WEBVTT

00:03.070 --> 00:04.570
All right so.

00:05.040 --> 00:05.730
All right.

00:05.740 --> 00:09.880
So this is the speaking test for is it.

00:09.890 --> 00:12.770
Tamala Yes.

00:12.820 --> 00:13.630
No.

00:14.330 --> 00:18.080
Net net near Milan Yeah.

00:18.180 --> 00:19.020
OK great.

00:19.200 --> 00:20.970
I never lie before we get started.

00:20.970 --> 00:23.770
Do you have any questions about the speaking section at all.

00:26.160 --> 00:31.600
Nothing and searching out because I had gone through all your trainings and I had listened to the training

00:31.640 --> 00:32.700
that it posted.

00:33.640 --> 00:34.570
OK.

00:34.910 --> 00:35.280
Good.

00:35.280 --> 00:40.090
So have you taken the exam before.

00:40.120 --> 00:44.860
No can I was the first time I met OK.

00:45.180 --> 00:48.580
Can you give me one moment please.

01:00.390 --> 01:01.140
OK.

01:01.330 --> 01:02.420
Sorry about that.

01:02.640 --> 01:03.410
OK.

01:03.460 --> 01:07.000
And so tell me again is this your first time taking the test.

01:08.710 --> 01:11.180
Yeah this is the first time I'm thinking right.

01:11.200 --> 01:17.140
So you know that in terms of when they're scoring you for the exam they're scoring you in four different

01:17.140 --> 01:17.760
areas.

01:17.760 --> 01:19.110
Right.

01:19.120 --> 01:25.060
What are the one of those four areas that you're going to score you in quite a few.

01:25.060 --> 01:27.470
Is it an observation.

01:27.670 --> 01:31.110
I pronounce them grammar.

01:31.290 --> 01:34.490
What cab Larry.

01:34.590 --> 01:36.330
And if you anything great.

01:36.510 --> 01:42.690
Now if you're trying to get a seven or eight which I'm assuming you're trying to get and you're speaking

01:43.140 --> 01:46.700
a minimum of seven or eight what we would love to get an item sure.

01:46.710 --> 01:49.010
But let's just talk about seven or eight.

01:49.200 --> 01:54.270
If you're going to get a 7 or 8 in your fluency score What do you need to do.

01:57.570 --> 02:01.770
So you have to try to make very less mistake.

02:01.950 --> 02:06.760
You have to use a lot of complex and compound statements.

02:06.810 --> 02:14.970
Well now let's lay it on hold on let's stay focused on on fluency and coherence.

02:14.970 --> 02:20.900
Right because what you're talking about is you're moving all rigid grammar and vocabulary right.

02:20.970 --> 02:22.820
So this is very important.

02:22.820 --> 02:31.010
One thing the students don't realize is you get a separate score in each of these four categories.

02:31.050 --> 02:37.990
So if we're only talking about fluency and coherence if you want to get a 7 or 8 influence your coherence

02:38.460 --> 02:41.810
you have to know what do I need to do right.

02:41.910 --> 02:42.870
What do I need to do.

02:42.870 --> 02:48.930
So you have to be able to you know speak fluently without any type of repetition.

02:49.170 --> 02:49.510
Right.

02:49.530 --> 02:56.490
No hesitation that that means that when you're speaking you're not you don't have pauses where you're

02:56.490 --> 03:02.360
searching for the right words to say right all or when you give answers you develop.

03:02.420 --> 03:09.390
You develop your answers coherently you develop them with explanation right.

03:09.410 --> 03:17.690
You have to be able to use a range of different connectives and different discourse markers you're right.

03:17.710 --> 03:26.290
So if you're talking about fluency and coherence those are the things that you need to do when it comes

03:26.290 --> 03:29.920
to fluency and coherence.

03:29.940 --> 03:36.940
Right now when it comes to vocabulary we're yet to make sure that you're trying to use some less common

03:36.940 --> 03:44.830
Idia idiomatic structures that you really can really paraphrase really really well that you're able

03:44.830 --> 03:49.090
to use a variety of vocabulary than when it comes to grammar.

03:49.090 --> 03:53.590
Then you're talking about a wide range of structures that you're using in terms of grammar.

03:53.590 --> 04:00.510
The majority of sentences are error free so you know when those are the things you have to make sure

04:00.540 --> 04:07.770
that you're doing because these people are looking at your English ability and they're looking at the

04:07.770 --> 04:10.950
English speaking ability in these four areas.

04:11.010 --> 04:16.950
So to make sure that you get a seven or eight you need make sure you're doing these things to qualify

04:16.950 --> 04:17.910
for those scores.

04:17.910 --> 04:21.140
Some guy OK.

04:21.340 --> 04:23.640
All right so we're going to go and get started.

04:23.690 --> 04:31.280
I'll take you through part one and I might stop you along the way if I hear some things that I'm hearing

04:31.280 --> 04:37.490
that you are repeating in terms of mistakes and then we'll move on to part number two and part three.

04:37.630 --> 04:40.070
And and then we will conclude.

04:40.160 --> 04:40.750
Okay.

04:43.240 --> 04:43.630
All right.

04:43.630 --> 04:47.740
So let's go ahead and get started.

04:50.720 --> 04:51.360
Okay.

04:51.430 --> 04:55.950
So could you please tell me your name.

04:58.880 --> 05:01.360
My parents actually mean me.

05:01.580 --> 05:11.780
And then that's my 14 mean my relatives my cousins and my friends call me names not just me me me.

05:12.020 --> 05:13.470
OK that sounds good.

05:13.520 --> 05:15.680
And Nemy where are you from.

05:18.160 --> 05:20.130
Basically I am from Bonnell.

05:20.190 --> 05:22.870
It's the southern part of India.

05:23.260 --> 05:25.240
It has a very good climate out here.

05:25.450 --> 05:27.070
You'll enjoy staying here.

05:27.580 --> 05:27.980
All right.

05:28.000 --> 05:30.950
And do you reside in a house or apartment.

05:33.550 --> 05:42.280
Currently I'm living in a house that is quite spacious airy and that's the place where we're relaxing

05:42.280 --> 05:43.450
point.

05:43.630 --> 05:44.090
All right.

05:44.110 --> 05:47.850
And how far is your house from the test are

05:51.190 --> 05:52.570
there roughly.

05:52.570 --> 05:55.860
I can get around 10 kilometers.

05:55.990 --> 06:01.550
It takes around in our to reach there because of geographic OK.

06:01.970 --> 06:06.170
And before this current apartment that you live in where did you live before.

06:10.070 --> 06:12.380
Frankly speaking I don't have.

06:12.390 --> 06:20.060
Have not changed my place since so long because I stay along with my parents and it's been almost 10

06:20.060 --> 06:22.300
years since I'm staying the same place.

06:22.670 --> 06:23.280
OK.

06:23.510 --> 06:25.640
All right now let's move on.

06:25.640 --> 06:28.160
Do you work or study.

06:30.500 --> 06:37.930
And I'm currently working as a software engineer on a company called EMC.

06:37.940 --> 06:40.870
It's been 10 years since Im working here.

06:41.010 --> 06:41.440
All right.

06:41.450 --> 06:43.710
And what exactly does your company do.

06:48.750 --> 06:54.710
It a multinational company and it's basically into software.

06:54.880 --> 07:03.400
It also develops saw applications which are required for storage Saba's mostly to all the components

07:03.400 --> 07:06.350
of computers.

07:07.150 --> 07:09.780
And what changes would you make there.

07:09.790 --> 07:15.920
Look at the company.

07:16.510 --> 07:23.860
Definitely one thing that I can actually think of now is the kind of benefits that they provide those.

07:24.120 --> 07:33.340
I think they should not be asking us charges to be made up for travel transport commute for.

07:33.330 --> 07:40.930
FLATOW places I think that should be something which is that should be given by the company not something

07:40.930 --> 07:44.170
which is required to be paid by the employers.

07:44.570 --> 07:45.580
OK.

07:45.820 --> 07:50.520
And did you get any did you get any training for the work you are doing currently.

07:54.660 --> 07:55.680
Definitely yes.

07:55.680 --> 08:03.380
I had all training which was provided to me for around 90 days which was called as the ramp for Peter.

08:03.630 --> 08:09.290
So they provided all the needs so that I am safe when I start my work.

08:09.970 --> 08:10.590
All right good.

08:10.630 --> 08:13.920
I know Miles so far you're doing a really good job.

08:14.170 --> 08:18.860
You're giving me a mixture of different types of sentences which is very good.

08:18.940 --> 08:23.120
You've got a really beautiful job of using different discourse markers.

08:23.410 --> 08:29.920
You can use many different discourse markers which is very good don't don't feel don't feel the need

08:29.920 --> 08:33.550
that you have to use a discourse mark with every sentence.

08:33.550 --> 08:34.470
Right.

08:34.870 --> 08:38.530
But I haven't heard the same discourse marker twice.

08:38.740 --> 08:41.740
And that's really good because they're like I said earlier.

08:41.740 --> 08:49.210
That's one of the marks of somebody giving a seven eight or even nine in there speaking is being able

08:49.210 --> 08:50.260
to do a range of that.

08:50.260 --> 08:56.850
You haven't had any hesitation in your pronunciation has also been very very good.

08:56.960 --> 09:00.540
You can so yeah you're doing a really really great job so far.

09:00.540 --> 09:03.100
So does you know will you take your exam.

09:03.160 --> 09:07.320
You want to make sure that you keep doing things in that way.

09:07.390 --> 09:08.030
OK.

09:09.580 --> 09:10.320
I'll answer.

09:10.540 --> 09:15.600
So let's keep going we have but we're going to move on and talk about boredom.

09:15.610 --> 09:16.290
All right.

09:16.360 --> 09:22.340
Do you usually get bored.

09:22.460 --> 09:24.500
That's something right.

09:25.070 --> 09:32.520
Every human being gets booed at least once or sometime in a week or in a day.

09:32.810 --> 09:40.760
So the thing that I do to actually get rid of the boredom is I read through some nice good no don't

09:40.850 --> 09:42.010
watch TV.

09:42.220 --> 09:47.240
So that's how I just come out of boredom.

09:47.390 --> 09:50.770
And what has been your most boring experience.

09:55.650 --> 09:58.520
I had many are boring experience.

09:58.530 --> 10:06.210
But one thing that I would definitely say now which is something which made me too dated and it was

10:06.210 --> 10:15.960
too boring was that I had gone to the most overrated movie that I had booked for tickets which was almost

10:16.060 --> 10:17.180
a double time.

10:17.190 --> 10:24.120
The actual cost of the movie and I had gone on a first day first show but it dawned on to be really

10:24.120 --> 10:32.210
waste of time and waste of money and the expectation was not up the mark.

10:32.370 --> 10:38.790
And with home withholding would you like to spend time with while you're bored.

10:44.660 --> 10:52.190
My little one is the one room I actually want to spend the maximum blame because she refreshes me a

10:52.190 --> 10:57.040
lot actually takes me to a different one.

10:57.490 --> 11:05.130
The childish behavior she does it always remembers me the way I was when I was smart.

11:05.600 --> 11:08.370
That's something that I enjoy the most.

11:08.370 --> 11:08.620
All right.

11:08.630 --> 11:09.580
So be careful.

11:09.590 --> 11:11.020
Come back to be with my daughter.

11:11.030 --> 11:11.620
Be careful.

11:11.620 --> 11:17.210
A couple of grammar things and word choice things I've heard you miss a couple of articles but also

11:17.210 --> 11:19.860
in that last sentence you want to say she does.

11:19.910 --> 11:24.960
She remembers me she reminds me well.

11:25.430 --> 11:28.140
She reminds me all right.

11:29.130 --> 11:30.140
OK good.

11:30.150 --> 11:35.890
Now the other thing I want to also be careful with is in the very first question.

11:36.090 --> 11:40.960
The very first question was do you do you usually get bored right now.

11:40.980 --> 11:46.960
You answer the question but then you went into what do you do when you get bored.

11:48.270 --> 11:49.170
All right.

11:49.270 --> 11:55.090
Take me out which is this is slightly outside of the question.

11:55.220 --> 11:55.610
Right.

11:55.610 --> 11:58.530
So when it talks about do you usually get bored.

11:58.880 --> 12:03.770
You know you you start off OK you know you let you know you're sort of really good you know as with

12:04.190 --> 12:05.880
as with any human being.

12:06.140 --> 12:09.420
I definitely get bored from time to time.

12:09.500 --> 12:19.250
Normally when I get bored it's because I have not discovered a hobby that I enjoy doing or I have some

12:19.250 --> 12:22.850
time off from work which normally occupies my time.

12:22.850 --> 12:23.150
Right.

12:23.150 --> 12:29.960
Do you want to stay inside the question of do you usually get bored don't go into what do you do when

12:29.960 --> 12:30.920
you get bored.

12:32.220 --> 12:37.460
Them To me a little kid saying here I'll be on them.

12:37.730 --> 12:38.450
Yeah yeah.

12:38.560 --> 12:43.630
And sometimes that's a little that's a little tricky when you're in the middle of the exam.

12:43.870 --> 12:50.440
But I think the more you you practice and I think it's a good idea to record yourself when you're practicing

12:50.950 --> 12:58.450
so you can go back and listen to yourself and make sure that you're staying inside the question when

12:58.450 --> 12:59.490
you're practicing.

12:59.500 --> 13:02.770
You really need to have another person ask you the questions.

13:02.890 --> 13:08.620
It's very difficult to read the question and then answer the question yourself is better to have somebody

13:08.920 --> 13:14.860
that can read these questions to you so you can practice responding and make sure it's recorded.

13:14.890 --> 13:20.330
Listen back to yourself and make sure that you're doing your best to stay inside the question OK.

13:21.600 --> 13:22.970
OK.

13:23.220 --> 13:23.690
All right.

13:23.730 --> 13:33.960
So we are going to move on and talk about teachers if I can.

13:34.010 --> 13:34.530
All right.

13:34.690 --> 13:41.180
Now do you remember something extra ordinary you were taught by a teacher at school

13:47.900 --> 13:49.790
goes yes.

13:50.110 --> 13:58.150
So I remember the most important thing which was start when I was doing my primary schooling was the

13:58.270 --> 14:03.170
biology which was being gone and breathing on the heart.

14:03.430 --> 14:12.010
So that was something which I definitely remember the most.

14:12.230 --> 14:12.620
All right.

14:12.690 --> 14:15.540
And how how.

14:15.590 --> 14:18.610
How have teachers changed from the past.

14:23.170 --> 14:30.810
The teaching methodology is have been changed from the time that I was there in the school to the time

14:30.810 --> 14:37.140
the way my daughter has been in the school because nowadays the schools have been introduced with this

14:37.140 --> 14:38.230
man board.

14:38.340 --> 14:46.940
They introduce them to the girls during the Clash cause it's just not read the audio or the ways that's

14:46.950 --> 14:48.630
been heard from the teachers.

14:48.630 --> 14:54.240
It's also the images that's been portrayed in front of them the actions.

14:54.360 --> 14:56.590
So it's been drastically improved.

14:57.470 --> 14:58.070
OK.

14:58.250 --> 15:01.010
And have you ever thought about being a teacher.

15:06.210 --> 15:11.920
Basically all I have tried.

15:12.180 --> 15:19.200
And because the first person who actually inspired me was my class teacher.

15:19.440 --> 15:21.840
So I have tried to become a teacher.

15:22.960 --> 15:23.730
OK.

15:24.170 --> 15:28.940
Now again you're doing a good job in terms of fluently getting through your sentences but there are

15:28.940 --> 15:35.610
some some things I want to be careful with in terms of these are again grammar things.

15:35.630 --> 15:41.880
So for example you said teaching teaching without teaching mythologies have been changed.

15:42.140 --> 15:47.120
Raju it would normally be deep teaching without teaching mythologies have changed.

15:48.450 --> 15:56.410
Or in your first sentence you said which was being concentrated which was being concentrating in health

15:57.070 --> 16:03.430
right which should be which which was which was concentrated on health.

16:03.560 --> 16:11.050
And then also then be careful when you're saying a word like the word of voice sometimes you say you're

16:11.050 --> 16:20.430
v a little bit like a W remember is this is a hard sound V is voice not wice me right.

16:20.460 --> 16:26.480
So it is you've got to make sure you can balance correct with your Vee's.

16:26.900 --> 16:30.900
Katie is happy to know what repeat what.

16:31.360 --> 16:41.280
And the pronunciation of y voice voice as he puts puts it he puts your teeth on your bottom lip.

16:41.410 --> 16:44.230
VOICE.

16:44.620 --> 16:47.320
Why no voice.

16:47.800 --> 16:55.260
No you're still saying you like a W. helping let me practice it right so just practicing.

16:55.330 --> 17:00.950
Because that's something that that falls into the category of pronunciation.

17:01.150 --> 17:01.800
OK.

17:02.760 --> 17:03.600
OK.

17:05.610 --> 17:13.010
All right now we're going to move on and talk about telephones.

17:13.260 --> 17:15.220
How often do you use your phone.

17:19.990 --> 17:27.820
Almost all the time the telephone or the mobile phone is in my hand because that's something which I

17:27.880 --> 17:35.440
always keep using it because of any whatsapp messages or any calls or any.

17:35.680 --> 17:38.970
So that's always there in my hand.

17:39.850 --> 17:44.750
And for what purpose do people in your country mainly use their mobile phone.

17:48.800 --> 18:00.860
They mainly use it for for cars but they also use it for checking emails messaging listening to music

18:00.980 --> 18:09.280
so prominently they use it for Kautz prominently they use it prominently they use.

18:09.460 --> 18:11.840
That's that's not the right word you want to use there.

18:12.800 --> 18:21.460
Now I can see mostly know but not prominent prominent as prominent a little bit different.

18:21.500 --> 18:24.980
What apps are making what apps are used in your country.

18:31.530 --> 18:41.150
Last three apps are something that's been used in my country the most because that's something which

18:41.240 --> 18:50.060
every person every individual watches today for any smoking or ordering of food or watching my device

18:50.060 --> 18:52.500
that they want on a daily basis.

18:52.550 --> 18:57.220
So the grocery absence I'm just watching my country.

18:57.500 --> 18:57.970
All right.

18:58.040 --> 19:02.600
And are there any apps that you would like to have that you don't have.

19:09.950 --> 19:10.930
Yes.

19:11.090 --> 19:20.060
So one at which I would think of is something which has all your on necessities that one go.

19:20.060 --> 19:26.410
So you just open up the app and you'll have all your requirements saying and booking tickets for you

19:26.420 --> 19:33.760
are really for your train for free or air tickets movies or ordering food.

19:33.870 --> 19:42.240
So everything is being taken care in that one thing that's been an ongoing and started from DAPs OK

19:42.270 --> 19:43.350
good.

19:43.380 --> 19:50.100
So the thing is is that you know you're not having a problem with in terms of supplying answers which

19:50.100 --> 19:54.300
is really good and you do a good job of explaining your answers.

19:54.300 --> 19:59.760
Again you have to be careful with the word individual because you're saying that a Wii like a W.
