speaking part 1
In the IELTS Speaking Part 1 Section, IELTS examiner will introduce him or herself and ask personal/general questions on about 3 familiar topic areas such as study, hometown, work, weather, the countryside, politeness, family.
The first topic will be Studies, Work or Where you live. Two other topics with various questions will be categorized in the list below. You can use these sample topics and questions for Speaking Part 1 to rehearse before sitting for the oral interview. Remember not to memorise the suggested answers for Speaking Part 1 because you should give personal answers from your life and experience. There is no right or wrong answer. Remember that these are personal questions and you should therefore give personal answers. If the examiner thinks that you have learnt by heart answers, you will lose lots of marks.
Make sure you can speak correctly, clearly, and with ease and confidence in response to each question. Remember to make your answer interesting by providing more than the most basic information. All of these sample questions are highly likely to appear on your exam in 2016, so please practice them well before taking the IELTS test.
Part 1 of the test will last 4-5 minutes.
