WEBVTT 00:00.330 --> 00:01.200 Yeah I'm ready. 00:01.370 --> 00:02.110 OK. 00:02.160 --> 00:05.910 All right so could you please tell me your name. 00:07.360 --> 00:07.890 Yeah. 00:07.930 --> 00:15.820 My name is is my last name is nerdy and my first name is 17 and my parents and friends like to call 00:15.820 --> 00:18.480 me but by my nickname that is savvy. 00:18.520 --> 00:21.310 So you can call me Sandy and certainly as well. 00:21.700 --> 00:22.140 OK. 00:22.270 --> 00:25.250 And what does your name have any meaning. 00:26.470 --> 00:29.510 So that is very unique name in my country. 00:29.510 --> 00:32.230 You won't find it very often. 00:32.360 --> 00:36.700 So my name meaning of MY NAME IS LIKE I LIKE EVERYONE. 00:39.250 --> 00:42.990 OK well what exactly is the meaning of your name. 00:43.110 --> 00:51.310 Or like someone who's been loved by someone who was been loved by somebody else like everyone. 00:51.360 --> 00:54.450 And what are the popular names in your country. 00:55.970 --> 01:00.430 Tuckerman fly downhill Raje. 01:00.480 --> 01:03.060 These are the very popular names in my country. 01:03.060 --> 01:10.560 When you watch the movies Hollywood movies in my country you will often see these name reading in some 01:10.560 --> 01:11.810 of the movies. 01:12.070 --> 01:21.070 These are the very same thing like if you go and you'll find them all do maybe with the name. 01:21.510 --> 01:22.020 All right. 01:22.200 --> 01:26.610 So a couple things you want to think about when it comes to improving your grade. 01:26.610 --> 01:33.000 So for example if I give you a question and I say what are the popular names one thing you want to try 01:33.000 --> 01:43.040 to make sure you do if you can is you want to try to paraphrase this the key language in the question. 01:43.050 --> 01:49.450 So for example I say one of the popular names you could say some of the most well-known writing code 01:49.580 --> 02:00.260 sold you know because the paraphrasing paraphrasing really shows a really high quality level of English 02:00.260 --> 02:02.420 because you can do it immediately. 02:02.510 --> 02:04.360 OK you you want. 02:04.760 --> 02:06.200 Go ahead. 02:06.340 --> 02:09.530 So can we take a pause and think and then start. 02:09.980 --> 02:11.920 Well you can't take a long pause. 02:12.110 --> 02:12.440 Right. 02:12.440 --> 02:16.740 You can't say you can't sit there for like five seconds. 02:17.150 --> 02:17.410 Right. 02:17.420 --> 02:23.420 But if you if I ask you a question and you know what are what are what are the names you're country 02:23.450 --> 02:29.190 and you count you're in your head 1001 1002 and then start that's OK. 02:30.130 --> 02:30.740 OK. 02:31.110 --> 02:31.530 Right. 02:31.530 --> 02:36.830 I think if you're waiting for one second two seconds before you answer this perfectly fine. 02:37.160 --> 02:38.030 Right. 02:38.070 --> 02:46.400 Most people make the mistake of treating the speaking test like like a relay race. 02:46.440 --> 02:53.050 And what I mean by that is I ask the question as soon as I get the last last letter out of my mouth. 02:53.070 --> 02:55.920 You're already answering yes. 02:56.020 --> 02:56.970 And what then. 02:56.970 --> 03:02.150 What that means a lot of times is you haven't taken one second or two seconds to digest the question. 03:03.980 --> 03:08.840 And so sometimes people don't necessarily answer correctly so weighting one or two seconds to digest 03:08.840 --> 03:10.420 and then respond that's OK. 03:12.420 --> 03:13.030 OK. 03:13.270 --> 03:16.450 So that's fine. 03:16.480 --> 03:19.360 Let's let's move forward. 03:20.230 --> 03:22.490 Are you working or studying right now. 03:24.410 --> 03:31.590 I'm currently working as a senior consultant in the MNC. 03:32.140 --> 03:34.790 And I say this is that OK. 03:34.970 --> 03:39.190 And what exactly are your responsibilities at work. 03:41.540 --> 03:48.020 My major jobs and responsibilities roles and responsibilities are to basically said if only because 03:48.050 --> 03:48.610 I can. 03:48.830 --> 03:51.230 So I'm working for a premium bank. 03:51.260 --> 03:56.880 When we secured the network we are preventing them from the cyber threat. 03:56.890 --> 04:03.380 I mean cyber security is my major responsibility a couple of different tools like anyone else. 04:03.620 --> 04:05.600 I'd be as happy as. 04:05.600 --> 04:13.370 So we're trying to secure the mantle of our premium back so one thing you want to be careful with as 04:13.380 --> 04:15.560 regards your use of verb tense. 04:15.580 --> 04:23.110 So for example you're saying my responsibility one of our responsibilities is I am handling it will 04:23.110 --> 04:26.350 be I handle it right. 04:26.360 --> 04:29.080 So just just be careful with your vergence. 04:29.110 --> 04:30.440 OK very good. 04:30.440 --> 04:32.600 Do you like your job. 04:33.050 --> 04:40.790 Yeah pretty pretty much like my job because I think when you love your job you do and you try to get 04:40.790 --> 04:41.560 into it. 04:41.780 --> 04:47.440 So I love my job and Labor Day in my day to day life. 04:47.460 --> 04:50.800 Why. 04:51.180 --> 04:57.660 Told you that being a security professional from the childhood I was a little guy you can take it and 04:57.660 --> 04:59.010 keep it. 04:59.400 --> 05:02.530 And I used to go into the store when I was small. 05:02.550 --> 05:09.360 I still remember my father gave me a system when I was a classmate or something and I used to go up 05:09.570 --> 05:15.030 and do something to get some pictures of them as paint and do something all these kind of stuff and 05:15.030 --> 05:21.390 then claiming my interest in the computers and all that I started to after my graduation I started being 05:21.390 --> 05:23.160 kind of sad to be questioning this. 05:23.520 --> 05:26.190 So it improved me a lot. 05:26.490 --> 05:29.580 That's part of my all right. 05:29.630 --> 05:35.330 Now would you say that created my more interesting interest. 05:35.690 --> 05:36.150 Yeah. 05:36.250 --> 05:36.560 Yeah. 05:36.560 --> 05:45.330 That created that created map not my more you I created my interest yeah that created my interest in 05:46.030 --> 05:53.180 and so that does that's only the dust that's some of the things that I'm hearing that you want to make 05:53.180 --> 05:59.140 sure that you work on as you see that's a word choice issue when they're talking about you using the 05:59.140 --> 06:02.750 word interest instead of the use saying interesting is that of interest. 06:02.980 --> 06:07.850 All those are our word choice issues. 06:08.170 --> 06:10.590 You're doing fine in terms of extending right. 06:10.600 --> 06:14.950 But she you just had to be careful with the word choice things. 06:15.350 --> 06:20.560 What professions what professions give a higher status to people in your country. 06:23.570 --> 06:31.700 There are many professions except in my country country like Lloyd Doctorow's And I think some of them 06:31.700 --> 06:35.920 are white collar jobs are very widely accepted in my country. 06:36.210 --> 06:43.910 So it's basically whenever someone is looking for a goal they will transfer for like Dr. Lloyd you can 06:43.910 --> 06:48.020 say or someone like pilot or something. 06:48.250 --> 06:55.360 So this kind of information on a very highly defined by country OK. 06:55.440 --> 06:59.390 And do you live in an apartment or a house. 07:00.310 --> 07:04.130 I know in our apartment it's flat 07:07.320 --> 07:08.590 OK. 07:09.390 --> 07:17.840 So if you can you want to maybe extend that sentence from this one sentence to two sentences right. 07:17.950 --> 07:19.570 If you're in part one. 07:19.730 --> 07:23.320 What I want you to do is give me a minimum of two sentences. 07:24.310 --> 07:30.410 You're right except for the you know the question about the first question I was her name but really 07:30.410 --> 07:36.200 for all the other questions you need to give me a minimum of two sentences for part one when we get 07:36.200 --> 07:40.420 to part when we get to Part 3 you need to give me a minimum of three sentences. 07:42.360 --> 07:42.790 All right. 07:42.810 --> 07:47.480 So try try your best to not give me any one sentence answers. 07:48.760 --> 07:49.340 Nodded. 07:49.590 --> 07:50.140 OK. 07:54.110 --> 07:54.380 All right. 07:54.390 --> 07:59.090 So would you move to another place in the future. 08:01.260 --> 08:02.500 Yeah definitely. 08:02.510 --> 08:03.170 Yeah. 08:03.300 --> 08:09.030 I'm looking for a large coast where we can move because my family have been extended from like four 08:09.030 --> 08:11.240 member to find my brother recently got married. 08:11.250 --> 08:20.560 So they're looking for a bigger house and love to move up my state for different state. 08:21.150 --> 08:26.350 And where exactly would you most likely move to. 08:26.500 --> 08:28.570 I was working in Bangalore earlier. 08:28.590 --> 08:30.920 Any place anyway we're living right now. 08:30.940 --> 08:34.560 I was born in Bengal so I came back in Bangalore. 08:34.570 --> 08:36.090 I love the weather there. 08:36.280 --> 08:43.810 So if I got a chance I would like to more with my whole family and look for a bigger house. 08:45.970 --> 08:50.790 OK and what type of activities do you enjoy doing outside of the home. 08:52.850 --> 08:58.810 Outside of the home I love playing pool and snooker. 08:59.000 --> 09:05.810 So whenever I get the time or others go to my cousin and my friend and I go to a place that I can go 09:05.810 --> 09:06.620 to. 09:06.890 --> 09:08.530 I love playing that game. 09:08.940 --> 09:09.410 All right. 09:09.410 --> 09:13.080 Are the activities you do now different than what you did as a child. 09:15.440 --> 09:17.360 Yeah there was time. 09:17.580 --> 09:23.460 I still remember I used to go either for the whole summer or a cold winter. 09:23.510 --> 09:28.930 I used to go out and play with my friends and do more out of those games. 09:29.090 --> 09:35.120 But now I think the mind games and everything has been changed I could plug into the computer which 09:35.120 --> 09:38.190 is more physically more into that. 09:38.510 --> 09:46.350 So I think when I was a child I was more physically active and notice more that much into that physically 09:47.390 --> 09:51.930 and what activities would you like to the new activities would you like to try in the future. 09:53.490 --> 10:02.050 Future I have a couple of plans to get like I like to do bungee jumping. 10:02.100 --> 10:05.670 I want to do skydiving. 10:05.800 --> 10:11.120 These are some of the major I would really want to do is scuba diving so I'm looking forward for it. 10:12.480 --> 10:14.960 Okay good. 10:14.970 --> 10:23.130 Now the reason why I ask you that there are series of questions is very often and part one you'll get 10:23.130 --> 10:28.190 some questions are about the present some questions about the past of questions about the future. 10:28.200 --> 10:29.580 Why is that done. 10:29.760 --> 10:35.910 That's done because it's a good way of being able to test your ability to manage verb tenses correctly. 10:35.910 --> 10:36.270 Right. 10:36.300 --> 10:41.520 So you did it you did a pretty good job of doing it but that was the reason why was to give you that 10:41.520 --> 10:48.170 experience of being able to answer in the proper tense and from the proper point of view. 10:48.330 --> 10:57.870 One thing you want to be careful with is it's OK to try to use you know some type of idiomatic language 10:57.990 --> 11:01.850 or you know phrase that phrase a language but you've got to use it correctly. 11:02.070 --> 11:05.440 Like you said I have a list a bucket and. 11:05.790 --> 11:10.310 And it's going to call it's called a bucket list right. 11:10.560 --> 11:12.850 Yeah. 11:13.040 --> 11:18.240 So it's just we get good that you use that because it shows that you have an understanding of some common 11:18.240 --> 11:19.580 language. 11:19.760 --> 11:23.080 There's Use what you just got to use it correctly. 11:23.300 --> 11:23.670 Right. 11:23.670 --> 11:30.330 The other thing that you want to do is I talk to you earlier talked to you earlier about being able 11:30.330 --> 11:31.980 to show ability. 11:31.980 --> 11:35.640 Right so for example when you were describing some things you want to do in the future. 11:35.760 --> 11:40.410 I don't remember exactly what you said but I'll say so I'll give you an example you said I I want to 11:40.410 --> 11:41.650 skydive. 11:41.850 --> 11:46.010 I want to you know I want to learn how to bowl. 11:46.020 --> 11:50.940 I want to use it three things you want to do but she kind of say I want to period. 11:50.970 --> 11:54.850 I want to period I want to theory right. 11:55.160 --> 11:59.460 That that's that's giving me like three short simple sentences. 12:00.050 --> 12:07.370 But you know it's better for you to be able to show your ability to use proper parallelism it right. 12:07.410 --> 12:13.730 So you would say I want to skydive ball and learn how to write a book. 12:13.820 --> 12:14.190 Right. 12:14.190 --> 12:20.540 So again that's showing a higher level of understanding because somebody has a basic level of being 12:20.990 --> 12:23.090 a basic level of English. 12:23.300 --> 12:27.350 They will say I want to do this period I want to do that period I want to do this. 12:27.350 --> 12:28.150 Period. 12:28.460 --> 12:30.380 OK. 12:32.010 --> 12:35.430 All right now let's move on to talk about travel. 12:35.460 --> 12:41.190 Do you know I'm asking you I'm going for part one I'm probably asking you more questions and they probably 12:41.190 --> 12:44.370 will but I'm just trying to hear more about how you're answering. 12:44.370 --> 12:44.950 OK. 12:46.340 --> 12:50.240 Normally par ones will last about seven or eight minutes. 12:50.240 --> 12:52.910 Do you do you do you like to travel. 12:55.210 --> 12:56.610 I love traveling. 12:57.010 --> 13:02.800 I'm kind of a very adventurous guy and I love traveling. 13:02.870 --> 13:05.500 I will almost all go to India by my bike. 13:05.500 --> 13:06.360 I'm a true biker. 13:06.360 --> 13:10.040 You can say probation and parole and probation. 13:10.310 --> 13:17.020 I take a group to the adventurous sites like in the dark and all that stuff and I love traveling. 13:17.080 --> 13:27.920 I like to go to new plan places where I can tell and mark my by my presence OK. 13:28.160 --> 13:33.800 And what are the advantages of what are the advantages of traveling 13:36.810 --> 13:37.250 there. 13:37.350 --> 13:39.310 Many advantages of traveling. 13:39.410 --> 13:42.630 Let me tell you a different country different day. 13:42.640 --> 13:50.760 You'll get to know about the different culture different food you make new friends all day. 13:51.480 --> 13:55.810 Traveling is one of the major part you need to do in your life. 13:55.860 --> 13:57.070 You what. 13:57.690 --> 13:58.460 One life. 13:58.860 --> 14:03.550 And if I get a chance I love to avoid. 14:03.880 --> 14:08.130 So as I said means by traveling me one or more. 14:08.550 --> 14:11.200 Ok good now good answer go away. 14:11.220 --> 14:12.600 Good job with extended going. 14:12.630 --> 14:18.060 The only difference I would say is instead of using the word advantages give me a synonym to like the 14:18.100 --> 14:25.850 been a set of advantages you can say benefits it's advantages you can say positive aspects right. 14:25.870 --> 14:28.400 That's that's the only thing I would change about that answer. 14:28.440 --> 14:32.150 You know in terms of if you're talking about raising the quality even more. 14:32.280 --> 14:36.590 But you gave a good answer came out of the. 14:36.630 --> 14:39.450 No no no you're in the box you're doing a good job you're inside the box. 14:39.460 --> 14:41.160 You haven't you haven't really you haven't done that. 14:41.170 --> 14:42.700 That's why I haven't commented on it. 14:42.700 --> 14:49.210 You've done a good job of answering and extending and staying inside the question. 14:49.410 --> 14:55.230 And that's something because when you're able to do that it shows you have the ability to be direct 14:56.010 --> 14:59.910 and it shows you have the ability to answer that question is being asked to. 15:00.330 --> 15:04.350 And that's something that's very well respected in terms of speaking. 15:04.640 --> 15:10.380 We don't it's not good to detour and go and this and just lose Europe and lose coherence completely 15:10.770 --> 15:13.080 by talking about something that's unrelated to the question. 15:13.080 --> 15:15.590 So you're not having that issue. 15:16.920 --> 15:17.820 All right. 15:17.820 --> 15:22.510 Speaking of traveling would you like to one day fly into outer space. 15:25.290 --> 15:27.370 I love to fly differently. 15:27.390 --> 15:33.930 And then once when the online form was going on too late last time we're DeMoss I think so. 15:34.130 --> 15:37.160 I still remember when you're the only man for that phone. 15:37.400 --> 15:44.000 And if they chose if they love to go to outer space where they can see the thing that I want to see 15:45.080 --> 15:54.740 from outer space looks like an old or I think it might be in it just isn't my dream come true. 15:54.750 --> 15:56.670 OK good. 15:56.700 --> 16:00.360 So that's cool I'll wrap up part number one in terms of part number one. 16:00.360 --> 16:01.370 You're doing pretty good. 16:01.380 --> 16:02.770 I mean you're. 16:03.200 --> 16:05.000 Well of all the different areas. 16:05.000 --> 16:10.230 Do you know you do you're doing very well and everything your weakest areas is the grammar word choice 16:10.230 --> 16:11.640 issues. 16:11.640 --> 16:17.400 Sometimes you forget your articles and sometimes you might choose a different word choose the wrong 16:17.400 --> 16:17.750 word. 16:17.760 --> 16:19.810 But that's that's your. 16:19.890 --> 16:22.200 Everybody has a weak area right. 16:22.230 --> 16:29.000 But in terms of yerd you're answering the question you're being asked extending your answers very well. 16:29.250 --> 16:35.190 The answers are very coherent but you just want to make sure that you do some of the things I mention 16:35.190 --> 16:41.100 in terms of instead of using these short simple sentences use parallelism and put those things together 16:41.670 --> 16:43.250 and just be careful with your word choice. 16:43.260 --> 16:52.440 But so far as the only real weakness here is in terms of word choice and some foundation grammar small 16:52.440 --> 16:54.540 foundation grammar mistakes. 16:55.120 --> 16:56.400 OK. 16:56.600 --> 16:56.890 All right.
