IELTS CUE CARD #Describe a website you often browse.

February 4, 2021 IELTS Research

Describe a website you often browse.

You should say:

what is it

how long have you been using it

detailed information about the website

and explain why you often browse this website.

Sample Answer :

My life revolves around my laptop and I surf lot of websites throughout the day. The website which I visit more often is Sound Cloud. Its my most favourite bookmark.

I am a complete music junkie! I visit the website several times a day to surf the latest music as this is a perfect platform for the releases of new sounds and music. I have been using it for the longest possible time. Almost for the past 5-6 years.

The site is like a whole Pandora box for the music lovers. It contains illustrated tab for the music playing and it shows relevant new music according to your past search and views. For example, I have been able to keep track of this really good artist Juice Worlds by constantly getting notifications and updates of his new music. I think the website is really comprehensive, compact and easy to operate too.

Sound Cloud, for me, is a one-way ticket to heaven. It acts as the best source for party music as well as for times when I like to keep it calm and composed.

The only downside of the website is that you cant really download music from this site and keep it for later use. I think it can be a bit addictive if they allowed it as It would surely take up all the start-up disk space on my laptop. Because it is updated very frequently it is tempting to keep going back and having another look for being the first one to discover a good track. It has often led me to procrastinate when I am supposed to be doing work , I keep telling myself to restrict the amount of time I spend on the site. I haven’t been successful as of yet.

I seriously suggest this website to the insane music lovers and for the ones who already use this site , I bet you’d be an avid a follower as me. (334 words)

IELTS Cue card # About collects things

January 30, 2021 IELTS Research

IELTS Cue card – about collects things

Talk about something you or someone you know collects.

what you or this person collects

how the collection is stored

how quickly the collection is growing

What kind of person would enjoy collecting that thing, and why?

Sample Answer

Collecting items is considered to be a hobby by many and it takes a lot of knowledge and interests to collect something worthy. But, with time, it is becoming a diminishing hobby of sorts nowadays however, there are still many people who have kept this ritual alive. One such person that I know of is Mr Khan. He is a next door neighbour of mine and has worked with the Indian Navy. His voyages and expeditions have landed him in various remote corners of the globe. That’s how he developed this hobby of collecting coins.

He has special custom made boxes where he stores his collection. They are made of premium wood and have partitions inside it in order to store each coin individually. Along with these boxes he has a book in which he has gathered as much information about these coins as possible. The notes and his collection are very informative and they speak volumes about themselves. The most striking feature about his collections is that they are arranged according to the countries in an alphabetic order. So to procure information about any coin from any country is very easy.

It has slowed down over the course of past few years. It’s mostly due to the fact that he has retired now and wants to take things easy. Due to the health issues he is not able to travel that frequently however, he still has loads of tourists flocking his doors as his collection is quite famous and every now and then he will lay his hands on something worthy through them.

One needs a vast knowledge of history for collecting coins. Currencies have played vital roles in our knowledge of understanding past. It is a hobby that requires a lot of patience and at the same time it can be very rewarding too. Certain numismatist have amassed millions through their collections. They all have one thing in common which is their love for history.

Speaking Cue Card: Describe a teacher from your past that you remember.

January 29, 2021 IELTS Research

Describe a teacher from your past that you remember.

You should say:

What class the teacher taught you and how old you were

What the teacher’s special qualities and characteristics were

Why you remember this teacher.

Sample Answer:

A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instil a love of learning. Throughout our lives we meet several educationists and teachers and remember a few for the wonderful qualities that they possess. One such teacher that I can recall is Miss Shreeparna Basu. She taught English literature in my 10^th grade. I was almost 16 then.

She was very well versed in various classical literature. She studied at the abode of art, Shantiniketan. She shared an immense love for poetry similar to mine. It was so fascinating to watch her recite all the melodies of Wordsworth and Shakespeare by heart. As a young reader myself, she proved to be the biggest inspiration in my post teenage years. She effortlessly explained the most scary looking paragraphs as if it was some pop song. She is a very patient and honest lady. I used to make her recite certain sonnets and verses for me after the school hours to which she’d always happily agree. She is also an artist. She is an enchanting painter.

She has helped boost my reading habit. She serves a major role in the developing of my vocabulary. She has also helped me improve my communication skills. She took the mind of a small child and influenced it with Elliot and daffodils. She always taught us to be good human beings. She taught us morals and ethics which as a young individual everyone must cultivate. I still remember her for her thoughtful suggestions and honest reviews.
