1
In the IELTS speaking test, you are guaranteed to be asked about either your home,
2
your hometown, your neighborhood, your job, or if you study, your studies.
3
So as a result it's a very good idea to learn useful vocabulary and practice questions related to these common topics.
4
Let's think about how you would describe your home.
5
I want to show you some vocabulary that students have used with me
6
when I've been examining them that has impressed me immensely.
7
One student described their home as being "cozy" which means "small and warm".
8
Another student described their home as being "neat and tidy", a great collocation that means "well organised".
9
Another student said their apartment was "modern".
10
Another person said "spacious" which means "big".
11
Another person said "light" which means there's lots of natural light coming into their apartment.
12
student in Shanghai and they said "I live in a typical Chinese apartment" and then they explained what that is.
13
A typical Chinese apartment or you could say a typical Mongolian yurt or a typical Scottish tenement building.
14
This is a great phrase to use in your IELTS test when describing your
15
to describe where you live now i want to show you some useful phrases as well you could say
16
It has great views overlooking the main street, which means from your window you can see the main street below.
17
What I like best is the proximity to the beach.
18
I live really close to the beach.
19
One thing I don't like is that my apartment is very cold in the winter.
20
I've been living here for two years.
21
I've been living here since I moved to Scotland.
22
So we say living here for and then a duration or since and then a moment in time.
23
So look at these sentences and make them true for you.
24
Do you live in a house or a flat?
25
I live in an old apartment on the outskirts of Edinburgh.
26
I've been living there for the last two years.
27
What's your favourite room in your apartment?
28
I'd say the living room.
29
It's a large room and I've got a massive and very comfy sofa.
30
Plus, a couple of weeks ago I bought a projector, so it's great for getting cosy and watching movies.
31
Is there anything you would like to change about your home?
32
Interesting question.
33
I wish my flat were better insulated.
34
It's fine in the summer, but in the winter my flat gets incredibly cold.
35
Actually a lot of flats in Edinburgh have this problem,
36
as they have high ceilings that look beautiful but can make it very cold in the winter.
37
Another common topic is to describe your hometown.
38
Here's some useful vocabulary.
39
You could say that your city or your town is a dynamic city, which means it's constantly changing.
40
I used to live in Shanghai in China, and Shanghai is a very dynamic city.
41
It's always moving, people are coming and going, and there's lots of activities.
42
Perhaps your city is bustling, bustling with people, which means it's very busy.
43
and lots of movement.
44
Perhaps you live in a historic town.
45
At the moment, I live in Scotland, in Edinburgh, and Edinburgh is a very historic city.
46
Perhaps your city is lively.
47
Lots of activities going on all the time.
48
Lots of concerts, lots of people, lots of exhibitions.
49
Perhaps your city is touristy, which means lots of tourists come.
50
Barcelona is a very touristy city.
51
Perhaps your city is densely populated, a very good collocation which means there are lots of people in a small space,
52
a densely populated city.
53
Or perhaps your city is very peaceful and very tranquil and relaxing.
54
Or even, picturesque, maybe you have beautiful views of the mountains around you.
55
So here's some phrases that you could use for describing your hometown: One thing I like is...
56
One thing I like about my hometown is that it's a very old and beautiful city.
57
My city is famous for...
58
My city is famous for having a large castle in the center.
59
I wonder if you know which city it is.
60
I've been living here, again, I've been living here for two years.
61
But one thing I would love to change is that the public transport system is so bad.
62
Look at these sentences and try and make them true for you.
63
By doing this now you'll be better prepared for your IELTS speaking test.
64
Is your hometown a big city or small town?
65
Well, I was born in London be my hometown because my family moved there when I was so young.
66
As you might know, Edinburgh is a very beautiful old city,
67
and what makes it particularly special is that it's built around a large castle in the centre.
68
What kind of buildings are there in your hometown?
69
Well, in general the buildings in Edinburgh are very old.
70
A lot of the apartment buildings were built in the 19th century, so the city has a real old feel about it.
71
Plus, of course, there's the castle in the centre of Edinburgh, which I think was built around the 10th or 11th century.
72
Is there anything you dislike about your hometown?
73
Well, one thing I don't like is the public transport system.
74
In Edinburgh, we don't have a metro or underground or anything like that, so we rely on buses to get around the city.
75
rush hour can be awful, so it takes a long time to travel across the city by bus.
76
How would you describe your neighborhood?
77
Would you use vocabulary like this?
78
Is it quiet?
79
Is it safe?
80
Maybe it's close -knit, which means everybody knows each other.
81
It's very local and people know each other.
82
It's a close -knit community.
83
Perhaps it's residential, so there's not that many shops, but there's lots of people living there.
84
Or maybe it's noisy. or busy.
85
Perhaps it's close to the beach or close to the city centre.
86
Perhaps your hometown or your neighbourhood is conveniently located.
87
Which means it's very easy to get to the city centre or to shops.
88
So again, think of some vocabulary to describe your neighbourhood.
89
Here's some sentence starters you can use.
90
It's full of.
91
It's full of young families.
92
It suits me because...
93
It suits me because it's a neighborhood with a very relaxed atmosphere.
94
I wish it were or I wish it had.
95
So we use I wish and then the past simple.
96
I wish it had more shops.
97
There's not that many shops.
98
If I want to go shopping, I have to go to the city center.
99
One thing that gets on my nerves is...
100
One thing that gets on my nerves is...
101
There's always road is a good place for young people to live.
102
Actually, I say my neighborhood is very good for young families or old people, but maybe not the best for teenagers or uni students.
103
Where I live in Edinburgh is incredibly relaxing and it's next to the sea.
104
It's very local and has a slow pace of life that I personally love.
105
But I think it could be kind of boring for teenagers or young adults, much to do when compared to the city centre.
106
Do you know any of your neighbours?
107
I do.
108
I live in a block of flats and we all share a garden, so over the years I've met more or less all of them.
109
To be honest, most of them keep themselves to themselves, but occasionally I'll be in the garden
110
and one of them will come down to hang up their washing and we'll chat for a little while.
111
They all seem very friendly.
112
Would you like to live in a different neighbourhood in the future?
113
Well, I don't have any plans to move in the foreseeable future.
114
I don't think I'll live in this area for my entire life, but for now I like my neighbourhood as it's relaxing and close to the beach.
115
I'd only really move neighborhood if I bought a flat somewhere or if I had to move for some unexpected reason.
116
If you work, you need some vocabulary to describe your job.
117
In fact, you even need some vocabulary to describe your manager your place of work, your colleagues, the industry that you work in.
118
So let's think about some vocabulary that could help you to describe different aspects of your job.
119
Perhaps your job is rewarding.
120
For example, if you're a teacher, being a teacher is a very rewarding job.
121
Maybe you've got a flexible job.
122
You can work in the mornings, you can work in the evenings, But you don't have many deadlines.
123
Maybe it's a flexible job.
124
Perhaps you've got a creative job, like being an editor or a designer.
125
Or a well -paid job, hopefully.
126
Or maybe your job is monotonous.
127
Monotonous.
128
This means that your job is boring and you do the same thing every day.
129
Or perhaps your job is stressful.
130
You've got lots of deadlines that are difficult to meet. Or demanding.
131
Again, relating to those deadlines.
132
Maybe you've got a demanding manager.
133
Or perhaps, the worst of all, your job is poorly paid.
134
You don't get very much money.
135
Do you work or study?
136
I work.
137
I'm an English teacher specialising in IELTS preparation.
138
How long have you been doing this job?
139
Well, a long time actually.
140
I started teaching English in Spain in 2013.
141
I've been specialising in IELTS since around 2016.
142
At first I was working as an IELTS examiner, but now I help students through making video tutorials and online lessons.
143
What skills are important in your work?
144
Good question.
145
I'd say there are a mixture of hard and soft skills that are important to have.
146
In terms of hard skills, I'd say that it's important to be pretty tech savvy, as I have to do a lot of video editing, making quizzes, and updating my website.
147
And as for the soft skills, I'd say that good communication skills and problem -solving abilities are important.
148
Now, if you're a student, whether you're in high school or in university, you need some vocabulary to describe your studies.
149
So I would think of vocabulary to describe your classes, your teacher, your peers, which means the other people that you study with.
150
If you're in university, some vocabulary to describe your university.
151
Or if you're in high school, some vocabulary to describe your high school.
152
You could say things like, I've got enthusiastic peers or enthusiastic teachers, which means they bring a lot of motivation.
153
Or maybe your classes are fascinating.
154
You're really interested in what you're learning.
155
dynamic classes, which means the teachers are very good at making the subject very interesting.
156
Maybe they are motivational.
157
They get you enthusiastic and motivated about the topic you're learning.
158
Or perhaps you've got challenging classes and challenging amounts of homework.
159
Or demanding teachers that always set you lots of homework and deadlines to hand in essays.
160
Or perhaps you've got a supportive teacher that really wants to help you.
161
Or maybe again your classes are monotonous, dull and boring.
162
Do you work or study?
163
I study.
164
I'm doing a master's in machine learning.
165
Why did you choose these studies?
166
Well, I've always been good at maths and I've heard that graduates with a machine learning degree can earn a good salary, so I thought I'd go for it.
167
Is there anything you would like to change about your studies?
168
like they've prepared in advance for the lessons.
169
They often just arrive and read from the textbook instead of having a lesson already planned.
170
I want to set you a challenge before you go.
171
How would you describe your home?
172
your hometown, your neighborhood, your studies, and your job.
173
Now your challenge is to do this in your own language
174
and then to translate it into English so
175
that you can find the vocabulary that you would use to describe these different parts of your life.
176
And if you're feeling extra motivated, here's a second challenge.
177
What would you like to change about your home, your hometown, your neighborhood, your studies, and your job?
178
The more that you think about these questions now, the better prepared you to do you're going to be in your IELTS test.
179
Best of luck and I'll see you in the next lesson.
180
Bye.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
