IELTS on April 8th
- Thread starter ravitejab4u
- Start date
P1 - what do you do for living? Why did you choose this profession? Will you continue doing this work in the future? Do you like visitors? Do you like to visit or host?
P2 - short time period work that you would like to do: where, why, how did you find out about this?
P3 - why do people travel to other countries? what are the common short term jobs? why do some people do not like to other countries? what do you think about globalization and migration of workforce?
I was closely monitoring the questions that others got in other regions. They were not even close (e.g. Pakistan, India, Oz, Nigeria). So, not too sure if this will be helpful in any way...
Good luck all!

For the writing I have been getting tuition so I shall share some tips.
Introduction - make sure you have a clear thesis statement, answer the question and give an overview of the points you are going to talk about below.
Paragraph 1 - "topic sentence" - introduce the ideas you get going to talk about i.e. There are 2 main issues(points etc) which are STATE HIGH LEVEL and STATE HIGH LEVEL. Firstly, blah blah blah. Secondly, blah blah blah.
Paragraph 2 - same format
Paragraph 3 - same format
In conclusion, (If you have time do a conclusion of the conclusion)
Make sure that your blah blah in the paragraphs supports your topic sentence and the topic sentence supports your thesis statement/intro.
One tip if you are doing disadvantges/advantages and you lean towards one in a 3 paragprah sitation I would join up the two back to which are your stance i.e.
intro
disadvantage
advantage
advantage
ad
dis
dis
gives it a more consistent flow.

Just finished the speaking test, and here goes:
1. Do you work or study? I said work. What work? Is it stressful? How do you relax after work?
2. Cue Card: Describe a new shop that came up in your town recently: Where it is? What does it sell? Who are the customers? Will it do good business?
3. Are there big malls in your hometown? Do people prefer bigger or smaller shops? Why? Opinion about consumerism.
I think I spoke too much, the interviewer reminded me twice that my time was up. I assume that is bad for my score.
Hope the above helps!!
