Let's start off by talking about belongings in your daily life.

Do you prefer having fewer or more belongings in your daily life?

I think personally for me,

I'd prefer having fewer belongings just because I feel like it would be more easier to deal with on a daily basis,

especially when it comes with technology, trying to decide like if I had a laptop and an iPad and a phone, I have all three of like the same kind of thing.

to function in life with less.

- What things can you not live without?

- Ooh, my phone.

I can't live without my phone.

What else can't I live without?

Water.

always staying hydrated, Um...

and my cats.

How do you organize your belongings?

Sometimes I do it by color.

If it was like things related to books, I like to organize them by colors on the shelves.

Yeah.

Now let's talk about technology in modern life.

How has technology changed your life?

I think technology has changed.

my life in so many different ways.

One of them being the ability to connect with people.

I have personally I have a lot of long distance friends, and technology has allowed me to stay in touch with those people.

And even though they don't, they're not with you personally, you do feel like you never miss that connection because of technology.

And I think work related technology offers

um me a lot of opportunity to connect and network with many different kind of people

Would you like to have more technology in your life or less technology in your life?

I personally would like to have less technology in my life just because I feel like technology sometimes defeats

the purpose of humanity in a sense of if there's too much of it, like like nowadays with the AI and all of that,

it's kind of starting to replace human beings in a sense.

And Yeah, I would like to depend less on technology generally.

Do you think technology has made your life better now than in the past when you had less technology?

Yes, to a certain extent, just because I feel like back then, We didn't have Instagram.

We didn't have those social media, the iconic social media platforms that all young teenagers use.

And those are the main platforms people are using now to connect with people and to network.

And especially if you're running your own business, for example, like trying to share your music or share art,

that's how you Um, come out to a bigger platform.

So definitely I feel like it has a bigger advantage than what we had in the past.

Now let's talk about reading.

Do you enjoy reading?

I do enjoy reading, but I wish I did more of it.

I feel like with technology and all the modern things coming up.

I feel like I used to read more as a child, and I'm trying to get back into it,

some of the things I love reading about are self -help books.

Those are my favorite.

Now let's talk about outdoor activities.

What activities do you like to do outdoors?

Outdoors, I love to go running sometimes.

I like to do morning yogas.

I've had yogas by the beach before.

I really love joining group classes outdoors as well.

I once did this thing where we started off with a morning yoga

and then it went into a HIIT workout and then a yoga workout cool down.

I love to go swimming, I love the ocean, I love to be by the beach.

How often do you spend time outside?

Not as often as I would like just because given the location I'm in right now, it gets pretty hot and humid.

And I wish our weather would accommodate being outdoors more often.

But I try my best to be outside as much as possible.

When you are outside, do you prefer being alone or with other people?

I think...

I prefer being alone just because it gives you that space to be with yourself and to disconnect from everyone around you.

For me personally, sometimes I feel like when I'm around people, my social battery dies very quickly and it could be a lot to take in.

Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Of course, I'd love to hang out with my friends and be around my friends.

I spend most of my time by myself in nature walking around the city

and I find that one learns a lot when they spend time with their self and the energies around them.

In the future, would you like to do more activities outdoors?

Yes, for sure.

I always wanted to try out paragliding, skiing.

Skiing has been one of like an outdoor activity I'd always wanted to do.

A time where I had to adapt to a new situation, it came when I graduated from high school and I had to finally move to college.

And I was one of the people that decided ultimately to move out of my home place to go abroad for university,

just because I felt like university had a university abroad had more resources and opportunity.

It was pretty difficult to fit in, people have different culture over there,

different outlook, on life, but I needed to adapt because That was the only...

way I could grow in that environment.

I think that some days were better than others.

It was pretty difficult in the beginning just because I felt like in the beginning you feel very out of place.

Like for example when I started my degree I didn't really have prior experience to the art world

and everything related to the art world from in my home country.

So when I moved I kind of was like in between everyone that was inexperienced or less experienced.

And it got to me sometimes, sometimes I cried in class, I had my breakdowns.

But I think I learned a lot that you keep

pushing through in those situations it could be

so easy to cave in to the bad or the negative

but if you just take it as a learning experience and keep moving after a year two years pass by

one starts to acclimate to their environment and one starts to adapt properly.

We have been talking about a new situation you had to adapt to.

We're going to continue to talk about change and adaptation and personal growth, things like that.

Why do some people find it harder to adapt to change than others?

To thank you for watching this video, I want to give you a free course that has helped thousands of students improve their IELTS speaking score.

What it's going to do is take you through every single part of the test and give you strategies for part one, part two, and part three,

and also allow you to practice at home for free and get feedback.

To sign up for that for free, all you have to do is just click the link in the description.

Thanks very much, and let's get back to the video.

we don't like change.

I think humans like to stay the same.

We grow up, our brain, our brain, the way it's formulated, um, is that we get specific programs put into us when we're kids,

and straying away from those kind of programs, whether it's the environment you grew up in or the relationships you've had throughout your life.

100

I think it puts the human being in a state of fight or flight.

101

That's why some people resist change or never want to change.

102

Now let's talk about cultural adaptation.

103

Why do some people adapt more easily to living abroad than others?

104

I think sometimes a person finds themselves abroad.

105

Maybe that culture fits them more as a person, as a soul.

106

I think that sometimes people find, they empathize with the people that they live with outside.

107

- Thank you.

108

When one finds that freedom and that belonging somewhere else, they start to adapt a new lifestyle and way of living.

109

What challenges do people face when adapting to a new culture?

110

One of the many challenges I think people face

111

when adapting to a new culture is sometimes there are some things about

112

that culture that will not resonate with you as a person.

113

For example, me personally, I decided to ultimately move out of America after I got my degree just

114

because there were a couple of values in that culture that personally I didn't resonate with.

115

elsewhere, somewhere elsewhere where I could feel more at home and more like everything was incoherence with me.

116

And last question in part three: How does facing challenges help people develop as individuals?

117

I think facing challenges...

118

most importantly, makes you listen to yourself more, makes you follow your gut more.

119

And I'm a personal believer that Nobody grows without pain and going through challenges.

120

I think pain is a big...

121

life teacher.

122

It's something that people have to go through in order to become a better version of themselves.

123

Well done, I'm going to give you some feedback now.

124

My feedback will be on part one and then part two, part three.

125

So we're going to talk more strategic, tactical things that you could do to ensure you get the highest score possible

126

and that people watching at home can learn from that.

127

And then we're also going to talk about your band score.

128

So pronunciation, fluency, grammar, vocabulary.

129

What would I give you?

130

How would I help you get the highest score possible?

131

So part one.

132

off our VIP course.

133

The IELTS VIP course is the most successful IELTS course in the world.

134

That is a fact because we have more about seven, eight and nine success stories than any other IELTS course in the entire world.

136

138

139

We answer a hundred percent of the questions that we get.

140

Hope that you become a VIP.

141

If not, enjoy the rest of this free video.

142

Part one, you did something that many, many people do, which is you were quite nervous in the beginning.

143

And that affected your fluency a little bit.

144

Myself as a native English speaker, if I was doing this test, the first few answers probably wouldn't be the most fluent ones because you are a little nervous in the beginning.

145

That is why in part one they don't start off with the really difficult questions, they little getting to know you questions at you,

146

but you cope pretty well after that.

147

So as you, as you went on, your answers became more fluent, and you became less nervous.

148

And a good examiner will recognize that a lot of people think that if you have one

149

bad answer that you immediately get a low score.

150

That's not how the test works.

151

The examiner will base your score on the totality of your answers.

152

For example, you gave some very short answers at the beginning or you just were like, oh, listed lots of different things.

153

The examiner knows that's just nerves based on your subsequent answers.

154

So pick the things that are easy to talk about and it's okay to have some nerves.

155

Just understand that that's part of the test.

156

to you could tell that you were thinking a lot.

157

You were trying to come up with the best ideas, I think.

158

Is that true or not?

159

So remember that it's not an ideas test.

160

It is a speaking test.

161

A lot of people think that they'll get a higher score or sound more impressive if they choose the best ideas.

162

The best ideas are the ones that are easiest for you to talk about, the simplest ideas.

163

At the beginning, your fluency wasn't bad or anything like that, but it was just that you could tell

164

that the cogs in your brain were working overtime trying to think of the correct thing.

165

And our brains are obviously connected to our speech.

166

And if our brains are overworked, just like a computer with too many tabs open, then the speech coming out will be affected sometimes.

167

It wasn't that affected.

168

But again, the examiner won't listen to the first few sentences and go, oh, terrible fluency.

169

Not that it was terrible, but a lot of people watching think that that's the case.

170

They've been taught in their school that if they don't sound fluent the entire time, that they're going to get a lower score.

171

That is not the case.

172

But overall, your part two was great, some great vocabulary, some great grammar.

173

But on test day, you might get a question that you don't feel comfortable talking about,

174

is just unusual for you that could affect your fluency

175

because unusual topic plus overthinking could lead to you just having fluency issues

176

so again my advice is pretty repetitive but you know talk about the things

177

that are easy to talk about know

178

that it's not a performance it's a conversation all right

179

so sometimes it felt like you were performing rather than talking

180

to me everybody's different some people don't like making eye contact but when you were thinking you were looking away

181

They always look up, maybe that's part of your brain that deals with ideas and you can tell they're really thinking deeply.

182

When you did that, you were thinking a lot and your fluency suffered at times.

183

You did this thing as well.

184

You did it at the start of part two

185

and you did it in part three where you think and speak at the same time and you usually repeat the question.

186

So what you do is you're like, so describe a time when you had to adapt to a new situation

187

So you're talking and thinking all at the same time and repeating the question.

188

A better way might be to just give yourself a little bit more time.

189

You don't have to answer immediately.

190

Think about it for a second or two and just say, "That's an interesting question.

191

I haven't thought about that one before." Or "That's a really good question.

192

Let me think about that for a second." And then give your answer.

193

Because some examiners might think that you're just repeating the question back at them.

194

your English is and your fluency is not great at the same time the first 10 -20 % of your answers,

195

the fluency seems to be lower than the final 80 -90 % because you're thinking what to say.

196

Does that make sense?

197

Is that helpful?

198

You probably don't even know you're doing it, it's probably just a habit.

199

And in normal life, you probably don't need to do that, but we want to make sure that you get one of the top marks.

200

Another way that you could improve, especially your part three, would be to include more examples.

201

So you talk generally about situations that happened, like when you were crying in college, or the values that you disagreed with.

202

Maybe you didn't want to say that because you don't want to be controversial, or whatever, maybe you want to not offend anyone.

203

But in the real test, the cameras are not rolling, nobody.

204

Feel free to give those real examples, because they're often easier to talk to.

205

Goodbye.

206

Another way is just to imagine you're talking to someone who doesn't know anything about what you're talking about, and you need to help them understand.

207

So using examples is just a way that human beings help.

208

It's just a communications tool.

209

Explanations are communications tools.

210

Again, nothing bad, but we want to make sure that you get one of the top marks.

211

And these are just me being overly cautious and helping the people learn at home as well.

212

So what scores would you get?

213

The best part of your performance is your pronunciation.

214

Even though you didn't grow up in an English -speaking country, you have picked up the accent.

215

You don't sound like an American per se, but you don't sound like you're from Lebanon or Iraq either.

216

No, you don't get extra marks for sounding American, but you do get extra marks for being as clear as possible.

217

And the thing about the American accent, not a lot of people know this,

218

but the reason so many people from so many different parts of the world moved to America.

219

So everybody developed this accent that is super clear.

220

So it's actually a good accent to have for communication.

221

Standard American accent.

222

Standard American accent.

223

Most people in the world will be able to understand you, whereas me, I'm Irish, not everyone understands the Irish accent.

224

So I'm not saying that...

225

Anybody watching needs to move to America or learn the American accent, but having that accent for you, it doesn't sound forced.

226

It doesn't sound like you're putting it on.

227

It sounds like that's your natural accent and it really does help communication.

228

Yeah.

229

or voices going down.

230

Like for example, when we're listing things, I like sushi and I like Italian food and I like steak and I also like Indian food.

231

So I went up and I went up and I went up and then I went down at the end.

232

That's I'm listing, I'm listing, I'm listing.

233

No, I'm done.

234

So I'm conveying meaning through tone, not through actual words.

235

And you do that very, very well.

236

So Bandai for amazing vocabulary.

237

Things that many English speakers would not be able to use.

238

One I noted down was draining a social battery.

239

I really liked that.

240

That was quite poetic.

241

The reason why that is so good is that you used fewer words to explain something quite complicated.

242

Draining of a social battery, what does that actually mean?

243

It means that you are maybe an introverted person, that when you're around other people, you have less energy.

244

You like and that boosts your energy a little bit.

245

That took me, what, three or four sentences to explain that.

246

Or I can just say something like, "It drains my social battery." So it is very precise, and very economical, and elegant.

247

And you had lots of examples of that, like this.

248

For vocabulary, you would definitely get a band 9.

249

Grammar, you do make some little tiny slips like this.

250

That is totally normal, even for native English speakers.

251

A lot of people think that if you make one tiny little grammatical error, you're going to get a band 5 or band 6 or something like that.

252

That is not true because even as an educated native English speaker who teaches English for a living, I make little grammatical errors.

253

Every English speaker does.

254

errors and in the marking criteria it actually says for band 9 makes slips very infrequently.

255

That's exactly you.

256

You do make tiny little errors but very infrequently.

257

So you would get a band 9 for grammar.

258

Your weakest area is your fluency.

259

This is related to the things that we talked about at the beginning which is being nervous at the start.

260

So there were We would call them audible pauses,

261

or fillers, like, you know, kind of.

262

Again even high level native English speakers use those little words when we're nervous.

263

I'm doing it right now.

264

So don't worry too much about it.

265

But for the purposes of an IELTS test, the less nervous that you are, the better your fluency is going to be.

266

Also, you have that issue of when you're thinking, it slows down the pace that you're speaking at.

267

And you also have more of those audible pauses.

268

Nerves can be solved quite easily through preparation.

269

So doing stuff going into the real test because you've been there,

270

done that, I've practiced so much.

271

So it's going to be a walk in the park for you.

272

And the other thing is try less to perform and more conversation.

273

I know it's difficult, not every examiner is someone that you would consider a friend, but you know for 15 minutes pretend you're talking to a friend in a coffee shop.

274

Literally picture that friend or that family member and they're asking you these questions.

275

And I think that will really, really help your fluency.

276

Coherence is fine, you're answering every question, you're developing them enough.

277

I think examples could also help with that.

278

Just pick really, really simple things.

279

There's nothing in the marking criteria that talks about levels of idea ideas.

280

You don't get extra marks for good ideas.

281

You get extra marks for pronunciation, fluency, grammar, vocabulary.

282

So everything that you do, all the advice that I'm giving you is designed to help those things.

283

And for someone like you at a very, very high level, it is more important that we simplify your ideas,

284

because you're not thinking about English. so much.

285

You're thinking about how do I give them the best answer, the best idea, and that can actually hinder your fluency.

286

So that would be, but overall I think you would get about nine, but on a bad day, you know, let's say you didn't sleep the night before

287

and you didn't get a good breakfast and you're late

288

and then you get a question that you're not happy with and you try to overperform, that could drop you down.

289

But I don't think it's going to happen, but well done.

290

Thank you.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
