It was sunny today. This afternoon, I learned a new story set in Ghana, Africa, about a boy named Kojo. His family is very poor, and after his father died, Kojo helps his mother make ends meet. He gets the idea to take out a small loan to buy a hen. He cares for the hen, which lays eggs that he sells at the market. With the profits, he repays the loan, buys more hens, and gradually grows his business. Over time, he secures more loans, eventually enabling him to attend college. The lessons learned from building his poultry business help his family prosper, and his story inspires others in his community. Overall, it's an inspiring, encouraging, and deeply optimistic tale. However, I suspect it's fictional. In reality, the mention of a loan would immediately raise red flags for me. Does this make me pessimistic? Perhaps, but stories like this often strike me as simply too good to be true.

Being able to talk on a wide variety of topics is really helpful for getting a higher mark on the IELTS test. In this podcast I will help you to form opinions and ideas for Speaking Part 3 and Writing Part 2. You can also book a private lesson with me on my profile. Hope to see you in a lesson soon!
