1
Today we're going to be focusing on part one.
2
Remember, if you have a strong start to the IELTS test, I promise you your confidence will develop.
3
So part one normally lasts around four to five minutes.
4
They will ask you a number of questions, but try to aim to give answers that are not too long.
5
Don't overthink it.
6
Remember, aim for around 15 to 25 seconds per answer.
7
On some occasions, you might push that up to 30, but don't be afraid if the examiner interrupts you.
8
Team, for IELTS part one, I need you to imagine that you're having a conversation with a friend.
9
I want you to have that natural passion, enthusiasm, and intonation in your voice to be successful.
10
But let's also share a few tips.
11
Tip number one, if possible, try not to repeat the question when speaking.
12
If they ask you, do you like the gym?
13
Don't say, yes, I like the gym.
14
We can say, yes, I absolutely love visiting the gym or I'm a big fan of visiting the gym.
15
If you want to be even more natural, you can use phrases such as, well, it's a great question.
16
Yes, I've always been a big fan of hitting the gym to work out and get a body to die for.
17
Remember guys, if possible, try to paraphrase.
18
Don't repeat the question.
19
Next, always focus on topic-specific vocabulary.
20
This is really important.
21
In IELTS part one, there are so many topics they can ask you, but guys, there are certain hot topics.
22
I will tell you them now.
23
Work, study, hometown.
24
This is a good one, hometown.
25
Travel, hobbies, food and family.
26
They may also ask you about your accommodation.
27
So let's think about topic-specific vocabulary about the topic of your hometown.
28
Now as you know my hometown is London.
29
If I describe London as having good schools, friendly people and beautiful weather, it's okay but it's a little bit basic.
30
Remember, lexical resource is 25% of your mark.
31
Lexical resource just means wide range of vocabulary.
32
So team, don't just say good schools, say a world-class education system.
33
It's really nice.
34
Next, don't just say that your hometown has lots of foreigners, say that it's multicultural.
35
I love that word.
36
Finally, don't say, oh there are lots of good jobs.
37
You can say there are lots of prestigious jobs in fantastic global companies.
38
Do you see?
39
I'm not asking you to prepare thousands of words and use them unnaturally,
40
but try to get some topic specific vocabulary about those topics.
41
Moreover, think about grammar.
42
Now team, I will tell you now, simple with no mistakes is always better than being really advanced
43
and complicated with a huge amount of grammar structures and using them incorrect.
44
So focus on making sure that your grammar is perfect.
45
One thing I will tell you to be aware of, first is your tenses, especially the past tense.
46
Make sure that you're confident with using that.
47
Moreover, and here's a little secret, a really fantastic grammar structure you can use is which is important because?
48
The important we can change to significant or special or wonderful or vital but this is a great structure.
49
So if you say my hometown is a thriving metropolis that is very
50
multicultural which is important because I can practice my English with handsome foreigners.
51
Another one you can say Ho Chi Minh has lots of prestigious job opportunities
52
which is vital because people can earn a high salary and have a better quality of life.
53
I love that.
54
If you want to talk about something being negative you can say which leads to Ho Chi Minh is very overcrowded,
55
which leads to a very high cost of living, especially property prices.
56
Secret grammar structures you can use.
57
My next piece of advice is try not to list.
58
If they ask you in the IELTS exam, who do you live with?
59
A lot of students will be very nervous and say, oh, I live with my mum, my dad, my brother, my sister, my grandma, my granddad, my uncle, my auntie.
60
If possible, try to use adjectives.
61
I stay with my handsome dad, my stunning mum, and my cute wife.
62
The people I love most in the world.
63
We're using adjectives.
64
If they ask you about your house, don't just say, I have a bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen, a dining room.
65
You can say no. Instead use phrases.
66
Oh, I have a luxury kitchen where I love to cook for my stunning family.
67
Or, I have a spacious master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom
68
which is very comfortable it's beautiful moreover I have a balcony
69
with a breathtaking view of the vibrant city of Ho Chi Minh City next tip try to remember don't list okay?
70
Trying to speak in a really natural way.
71
Next guys, one thing that students often ask me is can I give negative answers?
72
And the answer to that is absolutely yes.
73
Not everything has to be wonderful or amazing or fantastic.
74
So if they ask you is there anything you dislike about your school?
75
You can be honest.
76
I would avoid using the word hate.
77
Oh I really hated my teachers hate's a little bit strong.
78
Better to say hmm I was not really keen on or I was not a big fan of something.
79
That's a great one.
80
Remember guys in part one you're just talking to a friend yeah.
81
Smile.
82
You can be honest.
83
Tell the truth okay.
84
For me I would say hmm to be honest I was
85
not a big fan of the heavy workload due to the fact that it made me feel exhausted every day.
86
Great tip guys, don't be scared to be negative sometimes.
87
Next, and this is a top tip, please do not forget about the power of examples.
88
In part one remember you can talk about yourself, your family, your friends.
89
There are two great ways to give examples and I want to show them to you now.
90
The first way is just to say for example last year
91
or last week or last month then we can say in order to as well as.
92
Second one is to say I can vividly remember
93
when I was a child when I was younger and then tell a mini story.
94
Let's look at a question now the question do you like to travel?
95
Now you don't always have to say yes you can say absolutely.
96
Absolutely I love nothing more than getting away from it all,
97
not only because I can learn about new cultures but also I can try new mouth-watering cuisine. For example,
98
last year I travelled to the majestic mountains of Dalat in
99
order to try the delicious coffee as well as take photos of the breathtaking views.
100
Do you see?
101
I've given an example.
102
I've supported my idea.
103
The next way is to use the second technique.
104
Let's say they ask you, do you like street markets?
105
I would say yes, absolutely.
106
I can vividly remember when I was younger, I visited street markets with my stunning grandma.
107
We always used to go to Bunham market and I remember once she even bought me a Louis Vuitton handbag. Do you see?
108
Two great ways to give examples in part one.
109
I love that.
110
Always impresses the examiner.
111
Team, can I share with you a secret that high-level students use?
112
A really beautiful technique is to compare the past to the present.
113
This is excellent.
114
So, you can say in the past, but now.
115
Here's an example.
116
Well, Charles, what is your favorite subject?
117
Well, in the past I absolutely loved maths because it taught me critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
118
But now I'm a big fan of English
119
because in the future I dream of traveling around the world and exploring new cultures.
120
For example, I would love to visit King Charles and enjoy drinking a cup of tea with him in the royal palace.
121
Team, you notice I'm combining the new strategy in the past,
122
now and even a little bit in the future and I'm showing my sense of humour.
123
I want to have tea with King Charles, is that realistic?
124
No, but I'm showing my sense of humour just like a native.
125
If you can make the examiner laugh in the IELTS test.
126
You will be a one in a million.
127
So I encourage you to do this.
128
Don't be afraid.
129
Remember, examiners are humans too.
130
Okay guys, so we're getting to the end now.
131
The biggest thing that I want to encourage you to do is in the IELTS test, smile.
132
Don't forget to smile.
133
It's really important, not only because it helps with your pronunciation, but also because it shows your confidence.
134
Please look smart in the test, make eye contact with the examiner and have fun because when you have fun your intonation,
135
the rise and fall of your voice will always make you sound more natural.
136
Thank you for watching guys.

如何用这段视频练习

  1. 先完整听一遍视频,不要开口,记下不认识的单词。
  2. 用正常速度逐句跟读,每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
  3. 录下自己的声音并与原声对比,特别注意 topic, hometown, grammar 这类单词。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
