IELTS SPEAKING TASK CUE CARD : DESCRIBE A PERSON WHO HAS INTERESTING OPINIONS. Best IELTS Coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER
We all are, at some point, in our lives effected by the opinions of others. It eventually broadens our viewpoint and thinking process. The topic reminds me of our school’s Psychology teacher whose influential opinions affected me the most. Her name was Ma’am Pooja and she was quite admired among her students mainly due to her optimistic attitude towards life and the way in which she gave her personal suggestions and recommendations while teaching, making the students comfortable in any situation. Her cheerful nature was absolutely remarkable.

As I told earlier, Ma’am Pooja was my Psychology teacher at school but she was also one of my closest friend’s mother. With time, I started discussing my confidential matters with her. She taught me to keep a positive view towards life and with her help and guidance I was able to improve my confidence substantially.

This all started when once I went to visit my friend and I had a low spirit that day regarding my choice of career. My parents wanted me to pursue my profession in Chartered Accountancy, while I was interested in Photography. She guided me to speak to my parents about my passion in this field and gave me a brilliant idea of taking them to an International Photography Event that was being conducted in my city. This helped me change their perspective towards this profession. Since that day, I constantly take Ma’am’s advice related to many things without hesitation. I’m extremely grateful to her guidance because of which today I’m a widely known Photographer of my country. Had I not followed her advice, I wouldn’t have achieved what I have so far.

IELTS CUE CARD # DESCRIBE YOUR FAVORITE MOVIE. Best IELTS Band7 Coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER-

There are some movies that we watch and forget while some others have an everlasting effect on our lives. I would like to talk about my favorite movie, 3 idiots. It is a Bollywood movie directed and produced by a well-known Indian director, Raj Kumar Hirani. Since it was based on a renowned novel ‘5 Points Someone’ and one of my favorite artist, Aamir Khan is casted in it, I was extremely eager to watch this film.

The film is focused on three college friends from a prestigious institution of India. The plot revolves around the protagonists belonging to different cultural backgrounds who have different goals in life but they end up in an engineering institution. Thus, talking about how Asian parents force the dreams on their children. One of them has a unique approach towards life and is blessed with a super technical mind. On the other hand, his friends were not that brilliant and were not interested in a particular field.

This movie was released in 2009 so it’s been quite a long time but it still remains on the top of my all-time favorite movies. I remember watching it with my friends during my school days. The film is beautifully crafted and has some exciting twists. It gained pretty good recognition among audience worldwide.

This is my favorite movie as it has many messages to deliver on friendship, success and the education system of our nation. The movie highlights a friendship bonding among three college friends. It also teaches about following our passion instead of worrying about grades in order to be accomplished in life. The film also questions the Indian education system where one gets job placement based on grades rather than creative ideas and invention.

IELTS Cue Card : How do old people spend their Leisure time?

April 19, 2025 IELTS Research

How do old people spend their leisure time?

You should say:

Who they spend it with?

How often do they do it?

How do they like it?

Sample Answer

The way people spend their leisure time changes dramatically as they age. Old people mostly spend their time watching television or listening to the radio. I remember my grandfather wasn’t much interested in watching TV but he was big on the news. He used to listen to the news every night religiously, and then he would have a sort of round-table discussion over the current issues with his friends.

Another way old people get together is when they meet for a walk. They never miss a chance to catch up with their buddies while they get themselves some fresh air in the park every day. They would, actually, talk more but walk less. But it’s good. Old people need someone to talk to otherwise they feel very lonely and left out.

The third most common way of spending time for old people is to have fun with their grandchildren. In joint families, it’s mostly the grandparents who spend their time with the little children while their parents are busy at work. It is thought that since they were too busy while raising their own kids, old people now can sort of compensate it and enjoy their time frolicking with the toddlers.

IELTS Cue Card – Describe a person you know who likes to talk a lot

April 15, 2025 IELTS Research

Describe a person you know who likes to talk a lot.

You should say:

Who this person is?

How do you know him/her?

What he/she likes to talk about?

And explain how you feel about this person.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Some people can talk endlessly for many hours, and surprisingly, they never feel bored. On the other side, I am the type of individual who would prefer solace and speaking the bare minimum. At my workplace, I’m surrounded by many talkative individuals. Ritu happens to be one of them. She is my lovely colleague who has a pleasing personality. She is tall with dusky complexion and possesses a beautiful smile.

Ritu is an absolute talker, so having her around will keep anyone entertained. She is not limited to any one subject to discourse on; rather, she is self-sufficient. Ritu has a lot of talents, but her sense of humour makes her the ultimate performer. She does stand-up comedy and completely nails it during our holiday meetings and business get-togethers. She can, however, occasionally become a bit annoying and challenging to manage. Ritu once received a severe reprimand from our manager for talking nonstop about the product at a meeting.

I believe she was making every effort to impress the clients but she was unable to control her tendency to talk excessively. The client found too much information confusing and didn’t show much interest in our services. Fortunately, the deal was saved by one of our brilliant negotiators. I believe, she has a kind heart, but sometimes her overly chatty personality gets her into problems.

STRONG WORDS

WORDS	MEANING	Sentence
Reprimand	To tell someone officially that he/she has done something wrong	The boss reprimanded his employees for being careless towards their work.
Nailed it	To skilfully/creatively complete a task	It was her first time performing in public, and I guess she nailed it.

Part 3 follow-up questions

Q1. What communication skills are important?
I believe verbal communication and the skill of confidently stating one’s opinion are very essential. Moreover, I would like to add the importance of being a good listener for having smooth communication in conversation.

Q2. What jobs need employees to be talkative?
Jobs related to sales and marketing require employees to be expressive and have the ability to convince people. Additionally, people working at radio stations, especially radio jockeys, are expected to be entertaining by cracking jokes and talking a lot.

Q3. Should children be encouraged to talk more?
Well, children should definitely learn to present themselves without being scared, and learning communication skills will definitely help them in the long run. What needs to be closely checked is knowing what to say and where to say it. Being a good communicator requires a person to know how much to say and how to convey their opinion without being rude or disrespectful.
