This is Day 1 of Improve Your IELTS Speaking in 30 Days.

In this series, you'll practice IELTS speaking through mock tests, shadowing practice, and vocabulary review.

First, listen to the sample answers.

Then, complete the shadowing practice.

Finally, we'll review some useful vocabulary and expressions from today's practice.

When you finish, try to answer the questions on your own.

The more you practice speaking, the more confident you'll become.

Let's get started. Where is your hometown?

My hometown is a medium-sized city in the western part of my country.

It's known for its friendly atmosphere, local markets, and beautiful rivers.

I've lived there for most of my life, so it feels very familiar and comfortable to me.

What do you like most about living there?

What I like most is the sense of community.

People are generally friendly and willing to help each other.

I also enjoy the slower pace of life compared to larger cities, which makes it less stressful and more enjoyable to live there.

How has your hometown changed in recent years?

It has changed quite a lot.

There are more shopping centers, restaurants, and modern buildings than before.

Public facilities have also improved, especially transportation and recreational areas.

Although the city has become busier, I think these changes have made life more convenient for residents.

Would you recommend your hometown to tourists?

Yes, definitely.

It may not be as famous as some major tourist destinations, but it offers visitors an authentic local experience.

Tourists can enjoy traditional food, learn about the local culture, and explore beautiful natural attractions nearby. Do you enjoy reading?

Yes, I do.

Reading is one of my favorite hobbies because it helps me relax and learn new things at the same time.

I usually read for about 30 minutes before going to bed.

What kind of books do you usually read?

I mostly read non-fiction books, especially those related to personal development, psychology, and education.

However, I also enjoy reading novels occasionally when I want something more entertaining and imaginative.

Do you prefer physical books or e-books?

I prefer physical books because I enjoy the feeling of holding a book and turning the pages.

It helps me focus better and reduces distractions.

That said, e-books are very convenient when I'm traveling because I can carry many books on a single device.

What do you usually do on weekends?

On weekends, I usually spend time with my family

and catch up on activities that I don't have time for during the week.

I often exercise, watch movies, read books, and sometimes meet friends for coffee.

Do you prefer busy or relaxing weekends?

I prefer relaxing weekends.

After a busy week of work or study, I like to slow down and recharge my energy.

However, I still enjoy doing a few productive activities so that I don't feel like I've wasted my time.

How have your weekends changed compared to the past?

In the past, I spent most of my weekends hanging out with friends and participating in outdoor activities.

Nowadays, I tend to focus more on personal goals, such as learning new skills, exercising, and spending quality time with my family.

I think my weekends have become more balanced and meaningful as I've gotten older.

Now it's time for the shadowing practice.

Listen carefully and repeat each answer after the pause.

Try to copy my pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation as closely as possible.

If you need more time, feel free to pause the video.

Let's begin.

My hometown is a medium-sized city in the western part of my country.

local markets, and beautiful rivers.

Great job!
