IELTS Speaking Practice

Studying My study buddy is Elizabeth. She's who I spend most time studying with. Why? Because she's in the same classes as I am, and we get on really well together. We have different strengths that complement each other. She's very creative and I'm very analytical - so we make a great team! Working I suppose that would be my friend Sophia. We are part of a cross-functional team and we have worked together on several projects. We normally collaborate several times a week on different project tasks. Why Sophia? Because the work she does is closely related to what I do, so it's natural for us to spend a lot of time working together.

Cambridge IELTS 10 Speaking Test 3 Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Cambridge 10 Sample Answers 1. Yes, I absolutely love travelling ! I love exploring new places and experiencing different cultures. I think it widens my perspective and gets me out of my comfort zone . For example last year I went to Japan and it was amazing to see how different the customs and way of life was from mine. Travelling is such a great way to learn about the world and make unforgettable memories. 2. Yes, I’ve been lucky enough to travel a lot.

How would you anser this IELTS cue card about a shop near where you live ? Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 What types of music do you like to listen to? It’s quite varied really, sometimes I like to listen to pop music and other times I like to listen to movie soundtracks or instrumental music. I guess it depends on what I’m doing or how I’m feeling, for example, if I’m feeling energetic I’ll probably listen to some high-energy music or something with a good beat to get me going. On the other hand, if I’m driving or maybe even reading I’ll listen to something more relaxing, maybe some nice instrumental music because I find it helps me concentrate. At what times of day do you like to listen to music? I usually listen to music throughout the day, on and off, but I suppose the longest period would be when I’m traveling to work because the journey is almost an hour there and another hour returning at night – and listening to music helps pass the time. Other t...
