IELTS Cue Card – Childhood Skill

Leave a comment

We all are the ultimate result of the skills that we learn. There are people who can paint well and, for that matter, some who can play games or write. And it takes the time to build those skills. Skills even as simple as typing can help people go a long way. This time let us have a look at a recent question asked in the IELTS Speaking section.

Tell us about a skill that you have learned in your childhood.
  • What is that skill?
  • How has it helped you in your life?
  • Did your teachers, parents played an important role in nurturing the skill?
Also explain, if you think learning can be done best when someone gives their heart into it or they are forced to do it?

SAMPLE ANSWER

The one thing that has really helped me in my life is my control of keys on the keyboard. I learnt to type when computers had yet not gained much momentum, and we really did not know that it would be of so much use in the near future. However, I really am thankful to my father, who helped me work on it. So, when other children were busy learning by writing things in their notebooks, I used to make my notes on the computer and get them printed.

The entire thing came back to me only when I took up a job as a blogger. When one is writing something, it is good to have the entire focus on what needs to be written rather than how it finally gets entered. My typing speed has not only helped me write better articles but also type them fast, giving room for more assignments and so more money.

Even more, being a coder, it is nice to have control of the keyboard. After all, it is a way by which you can actually interact with the CPU and get things done. Better control means things are done faster and there is less frustration over petty matters.

I believe children need to be exposed to all the new possibilities around them and then let them decide what they actually want. Even if they are indecisive, they should be allowed to try their hand at more than one thing. With time, they as well as teachers and parents will know the one thing the child will be best at.
