura é frequentemente usada em inglês para descrever atividades em andamento.
- Perguntas indiretas: A abordagem do examinador, ao perguntar sobre a ocupação de Sarah e seus sentimentos sobre o trabalho, ilustra como formulá-las de maneira natural. Por exemplo, "Is there anything about your job you would like to change?"
- Conectores de ideia: Sarah utilizou expressões como "not really" e "however", que ajudam a conectar pensamentos e adicionar fluidez à conversa. Isso é vital para qualquer interlocutor que deseja soar mais natural.
Armadilhas Comuns de Pronúncia
Durante a conversa, há palavras e expressões que podem ser desafiadoras para falantes não nativos. Preste atenção nas seguintes:
- Pronúncia de "responsibility": Essa palavra tem uma sílaba tônica que pode ser difícil de capturar, então praticar sua pronúncia permite maior clareza.
- Palavras como "satisfaction": Muitas vezes, a entonação de palavras longas pode ser considerada um desafio. Ouvir atentamente e repetir pode ajudar a superar dificuldades.
- Expressões conectivas: Frases como "I would say" e "so we always tend to" podem não apenas mudar a entonação, mas também alterar a dinâmica da conversa, e são essenciais para fluência.
Implementar a prática de shadowing em inglês com esses elementos em mente não só melhora a pronúncia, mas também maximiza sua capacidade de se engajar em conversas, tornando a shadowspeak uma ferramenta poderosa em seu aprendizado.
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.
