Takeaways

  • 😀 Введение в 6-серийное видео о подготовке ко 2-й части IELTS Speaking.
  • 📊 2-я часть IELTS Speaking важна, так как экзаменатор оценивает вашу способность говорить длинными предложениями, поддерживать произношение и избегать ошибок.
  • 🧐 Экзаменатор в начале 2-й части уже предполагает ваш уровень между двумя баллами и использует эту часть, чтобы окончательно определиться.
  • 📝 Простой подход к подготовке ко 2-й части делит вопросы на пять категорий: люди, места, события, активности и вещи.
  • 👥 Вопросы о людях можно структурировать, рассказывая, кто это, как вы их знаете и описывая их личность или внешность.
  • 🌍 Описывая места, используйте сложные предложения, такие как 'можно найти' вместо простого 'расположено'.
  • 🎉 Вопросы о событиях предполагают описание фона и обстоятельств, что позволяет использовать более сложные языковые конструкции.
  • 🎸 Описание активностей требует объяснения процесса и возможных трудностей, что позволяет использовать идиоматические выражения.

  • 🕐 При подготовке ко 2-й части используйте минуту на планирование структуры ответа, придерживайтесь темы и не запоминайте весь текст.

Q & A

  • Почему часть 2 экзамена IELTS Speaking считается важной?

    -Часть 2 важна, потому что в это время экзаменатор может расслабиться и внимательно слушать, как кандидат говорит на более длинные предложения, оценивая их уровень беглости, произношения, а также ошибок в грамматике и лексике. Именно на основе этой части экзаменатор принимает ключевые решения о вашем уровне.

  • Какую роль играет экзаменатор в части 2 IELTS Speaking?

    -Экзаменатор в части 2 уже решил ваш уровень между двумя баллами (например, 5 или 6, 6 или 7). В конце части 2 экзаменатор определяет, к какому из этих двух баллов вы ближе.

  • Какие категории тем рекомендуется использовать для подготовки к части 2?

    -Рекомендуется использовать пять категорий: люди, места, события, занятия и вещи. Каждая категория помогает структурировать вашу речь и использовать более сложный язык.

  • Как можно улучшить свои ответы в категории 'люди'?

    -Для улучшения ответов в категории 'люди', вы можете говорить о том, кто этот человек, как вы его знаете, описать его личность или внешность, использовать сложные времена и идиомы, такие как 'I've known John for donkey's years'.

  • Как разнообразить описание мест в IELTS Speaking?

    -Вы можете разнообразить описание мест, используя сложные структуры предложений, такие как 'It can be found', 'It's hidden away', а также добавляя детали о расположении и ощущениях от этого места.

  • Какие языковые средства помогут описывать события?

    -При описании событий полезно использовать условные конструкции и выражения сожаления, такие как 'If I had known', 'I wish I had known', а также использовать разные времена, чтобы делать вашу речь более сложной.

  • Как готовиться к части 2, чтобы улучшить свои навыки?

    -Для подготовки важно исследовать вопросы, практиковаться в записи себя на диктофон, анализировать свою беглость и ошибки, а также привыкать к двум минутам непрерывной речи.

  • Почему важно оставаться в рамках темы при ответе на вопрос?

    -Если вы отклоняетесь от темы, это негативно скажется на вашей оценке по лексике, и экзаменатор может прервать вас, если сочтет, что вы выучили речь наизусть.

  • Какие стратегии помогут лучше справиться с волнением во время части 2?

    -Перед тем как начать говорить, важно сделать глубокий вдох, взять небольшую паузу, а затем начать говорить, сохраняя контроль над ситуацией и временем.

  • Как можно использовать визуализацию для улучшения выступления в части 2?

    -Визуализируя то, о чем вы говорите (например, представив отпуск на пляже), вы можете улучшить свою динамику и энергетику при выступлении, что положительно скажется на вашем результате.

play00:00

hello my friend its Keith from IELTS

play00:02

speaking success here to give you the

play00:05

skills and confidence you need for the

play00:07

IELTS speaking test

play00:09

I'm really excited actually because I'm

play00:11

beginning here a six-part video series

play00:15

all about part 2 of the IELTS speaking

play00:18

now part 2 is the part of the test where

play00:22

I see so many candidates make mistakes

play00:25

lose their confidence and it's all

play00:27

downhill after that

play00:29

that doesn't have to happen so I want to

play00:34

give you a really simple framework that

play00:37

will help you master part two so you get

play00:40

the score you need let's get straight

play00:43

into it

play00:44

[Music]

play00:49

so in this first video which is the

play00:52

first of six I'll give you an overview

play00:54

of this framework that will help you

play00:56

master part 2 of the IELTS speaking test

play00:59

now then what I will look at I'll

play01:02

explain why part 2 is really important I

play01:05

will then take you into the head of the

play01:08

examiner so you can see what they're

play01:10

thinking that this part and then I'll

play01:13

give you this very simple framework

play01:15

approach and today I'll be looking at

play01:18

some questions from the recent questions

play01:22

from 2019 and then at the end of the

play01:25

video some tips on how you can Excel or

play01:29

do really well in the part 2 and then of

play01:33

course keep your eyes open for the next

play01:36

five videos okay so why is part two so

play01:42

important well because in part two it's

play01:46

the first time that the examiner really

play01:49

sits back and really listens to you they

play01:54

don't have to start thinking of the next

play01:55

question

play01:56

they just relax and they're going to be

play01:59

listening to see whether you can speak

play02:03

in longer sentences can you maintain

play02:06

your pronunciation over longer sentences

play02:09

can you develop topics all of this is

play02:13

important for fluency as well as

play02:15

pronunciation but also they will notice

play02:19

if you hesitate or if you make lots of

play02:24

mistakes mistakes in vocabulary or in

play02:28

grammar so it really is it's a key part

play02:31

of the test also now let me tell you

play02:35

what the examiner is usually thinking by

play02:38

the time you get to part 2 the examiner

play02:43

will have decided your level between two

play02:48

bands so they'll be thinking you're

play02:51

either a five or a six or you're a six

play02:55

or a seven but they will have you

play02:58

between two bands that's at the start of

play03:01

part two

play03:02

at the end of Part two you should be

play03:05

they will have decided which one you are

play03:07

you're a five or a six or you're a seven

play03:11

or an eight and then part three is used

play03:15

to validate and confirm that so if I

play03:19

think at the beginning of part two

play03:21

you're a five or a six and at the end of

play03:24

Part two you're a six in part three I'm

play03:28

then thinking let's confirm there are

play03:30

six is that true or actually are there a

play03:33

five or is it possible in some cases you

play03:37

may jump up to a seven but that's

play03:40

unusual you will normally stay within

play03:43

that those two bands that they had at

play03:45

the start of part two so part two is

play03:49

really important to help the examiner

play03:51

decide which level you are it's not the

play03:56

final score of course remember that the

play03:59

aisle speaking is across all three parts

play04:02

but part two is the crux is where some

play04:05

key decisions are made let's now have a

play04:10

look at the framework approach now my

play04:15

idea here is not completely original I

play04:18

know quite a few schools and trainers

play04:21

think of this and follow this idea and

play04:23

basically it's to break down part two

play04:26

into five categories but what's

play04:29

different in these videos is I'm going

play04:31

to show you a structure for each one and

play04:34

the kind of language that can really

play04:37

make you stand out and put you up at a

play04:40

high band 7 or band 8 level each video

play04:44

will look at one different category

play04:46

today I'll have a an overview of all

play04:49

five and the categories are people

play04:53

places events activities and things okay

play05:01

so let me look first at people so a

play05:07

recent question was described a teenager

play05:09

that you know well that's a person it's

play05:12

about people and when we're talking

play05:14

about people I think we can

play05:16

talk about who they are how you know

play05:19

them and you can describe them you can

play05:23

describe their personality or their

play05:26

appearance depending on the question and

play05:29

I think these three you can normally

play05:32

always refer to for example when we talk

play05:37

about how you know them some of the kind

play05:40

of language might be well I first met

play05:43

John two years ago but notice how we can

play05:48

make that a bit more complex I've known

play05:51

John for donkey's years I have known

play05:56

John present perfect to more complex

play05:59

tense for donkey's years

play06:01

a nice little idiom thrown in there I've

play06:04

known John for donkey's years with

play06:08

leveling up the language of in here or

play06:11

you can use a more idiomatic expression

play06:14

we go back a long time we go back a long

play06:18

time means we've known each other for a

play06:20

long time so this is just a sample of

play06:24

the kind of language we're looking at I

play06:26

will look at this in a lot more depth in

play06:28

the next video now places for example an

play06:33

open-air market you enjoyed visiting

play06:36

so with places you can talk about where

play06:39

it is how it looks what to do there and

play06:43

maybe about how you feel about the place

play06:46

okay so for example again with with the

play06:50

language where it is instead of the

play06:53

usual it is located in where everybody

play06:58

says well it's located in London or it's

play07:02

located in the north of the city change

play07:06

it round a bit it can be found passive

play07:10

tense nice it's a little-known place

play07:15

that can be found you can build your

play07:18

sentences it's a little-known place that

play07:20

can be found in and building more

play07:24

complex structures right or it's hidden

play07:28

away in

play07:29

so many places whether they're

play07:31

restaurants or cinemas or bars maybe

play07:34

they are hidden away in a little caught

play07:37

in a little corner so think about the

play07:42

language and the complexity about that

play07:46

let's look at events events are well

play07:50

things that happen so typically describe

play07:53

a time when something happened maybe a

play07:57

time you received bad service or maybe a

play08:00

time where somebody didn't tell the

play08:02

truth so these are events and I think

play08:05

with events it's really good to talk

play08:07

about this setting so the setting is we

play08:11

often call the backdrop or the

play08:14

background so it's where it is and what

play08:17

was happening then

play08:18

so not just where but what was happening

play08:21

at that time so the setting where and

play08:25

how something occurred that people would

play08:29

be great to talk about right and also

play08:31

how it happened or what happened at that

play08:36

time

play08:37

so here obviously you received bad

play08:39

service you'll be talking about that

play08:42

language-wise well when it happened

play08:45

again we can be thinking about the tense

play08:49

here I was doing bla bla bla

play08:52

when bla bla bla happened so it's good

play08:57

language but also you can start using

play09:00

the if clauses if this happened today I

play09:04

would do this conditionals it's more

play09:08

complex or even express a regret if I

play09:12

had known I wouldn't have or I wish I

play09:16

had known and can you see how you're

play09:19

getting more complex language just

play09:22

talking about the what happened there

play09:25

and think about the different tenses

play09:27

that you can use I will go into a lot

play09:30

more detail in the coming video on this

play09:33

we also have activities for example an

play09:37

activity you do when you are alone

play09:40

maybe it's reading a book maybe explain

play09:42

the guitar

play09:43

maybe it's cooking that's what I do of

play09:46

course you can talk about what you do

play09:49

how to do it so most activities you can

play09:53

explain how to do it how do you cook how

play09:57

do you read a book maybe not but if it's

play10:00

a sport or a game or a skill some kind

play10:02

of activity you do you can explain how

play10:05

to do it and talk about the challenges

play10:08

because that will start bringing out

play10:10

richer and better language you can see

play10:13

my thought process right

play10:15

my focus is always pushing up more

play10:18

complex language looking for

play10:20

opportunities for that right if you're

play10:24

describing how to do it there are lots

play10:26

of nice little idiomatic expressions you

play10:29

can throw in it's a piece of cake it's

play10:32

easy right anyone with a shred of common

play10:36

sense can do it a shred is just a bit a

play10:39

bit of common sense anyone with a shred

play10:43

of common sense can do it or even it's

play10:46

not rocket science

play10:48

so idiomatic expressions also nice for

play10:52

building up your language and vocabulary

play10:55

finally things for example something

play10:59

lost by others but found by you so

play11:03

things I think you obviously you can

play11:05

talk about what it is you can talk about

play11:09

how you've got it so maybe you found it

play11:12

you borrowed it you were given it it was

play11:14

a present that you can be talking about

play11:17

and a description so describing what it

play11:21

looks like and that's where lots of nice

play11:23

language comes out right for example

play11:26

it's reddish or bluish or greenish so if

play11:31

you're describing the color but not

play11:33

exactly that color but a kind of blue

play11:37

it's bluish

play11:39

the shape square-shaped its round shape

play11:43

towards pear-shaped so the language

play11:47

again can be interesting or if it's a

play11:50

technology item things like it's

play11:53

state-of-the-art it's high-tech or it's

play11:56

cutting-edge so you can build up some

play11:59

really nice vocabulary when you're

play12:02

describing things so this is an overview

play12:05

of the five different categories that we

play12:09

can use here for the part two questions

play12:12

now I'm just going to flash at you some

play12:16

of the recent questions and these are

play12:20

2019 have a quick look and see if you

play12:24

can put them into the different

play12:25

categories can you see which ones are

play12:34

about places yeah describe a place where

play12:40

you read and write can you see which

play12:46

ones are about people and things and

play12:49

events now if you're not sure then

play12:55

that's perfectly fine because actually

play12:58

several questions could be different

play13:02

categories and it doesn't really matter

play13:04

some of them could be a thing and an

play13:07

event okay some of them could be an

play13:11

activity or an event it's all is not

play13:14

always crystal clear for example

play13:18

describe a unique holiday you took you

play13:21

could think of a holiday as a thing or

play13:24

it's more maybe an event for me if it's

play13:28

a one-off holiday it's an event if it's

play13:31

a regular holiday you take maybe that's

play13:33

an activity so it's not important to put

play13:38

them in the box but just to use the

play13:42

boxes to help you just choose one and

play13:45

help that structure and help you find

play13:49

the language you need okay

play13:52

let me move on to give you some tips for

play13:54

part two now I talked a lot about part

play13:58

two tips in other videos so I'm not

play14:00

going into a lot of detail but just some

play14:03

quick tips some quick wins that may help

play14:06

you

play14:06

first of all make good use of the one

play14:10

minute preparation and for me I think

play14:13

it's really important to use that minute

play14:15

to get an idea

play14:17

don't be thinking about two or three

play14:20

ideas which one's the best the first one

play14:23

you get that is okay not perfect but

play14:28

okay go with it stick with it and then

play14:31

move on to getting a structure think

play14:34

about now what's the structure because

play14:37

that minute it's gonna disappear in a

play14:40

minute obviously so you need to use that

play14:43

time well next in the preparation I mean

play14:48

at home research the questions and you

play14:51

can find the recent questions actually

play14:54

on many websites I also have a list on

play14:56

my website and think about that things

play15:00

you could talk about start thinking

play15:02

about the ideas next practice recording

play15:06

yourself it's really good because two

play15:09

things one you get used to speaking for

play15:12

two minutes if you're recording yourself

play15:15

and timing yourself secondly you can

play15:19

listen back and you can evaluate several

play15:22

things you can evaluate fluency are you

play15:27

hesitating

play15:30

you can even count how many times you

play15:33

burn maybe you can't spot all the

play15:36

mistakes but you can see if you're

play15:38

developing your topic if you're

play15:41

hesitating if there are big mistakes in

play15:45

grammar you can usually notice when you

play15:48

listen back so record yourself in the

play15:52

actual test take your time so in part to

play15:57

a lot of candidates rush into it and

play16:00

grab a little bit and before you know it

play16:03

they fallen over they're nervous

play16:06

it becomes messy so at the start of part

play16:09

two breathe take a second and then start

play16:15

talking I'm going to tell you a time

play16:19

when so being control of that space and

play16:23

that time the first second or two makes

play16:27

a big difference my next tip is to stay

play16:32

on topic

play16:33

you must stay on topic and talk about

play16:36

the topic or the area if it's about

play16:39

holidays talk about holidays if it's

play16:41

about TV make sure you talk about TV so

play16:44

stay on topic otherwise you will be

play16:47

penalized

play16:48

especially in your vocabulary it will

play16:50

come right down because the examiner

play16:53

will see your vocabulary as off topic

play16:55

not relevant boom it'll come right down

play16:58

and that'll affect your score also the

play17:02

examiners have to let you speak the one

play17:04

minute in part two but after that if

play17:08

somebody is off topic or memorizing a

play17:11

speech the examiner will cut them off

play17:14

can cut them off and ask that follow-up

play17:17

question so just stay on topic I also

play17:22

find it's really good to try and

play17:24

visualize what you're talking about so

play17:26

if you're talking about a holiday get

play17:29

the holiday in your mind the beach to

play17:32

see the mountain and try and project

play17:36

that image in your mind it will really

play17:38

help your energy your dynamics when

play17:41

you're talking makes a big difference

play17:44

next one I'm just checking my notes is

play17:47

to imagine you're telling an anecdote an

play17:50

anecdote is a short personal story so I

play17:55

don't mean you have to tell a story but

play17:57

an anecdote is something you tell a

play17:59

friend right last week I was I went

play18:03

round to my grandmother's she's quite

play18:06

old so I had to help her carry the the

play18:08

shopping up the stairs

play18:10

that's it that's an anecdote but what it

play18:14

is is I'm not answering a question kind

play18:18

of in what we call exam mode to the

play18:20

examiner it's like I'm talking to a

play18:23

friend and I'm telling you a story

play18:25

something that happened to me when I met

play18:28

my grandmother so try and give that

play18:31

feeling it can imagine you're telling an

play18:33

anecdote okay it's a short story to a

play18:36

friend finally do not memorize your

play18:39

whole speech for the reasons I said

play18:42

above if you memorize your speech your

play18:44

vocabulary school will come down

play18:46

examiner willing to RuPt you after a

play18:49

minute and you will have lost your two

play18:52

minutes because you'll have only spoken

play18:53

for one minute so don't memorize the

play18:56

whole speech those are my top tips and

play19:01

that is an overview of the framework the

play19:05

five categories you can use to help you

play19:08

kind of structure your talk and to start

play19:11

thinking about especially the language

play19:14

that you're going to use okay so people

play19:16

places events activities and things keep

play19:21

your eyes open for the next videos over

play19:24

the coming weeks each one will focus on

play19:26

a particular category and I'll be

play19:29

helping you with structure and language

play19:31

so it's a nice framework with some nice

play19:34

language templates for you so keep your

play19:38

eyes open that's it for today if you

play19:41

play19:48
