Describe a school you went to in your childhood.

You should say:

  • Where it was?
  • What it was like?
  • What did you learn there and explain how you felt  about it?
SAMPLE ANSWER

When we talk about childhood, the first memories that we can recall are of our good times spent in school. I studied in Convent of Jesus & Mary, Dehradun. It is one of the most prestigious and oldest schools in Dehradun. Even though many years have passed since I left school, I vividly remember the impressive layout and architecture of my school.

There was a huge church at the entrance. After the church, there was a beautiful garden on one side and the rows of colourful seasonal flowers gave a warm welcome. All the students walked along this floral path towards the main building. A sense of calm pervaded over me when I stepped into the school every morning and walked down towards the main building.

The junior and senior sections had dedicated buildings. A vast playground separated the two wings. The playground was fully equipped with swings, monkey bars and sea-saws. Swings were my favourite. It was a routine for me to reach early so that I could play on the swings for few minutes before going to my class.

All the teachers in my school were very loving and caring. Throughout my schooling we were taught how to lead a disciplined life. The focus was on all round development and the teachers encouraged the students to participate in a range of extracurricular activities, from dramatics, dancing, singing to sports. The personality of every student was nurtured with utmost responsibility.

I consider myself fortunate to attend this school. Whatever I have achieved today the credit for it goes to the dedication of my school teachers.

IELTS cue card: How do old people spend their Leisure time?

How do old people spend their leisure time?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, nonetheless. Old people need someone to talk to otherwise they feel all lonely and left out. 

The third most common way of spending time for old people is -since most of them are grandparents- to have fun with their grandkids. 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 television programme that you watch

Describe a television programme that you watch.

You should say:

  • What kind of television programme it is?
  • What usually happens in the television programme?
  • Why you enjoy watching the television programme?

And explain why you would recommend the television programme to the other people.

Sample Answer:

I don’t watch TV so often but whenever I find a chance I always try and watch a show called “Kings of Restoration”. It is featured on the History Channel. It is a great show for anyone who has an interest in art and creativity.

The show starts with the announcement of the product received recently for restoration. Rick Dale, the owner and the host along with his team explores the product and tells about its current condition and what ideas they have for fixing it.  They get a variety of products from old broken vending machines to automobiles. The whole team works hands in hands to get the original raw parts and prepare the required designs. The show telecasts the way they work on each of the old part.

I love watching this show for a number of reasons. I used to team up with my dad as a child and watch the whole series with uttermost fascination. So, this show holds memories with my dad. As both of us have a deep profound interest in machines and tools, we would often talk over our own suggestions and ideas while watching it.

This TV programme has also helped me come up with a lot of creative solutions for my old goods and helped me restore many items that weren’t in use. The best part about the show is always the ending scene when they finally give away the restored product to the owner. It leaves everyone of us including the customer enthralled and amazed. I recommend this show to everyone because it’s a perfect Sunday afternoon show for both the young and old. It not only entertains the viewers but also provides a lot of knowledge at the same time.

IELTS Cue Card: Describe your hometown

Describe your hometown.

You should know:

  • Where is your hometown?
  • What is it famous for?
  • What do people do here?

My hometown is Dehradun. It is a valley town nestled in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. Picturesque sights and natural landscapes make it one of the most beautiful places to visit in India. It is also the state capital of Uttarakhand, and is about two hundred and fifty kilometers away from the national capital, New Delhi.

For its central location and religious significance, Dehradun is colloquially known as the gateway to God’s abode. Apart from the holy spirit, tourist attractions like Mussoorie, Kempty falls, Camel’s back mountains, Robber’s cave and the Forest Research Institute give Dehradun a different feel. Adding further, this city is renowned as an education hub. Students of all age groups from different parts of the country come to study here.

Another notable centre of attraction in Dehradun is the prestigious Indian Military Academy. It is a crown jewel which imparts a glorious prestige to the whole state of Uttarakhand. The pleasant weather of Dehradun also deserves special mention here. It is one of the few places in the country where one can experience five different seasons of the year.

In terms of the infrastructure and businesses, Dehradun is developing gradually.  Education, manufacturing, food production and information technology are the main sectors which provide employment to a large number of people. As a whole, Dehradun has its own unique essence that the locals cherish. Its natural beauty, weather and quality of life, all make it a lovable place for everyone, including me.
