planning-a-trip Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun
Sample Answer

I have a lot of friends that are into different fields of career. We sit together every now and then to share our experiences of our lives and the things we do. Every other time or so, someone or the other has an exciting story to share about something interesting that they did. I love listening to such experiences and stories that they share. This is because I get to know about and learn a lot of new things.

In addition, I also get new ideas for a hobby, a vacation, or any other new thing to try out during my leisure time. I have a friend who recently came back from a trip to a hill station in the Himalayan Mountains. His trip was very exciting and adventurous, and even while listening to his story, I started to plan my own trip to the place. He stayed there and enjoyed many adventure sports such as rock climbing, river rafting, trekking in the woods, but the main and probably the most enjoyable activity was paragliding.

I have seen paragliding in many movies, and I really wish to do it and experience the feeling of flying in the sky like a bird. Even though I have not done it, but I still know that it must be a very mesmerizing experience. Flying high in the sky, and looking down upon the land beneath brings a cherished feeling of ecstasy to every enthusiast. I have decided to plan my next vacation during the upcoming winters, and I will go to the hill station and get a hands-on experience of paragliding.

money-as-gift Best IELTS Band 7 coaching in dehradun

Sample answer

Gifting is an integral part of everyone’s lives today. This custom is widespread all around the world for a long time. It is used for expressing various emotions in a physical manner such as love, care, or gratitude. I have received a lot of beautiful gifts that have had a lot of thought put into them, from my near and dear ones. Our culture has a tradition of gifting money when you visit some relative’s place.

I keep traveling along with my parents to other cities when they have work or to attend any functions. We keep meeting different extended family relations, and they really adored me since I was a school going child. Once I went to Delhi, at my paternal uncle’s place, for a small family get-together. I and my mother stayed there for three days, and while leaving my cousin grandmother called me and along with a hug, she gave me two thousand rupees as a token of love.

I was highly humbled and touched her feet while thanking her for it. Having received money from other people in the past, I always make it a point to save it. Following the idea, I did the same there as well and gave the money to my mother to keep in her purse. After coming back home, I added it to her bank account against the F.D. in my name. This has been my idea of using the money received as a gift from the start. Personally, I feel that it is a good practice, as no matter how well you know anyone, you can never surprise them with the best-suited choice of a gift without consulting them. The money can be spent in any manner, for instance, I can spend it for a summer camp, to buy books or stationary, or simply save it for later use.

IELTS Speaking Part 3 Discussion topic: Single-Sex Schools or Co-Education schools

IELTS Speaking Part 3 Discussion topic: Single-Sex Schools or Co-Education schools

 

In many countries today, parents are able to choose to send their children to single-sex schools or co-educational schools. Some people think that children going to single-sex schools have disadvantages later in life.

 

To what extent do you agree?

Sample Answer

Parents have every right to decide the best for their children, whether it is the choice of career or the choice of their ward’s school. The question that arises here for the parents is, “Single-sex school or co-education school?”. Different people have different ideologies that sprout different perspectives. These depend upon a number of factors such as their brought-up, surroundings, individual thought processes, and many more factors. These factors motivate parents to choose either one of the given options.

Parents generally have different apprehensions regarding both types of schools. Single-sex schools present the fear of stagnating growth and personality development issues at a later stage. Co-education schools present a possibility of distracting the students with issues such as attraction to the opposite gender.

In my opinion, co-education schools are the best option for children today. Such schools are very much in sync with the general way of life, wherein, both the genders work and live in harmony. In such a situation, my question is, “why separate them in their primary learning phase?

There are many advantages to the co-education system. Students learn to respect the opposite gender, and feel no hesitation while working or living alongside. Other benefits might include more healthy competition, more lively interaction, more fruitful debates, and more organized lifestyles. I agree that there might be a few drawbacks taking place in singled out cases, but these involve other factors as well.

But at the end of the day, my opinion would be in favour of co-educational schools. This is because they help in the complete development of the society and help in shaping its future in a correct manner.

important-decision Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun
Sample Answer

A lot of conflict takes place inside our brains while making a decision. When we start suffering from the choice overload, we tend to avoid the efforts of making a correct decision. Hence, we start seeking suggestions from others.

Recently, I found myself standing on the crossroads and was unable to decide where to go. In that situation, I decided not to bear the burden of the crossroad questions alone. Therefore, in order to reduce that cognitive dissonance, I approached my father for his help.

I was working in a renowned Multinational Company as a manager. Although, I was drawing a handsome salary there, I was not feeling happy and contented as I always wanted to be a businessman. At that point in my career, leaving a stable job just to fulfill my dream seemed quite risky. I discussed my plan with my father and asked for his advice. I told him that I wanted to come back to my hometown for doing business. He motivated me and said that we get only one life to live our dreams. Moreover, he not only shown his belief in my entrepreneurial skills but also supported me financially to establish my own enterprise.

By the grace of God and my father’s blessings, I am running my business successfully. What is more, I am able to provide employment to hundreds of people. That one decision has changed my life completely and the credit goes to my father. It not only helped me to fulfill my individual responsibilities but social responsibilities as well.
