3 Useful Phrases for the IELTS Speaking Test To Start Using!

 The IELTS Speaking test may seem challenging at first, but with proper preparation, achieving a band score of 8 to 9 is definitely within your reach. However, if you approach the interview unprepared, it is unlikely that you will meet your desired band score.

The IELTS Speaking test typically lasts for around 11-14 minutes and aims to evaluate your pronunciation, fluency, grammar, and vocabulary. It consists of three parts and follows an informal interview format between the examiner and the candidate.

What are Some Useful IELTS Interview Expressions?

1. Opening Statements
How you open your statements is your first opportunity to impress the examiner. Making a good first impression will boost your chance of getting a high band score!

Examples:

Today, I’d like to share with you about…
In this talk, I’m going to tell you how…
I want to tell you about…

2. Closing statements
The manner in which you end your statements plays a vital role in the IELTS speaking test too. It shows how fluent you are and how coherent your responses are!

Examples:

In conclusion…
To sum up…
To summarize

3. Beginning the Main Body of Your Speech 
Once you are asked a question or given a topic to talk about, be creative and use phrases and expressions that the examiner will find appealing!

Examples:

 First and foremost….
And why do I find it so appealing? It is, after all…
To begin with… 

While it is not advisable to memorize your answers word for word for the IELTS Speaking test, there are certain foundational elements that you can familiarize yourself with. Memorizing these elements will help you structure your responses effectively without sounding robotic or rehearsed, which is something you should avoid at all costs.

 With my experience in preparing thousands of students globally, you'll become fluent at expressing your ideas naturally in no time.

3 Useful Phrases for the IELTS Speaking Test To Start Using!

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れ。
気温は22℃。少し暖かいです。

昨日、おとといと雨が降っていました。
今日は晴れているので、とても気持ちがいいです。

今日は家の近くにある、水族館と、この地域で有名な鮭、サーモンについて話します。

サケのふるさと 千歳水族館は、サケや北方地域のさまざまな淡水魚を観察できる水族館です。千歳川の隣にあるので、水族館からガラス越しに千歳川の水中をのぞけことができます。

この日本初の「水中観察室」は、9〜10月になると遡上(そじょう)、川の流れと反対に上ってくることですね、してきたサケでガラスの窓が埋め尽くされ、冬には産卵の瞬間を見られることもあるそうです。

私も、北海道に引っ越してきた時に行きましたが、とてもおもしろい水族館でした。大きくはないですが、見れるものがたくさんあります。そしてやはり、川の水の中をガラス越しに見ることができるのは本当にとてもおもしろいです。魚が泳いでいる本当の姿を見ることができます。

サケは産卵の時期になると、自分が生まれた川へ戻ってきます。サケが、進化のなかで海で成長するようになりました。エサの豊富な海で成長します。そして、海よりも安全な場所で産卵するために、生まれた川へ戻ってきます。

生まれた川がどうしてわかると思いますか？
これは、川で生活している時に、その川のにおいをおぼえているからだそうです。

サケは成長する時は海へ出ます。サケによっては、日本からロシア、カナダの海を通ってアラスカの方まで行き、3.4年後に戻って来るそうです。

生まれた川は「におい」で判断しているらしいことが分かっています。ですが、においだけをたよりに何千㎞も泳ぐことは当然、難しいと思います。

渡り鳥は太陽や星の位置で場所をとらえているといわれますが、サケに関しては、いまだに謎が多いそうです。


ということで、今回はサケと水族館について話しました。
今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
