WEBVTT

00:00.200 --> 00:05.090
Is use parallelism put those things together and just be careful with your word choice.

00:05.100 --> 00:14.280
But so far as the only real weakness I hear is in terms of word choice and some foundation grammar small

00:14.280 --> 00:18.020
foundation grammar mistakes.

00:18.440 --> 00:23.460
All right now we're going to move in to part number two.

00:23.460 --> 00:26.330
The paper it builds on the front of you.

00:26.440 --> 00:28.050
Yeah.

00:28.700 --> 00:29.350
OK.

00:29.820 --> 00:30.230
All right.

00:30.240 --> 00:38.720
So what's going to happen is I'm going to show you're going to see a question up here on the screen

00:39.360 --> 00:46.350
and you're going to have one minute to consider the question and then you're going to have two minutes

00:46.350 --> 00:47.310
to speak.

00:47.490 --> 00:48.520
OK.

00:49.140 --> 00:49.570
OK.

00:49.710 --> 00:49.980
All right.

00:49.980 --> 00:51.390
Are you ready.

00:51.910 --> 00:52.870
Yes.

00:53.250 --> 00:53.620
All right.

00:53.630 --> 01:04.050
So let me know when you can see my screen.

01:04.070 --> 01:05.220
Can you see my screen.

01:07.290 --> 01:07.650
Hello.

01:07.660 --> 01:09.710
You can see us when I can see.

01:09.750 --> 01:10.150
OK.

01:10.160 --> 01:11.210
Are you have one minute.

01:11.290 --> 01:11.710
Began

02:17.380 --> 02:18.070
OK.

02:18.280 --> 02:19.790
Your one minute is up.

02:19.900 --> 02:24.090
You now have two minutes to speak and you may begin speaking now.

02:29.410 --> 02:32.240
Friends with whom are living with friends.

02:32.290 --> 02:34.480
No it's completely jumbled.

02:34.490 --> 02:36.000
His name is coupledom.

02:36.000 --> 02:41.560
He's basically from Jammu city and he was actually my.

02:41.630 --> 02:43.350
He's actually my ex-colleague.

02:43.400 --> 02:48.780
So my previous office and he's literally a chatterbox.

02:48.890 --> 02:50.420
He talks a lot.

02:50.420 --> 02:57.680
So I was sharing a room with him where I'm staying right now PD and then he got a chance he stopped

02:58.400 --> 03:04.530
to talk or any kind of topic that topic of politics or any kind of thing he didn't do the for.

03:04.530 --> 03:07.820
So then he could get a chance of all sports or something.

03:07.880 --> 03:08.850
He didn't.

03:09.290 --> 03:17.120
It doesn't make any sense whether you want to listen to the discussion but you keep on talking and you

03:17.270 --> 03:19.580
try to explain everything.

03:19.630 --> 03:24.710
I'm He will also take a piece of his walks and try to explain how things are going with his face and

03:24.710 --> 03:28.490
all other stories you love.

03:28.490 --> 03:29.480
He's very talkative.

03:29.480 --> 03:30.540
He loves to talk.

03:30.540 --> 03:34.590
I don't know why but he's a very nice guy.

03:34.880 --> 03:39.190
And yes I like him very much because I have to say.

03:39.270 --> 03:42.600
But you're also right and I'm staying with him right now.

03:42.950 --> 03:50.820
He's very nice person from the heart and I love to listen to go hear the quality of when he speaks and

03:50.830 --> 03:54.640
it just goes on to talk about any particular topic.

03:54.820 --> 04:07.730
He answers we call that discussion a lot of examples with him which is exactly what you will do you

04:07.870 --> 04:11.550
some of them don't listening this new start.

04:11.960 --> 04:15.970
So if I stay out of London for some.

04:16.150 --> 04:18.840
And he's one of our best friends also.

04:21.440 --> 04:22.040
OK.

04:22.310 --> 04:25.980
I'm so glad you finished on time.

04:26.620 --> 04:29.810
You know you finish on time which is good.

04:30.320 --> 04:38.550
I would say you gave you gave the majority of your time to the second question.

04:38.690 --> 04:41.050
What does he or she usually talk about.

04:43.670 --> 04:48.680
And for that question what did you say exactly that he or she talked about

04:52.170 --> 04:58.510
that kind of thing you think like sport politics is it did you say that.

04:58.570 --> 04:58.910
I don't know.

04:58.930 --> 05:00.190
I don't recall.

05:00.520 --> 05:07.560
Yeah I said that he like any kind of topic like politics and politics including a sports people brain

05:07.780 --> 05:09.960
is kind.

05:10.410 --> 05:11.260
OK.

05:11.590 --> 05:13.250
Good good good.

05:13.260 --> 05:17.350
The only thing I would say is you probably wanted to give a little bit more attention to the third part

05:17.470 --> 05:22.270
in terms of the why you like or dislike.

05:22.430 --> 05:22.780
Right.

05:22.790 --> 05:23.210
That's right.

05:23.210 --> 05:24.260
That's what you want to.

05:24.500 --> 05:35.610
You want to try as much as you can to try to give equal attention to all to all three parts if possible.

05:35.610 --> 05:44.390
This this is very this question part number two is very very similar to what people have to do if they're

05:44.390 --> 05:47.630
doing the general letter for the for the General test.

05:47.870 --> 05:52.250
Like when you do and when you're doing the general letter there are like three parts and you want to

05:52.250 --> 05:52.530
give.

05:52.550 --> 05:59.760
You want to try to give equal attention to each part so that you can have a well developed answer.

05:59.760 --> 06:00.540
All right.

06:01.070 --> 06:08.350
But you did or you did a really good job of being able to carry it all the way from beginning to end.

06:08.420 --> 06:14.390
Your fluency was pretty good but still the same things are part number one in terms of some and what

06:14.410 --> 06:17.230
some foundational grammar mistakes.

06:17.540 --> 06:24.290
And when I send you the recording you can listen to it again to try to pull some of that out.

06:24.860 --> 06:30.760
Your your your pace is a little good some too sometimes you're talking a little fast.

06:30.890 --> 06:31.410
OK.

06:31.460 --> 06:39.590
And if you can slow down just a little bit you're going to have more clarity in terms in terms of your

06:39.590 --> 06:42.090
speed sometimes when you go really fast.

06:42.140 --> 06:51.070
Some of your words run together and at the end of your words start to run together that can that can

06:51.070 --> 06:57.500
affect you know the pronunciation or the clarity of the word as being said OK.

06:57.700 --> 07:02.980
So you just want to be careful with that and sometimes that's difficult depending on what culture or

07:02.980 --> 07:10.210
country you come from because some countries there are languages very very fast and sometimes when you

07:10.210 --> 07:12.190
start speaking English you speak English.

07:12.520 --> 07:17.200
At the close of the same speed as you might speak your native language and sometimes you can't do that

07:18.340 --> 07:18.830
right.

07:18.970 --> 07:31.890
So you know I just want to like whenever I get a chance for like 20 minute do so but all the words that

07:31.900 --> 07:42.510
I don't have focus at that time for one minute for all for that one minute and for last minute for the

07:42.580 --> 07:47.280
for the one minute you just want to write down you want to write down two or three ideas for each question.

07:48.650 --> 07:49.430
OK.

07:49.660 --> 07:52.650
Write two or three or two or three ideas for each question.

07:53.230 --> 08:00.580
That's really what you try and then and then explain the next exam don't say exactly if you if you write.

08:00.610 --> 08:06.260
So basically you're ending up with around 10 to 11 sentences.

08:06.700 --> 08:08.120
Yeah right.

08:08.130 --> 08:13.150
You have you have your introduction sentence.

08:13.690 --> 08:19.110
You know you have your your body and then you have your conclusion.

08:19.120 --> 08:23.300
Basically you're speaking a paragraph right.

08:23.490 --> 08:23.930
Right.

08:23.940 --> 08:25.850
That's basically what you're doing.

08:26.350 --> 08:32.160
That's the way that's the that's the mental construct that you want to think about when you're doing

08:32.160 --> 08:38.160
part number two I'm speaking of body paragraph I've got to give an opening topic sentence that I have

08:38.160 --> 08:46.410
to give you the supporting details and then I have to I have to conclude I'm right.

08:46.440 --> 08:52.890
So that's how you want to think about it when you're for your opening sentence you can always open with

08:52.890 --> 09:01.110
a complex sentence or show quality like you could say something like Even though I have a lot of friends

09:01.400 --> 09:03.760
that love to speak.

09:04.260 --> 09:08.680
The one that I'm want to talk about today is my friend John.

09:09.240 --> 09:09.750
Right.

09:09.750 --> 09:16.500
So you know starting starting out you know in a complex sentence form you know at least you're showing

09:16.500 --> 09:19.930
the ability I can do that time and I could do that type of sentence.

09:22.010 --> 09:24.150
And then the way you described them was fine.

09:24.180 --> 09:27.670
Was just you did a pretty good job it is I think that when you got you didn't get it.

09:27.700 --> 09:36.320
You didn't get a chance to really expand the very last part because you started running short and your

09:36.320 --> 09:38.410
time.

09:38.540 --> 09:39.700
Right.

09:40.190 --> 09:42.330
So I'm going to ask you part three now.

09:43.500 --> 09:46.400
OK.

09:46.950 --> 09:47.230
All right.

09:47.230 --> 09:51.530
So let's talk about let's talk about communication.

09:51.640 --> 09:55.170
Let's talk about communication in society.

09:55.210 --> 09:58.140
Do you think that communication is very important.

10:02.360 --> 10:02.980
Yes.

10:03.200 --> 10:12.410
QUESTION That is very important is what I see and let people know that people don't have that much time

10:13.350 --> 10:14.270
to be.

10:14.390 --> 10:21.860
It used to be earlier in the earlier days I still remember these of my friends and even my parents used

10:21.860 --> 10:27.810
to say used to come out in the evening and tried to keep chit chat and communicate with each other with

10:27.890 --> 10:30.240
there talk with friends and everything.

10:30.260 --> 10:33.810
But now people are getting back into their lives.

10:33.930 --> 10:43.490
They are more able to communicate no deal to discuss and they are getting more depressed into their

10:43.490 --> 10:44.110
life.

10:45.030 --> 10:49.450
So I think communication is one of them for you right.

10:49.930 --> 10:51.430
OK.

10:51.540 --> 10:57.720
And in what situations is it helpful to be communicable to be communicative

11:02.180 --> 11:04.770
explained communicative.

11:05.070 --> 11:12.800
If you communicate clearly with different people if you do go to go on to you can't your friends and

11:12.810 --> 11:20.580
if you communicate to dry if you always try to be into words that don't happen for you then on the phone

11:21.080 --> 11:26.090
if we go to a meeting know that anyone going into office.

11:26.220 --> 11:28.050
So he could express it.

11:28.230 --> 11:34.530
So I think that this kind of communication has been really helpful for that girl.

11:34.800 --> 11:36.280
Well he's going to offer his brain.

11:36.280 --> 11:39.160
He's going to any public forum he can speak a lot.

11:39.210 --> 11:43.060
He can discuss about any topic.

11:43.470 --> 11:44.180
OK.

11:44.670 --> 11:49.740
And how can we improve our communication skills.

11:52.890 --> 11:56.970
There are many options available.

11:56.980 --> 11:57.580
No there is.

11:57.580 --> 11:58.990
You can go online.

11:58.990 --> 12:01.150
You can really know what's out there.

12:01.300 --> 12:06.430
You can use people and the technology is out there.

12:06.530 --> 12:13.540
Is handy with the phone smartphone or improvement in communications is not a big problem.

12:13.600 --> 12:20.360
You can go online if you're facing any kind of problem with it and don't ever get up.

12:20.470 --> 12:22.400
If you know what you're looking.

12:22.400 --> 12:31.210
You can go online you can go to Google and you can choose to buy all you can do e-book like this way

12:31.210 --> 12:33.910
you can improve your communication skills.

12:33.910 --> 12:34.480
All right.

12:34.480 --> 12:35.560
Good answer.

12:35.600 --> 12:39.420
But this is this is out this is what I would do so I would say about re-answer.

12:39.610 --> 12:48.220
You literally said the words you can about seven times right.

12:48.220 --> 12:55.600
I mean you you I mean you literally said I lost Cal but you are you can you can you can you can you

12:55.600 --> 12:59.570
can you can you can you can you can you care.

12:59.760 --> 13:00.360
Right.

13:00.550 --> 13:08.400
So you have to to what you've got to work on that definitely leg.

13:08.560 --> 13:11.050
I have only two days left in most people.

13:11.060 --> 13:14.230
So what can be done to improve that.

13:14.390 --> 13:15.880
Not a lot.

13:15.890 --> 13:20.280
The biggest the biggest thing is what you're doing today so you can be conscious of it.

13:21.600 --> 13:26.610
Right right before before before maybe you are conscious that you were doing those things.

13:28.080 --> 13:28.550
Right.

13:28.650 --> 13:29.120
Right.

13:29.120 --> 13:37.320
So I think I think was was helpful is just you know you know even part one all the way to part three.

13:37.410 --> 13:45.190
It's been the same things in terms of your use of word choice parallelism.

13:45.810 --> 13:54.060
Leaving out articles in terms of age and the you know you've got the same consistent thing.

13:54.120 --> 13:59.370
And sometimes what helps you fix it more than anything else is being made conscious that you're doing

13:59.390 --> 14:06.600
the because a lot of times just practicing at home or just practicing and practicing just you're not

14:06.600 --> 14:11.250
aware of what you're doing in your own mind you sound great.

14:11.840 --> 14:12.270
Right.

14:12.310 --> 14:18.340
But a lot of times you don't realize that you're making some small mistakes here or there.

14:18.470 --> 14:18.880
Right.

14:18.880 --> 14:22.980
So I think overall you're in pretty good shape.

14:22.980 --> 14:24.990
I mean I don't know.

14:25.080 --> 14:28.020
There's not a lot you can do within the next two days.

14:28.020 --> 14:36.690
I will say this I will say this when it comes to grading for the graders you know in general I can't

14:36.690 --> 14:40.950
speak for every grader but I'm talking about the ones that I know and the ones that I've talked to on

14:40.950 --> 14:45.230
a regular basis you know they are there.

14:45.240 --> 14:51.680
What impressed is the part that impresses them more than any other part as part number two.

14:51.930 --> 14:55.300
You know part number one is really fairly straightforward.

14:55.590 --> 14:59.620
Part Number three a similar part number one except for the questions are deeper.

14:59.760 --> 15:03.050
And that's that's why you give a longer more extended answer.

15:03.270 --> 15:09.300
But part number two is where you're going to be where the where where are you going to be very impressive

15:09.960 --> 15:11.630
to a greater.

15:11.940 --> 15:15.430
Because part number two is where they leave you alone.

15:15.480 --> 15:19.670
You really are demonstrating your command of the language.

15:19.950 --> 15:25.500
And so if anything I would definitely give a lot of attention over the next two days to part number

15:25.500 --> 15:34.080
two to make sure that you are really able to give a strong part number two because normally after Part

15:34.080 --> 15:41.310
Number one the greater might be on the fence like well maybe six five maybe seven or maybe seven or

15:41.310 --> 15:42.700
75.

15:42.750 --> 15:46.750
They may be on the fence after part after part number two.

15:46.830 --> 15:49.390
They have a good idea of which direction they may go.

15:51.810 --> 15:52.190
Right.

15:52.230 --> 15:57.090
So part number two really is where you show your stuff

16:00.200 --> 16:00.860
OK.

16:01.160 --> 16:02.510
OK.

16:02.930 --> 16:03.940
All right.

16:04.010 --> 16:09.740
In general I think if I were if I were looking at it from a scoring standpoint like I said your weakest

16:09.740 --> 16:16.480
areas are grammar I think of you go to your speaking test and you do it and you have a bad day.

16:16.490 --> 16:19.470
You'll still get something like 6.5.

16:19.490 --> 16:24.190
I think if you go into your speaking test and you have a great day you can get a seven five.

16:24.230 --> 16:31.690
Right so that's the range that you're seeing at your worse and at your best.

16:32.230 --> 16:33.690
But my best day.

16:33.740 --> 16:35.450
Yeah you just need to be your best.

16:35.530 --> 16:40.490
I mean the other thing I think you need to work on is making sure that you paraphrase the language and

16:40.490 --> 16:42.690
the question right.

16:42.740 --> 16:47.690
You know like for example when I say why is this important and you say this is important because try

16:47.690 --> 16:53.960
to paraphrase instead of saying important you can say this is highly valued because this is significant

16:53.960 --> 16:54.980
because.

16:55.160 --> 16:55.630
Right.

16:55.690 --> 17:02.000
I mean like I said those are the kind of things that a speaker that gets a 8 and the nine are able to

17:02.000 --> 17:07.750
do this somebody gets to six or seven are not able to do right.

17:07.910 --> 17:09.340
It's already in my mind.

17:09.380 --> 17:14.370
I mean to paraphrase has past that was the focus.

17:14.940 --> 17:16.870
I don't think at that point.

17:17.030 --> 17:23.050
Well the way the way that you fix that is by when you're practicing.

17:23.640 --> 17:29.790
Sometimes this is what you have to do just what to think about when when you're practicing.

17:29.930 --> 17:33.740
Sometimes practicing is not about answering the question.

17:33.740 --> 17:37.420
Sometimes practicing is about working on skills.

17:37.620 --> 17:38.410
Right.

17:38.590 --> 17:38.920
Right.

17:38.920 --> 17:45.220
So when you're sometimes when you're practicing part one questions or part three questions you might

17:45.220 --> 17:52.380
say OK when I answer these questions for the next 15 minutes I'm actually just going to work on paraphrasing.

17:53.080 --> 17:53.500
Right.

17:53.560 --> 17:57.940
I'm not going to work on you know what I'm saying.

17:58.120 --> 18:02.420
I'm going to work on how I'm saying it and you might.

18:02.560 --> 18:09.270
And so if you just if you just practice using paraphrasing it will become more normal for you.

18:09.440 --> 18:09.710
Right.

18:09.730 --> 18:16.990
But you have to you have to dedicate this specific time to working on that specific skill.

18:17.040 --> 18:17.500
Right.

18:17.530 --> 18:19.610
And if you are or saying OK.

18:19.690 --> 18:26.740
And when I ask when and when I am when I answer these questions I'm going to work on the specific skill

18:26.770 --> 18:34.310
of parallelism right or when I when I answer these questions for the next five minutes I'm going to

18:34.310 --> 18:40.550
really make sure I hit all my articles right.

18:40.610 --> 18:46.330
Sometimes you have to do skittled practice not just what am I saying.

18:46.760 --> 18:47.500
Right.

18:47.550 --> 18:50.330
You understand your answer.

18:50.510 --> 18:50.960
OK.

18:51.020 --> 18:51.390
All right.

18:51.440 --> 18:53.860
So I hope this is very helpful for you.

18:54.150 --> 18:59.490
And once once once I get it produced and everything I'll send you a link Hopefully I can do it later

18:59.490 --> 19:00.220
today.

19:00.510 --> 19:04.930
And so you can listen to it again and I wish you luck.

19:04.950 --> 19:08.920
And do you have any final questions before I sign off.

19:09.130 --> 19:09.690
No.

19:10.210 --> 19:12.370
I think it was here.

19:12.400 --> 19:13.700
Thanks for your time.

19:13.810 --> 19:14.180
OK.

19:14.200 --> 19:17.460
I think for me I read that you're more than welcome have a great day.

19:18.350 --> 19:19.160
You do better.

19:19.190 --> 19:19.860
Thank you.

19:19.860 --> 19:20.590
Bye.
