IELTS Cue Card Sample Answer # Favorite Restaurant

March 3, 2025 IELTS Research

Describe your favorite restaurant.
You should say-
• where it is?
• What it looks like inside and outside?
• What kind of foods they serve?
What makes this restaurant so special to you and others?

Sample Answer:

My city is home to numerous fast food outlets and traditional restaurants. Today, I am going to talk about a restaurant which I love.

My favourite restaurant is Countdown and it is situated at the centre of the city I am currently living in. From the outside the restaurant doesn’t look very impressive. It is located on the ground floor of a three storey building. It is quite big width wise, but not in terms of length. It has large glass windows at the front and vehicles are parked all around it. But once you step in, it is not only spacious but surprisingly well-organized and elegant.

They offer a wide range of cuisines including Italian, Indian, Thai, Pakistani and local varieties. This gives you a wide range of options to choose from.

I and many others who know about this place find this restaurant quite unique because of its delicious food and high standard of hygiene. Not only that the prices are also reasonable and the food is served quickly as opposed to some other restaurants where you will have to wait for a long time for your order to appear on your table. They also play soft background music which makes one forget about all the tensions and stress of life. The waiters and other staff are friendly and welcoming.

Unlike other restaurants, they even ask for feedback and customer complaints are taken very seriously. All in all, I think it is one of the best restaurants in my city and someone visiting the city should surely go there.

IELTS CUE CARD – Talk about a time you received good news.

February 27, 2025 IELTS Research

IELTS CUE CARD : Talk about a time you received good news.

You should say:

When it happened?

How you got the news?

What the news was about?

and explain why the news was special?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Good and bad news are a part and parcel of everyone’s life. Today, I’d like to talk about a time when I received good news.

I live in London. It’s been two years since I came here to pursue my higher education. My studies are quite demanding. Because of a busy schedule, I rarely get time to talk to my family and video calls are only possible on weekends. Last week, I video called my mother in India and I suddenly saw her holding a newborn baby in her arms. It was so cute – just a bundle of joy wrapped in my mom’s arms.

I asked my mother who the baby was, and she exclaimed with joy that it was the baby of my close aunt who had no children. It was indeed a surprise for me because I have been far away from my family; therefore, I wasn’t aware about it. My mother told me that the birth of this baby was a miracle given the health complexities my aunt had. I thanked God for fulfilling my aunt’s wish and blessing her with a healthy baby she could call her own.

Emotions were running high in my head. It reminded me of the time when she used to visit us during summer holidays and she would talk to my mum about her feelings of loneliness and the social stigma of being childless. I was very happy for her. I also felt sad because I could not hold this cute little baby in my arms and give both of them a warm hug. Seeing a lot of other relatives in the video call calmed me down. They were all happy, cheering, having a great time, enjoying with the baby. It was truely good news for everyone.

IELTS Cue Card # Talk about learning English language

February 19, 2025 IELTS Research

In part 2 of the IELTS speaking test, a topic is given to the candidate. It is commonly called as a Cue Card. You are given a minute to make your notes about the given topic and plan what you are going to say. After the preparation time, you are expected to speak fluently on the given topic.

So, let’s practice a cue card.

Talk about learning English language

How long have you been learning English language?

Where did you learn?

What is the easiest or most difficult part of English?

Is English important in your profession?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Throughout my schooling, I studied in an English medium school. So, English was the second language I learnt at a young age. Practically, I can say that I have been familiar with English for now 18 years. During the primary years, I did not take English very seriously and grammar rules never bothered me. It was in class VIII that I understood the importance of learning grammar and vocabulary. Since then, I have been an avid reader and have made conscious attempts to improve my English language proficieny.

For me, the most difficult part of English was remembering the spellings of new words and using them in the right context. However, since I loved English, I overcame this problem by practising and writing regularly.

Now, I am a writer and I write travel blogs in English. So, English is a crucial part of my profession. For me, it is very important that my writing is clear, engaging and accurate. I’d like to conclude by saying that language acquistion is a gradual process which requires patience and continous efforts.

IELTS Cue Card Sample Answer # Subject Taught

February 15, 2025 IELTS Research

Describe a subject taught in your school.
You should say –
– What was it and who taught it?
– How was it taught?
– What did you learn from the class?

and explain how it helped you.

Sample Answer

Many subjects were taught in my school. The subject I’d like to talk about is English. Each year a new teacher used to teach us English. I remember Ms. Sujata, Mr. Rajan and Sister Rose Charles were among the few teachers who taught us English in different years.

I think we were fortunate to have qualified English language teachers who knew how to teach. Our teachers made us so engrossed in the subject that we took it seriously. Firstly, each chapter was thoroughly discussed. Then, questions were asked from any part of the chapter, vocabulary could be any word of the chapter and we had to be well prepared for it. So, we were not just limited to questions given in the book or the ones given by the teacher, instead we had to make short questions from the chapter and learn lots of words. Of course it was tough, but it was fun, I’d say. When a chapter with a play came, we enacted it.

So, I did not just learn English, I was fully involved in it. Learning English has been very helpful for me. At a personal level, it gave me a broader exposure of different cultures, people and their perspectives. When it comes to work, communication is an integral part of my day-to-day life. I work as a business development manager so I have to communicate with businessmen, stakeholders and many other individuals, all from different parts of the world. Owing to my effective oral and written English language skills, I have achieved great success in my career. Certainly, the credit for this goes to my teachers, my school and my parents.
