IELTS Speaking Part 1 LANGUAGES

LANGUAGES

  1. Do you like learning languages?
    Yes, I do like learning languages. I like English as a second language more than my native tongue and spend a lot of time practicing on it. I have also started to learn French recently.
  2. How did you learn the languages that you know?
    Option 1: I think the most effective way to learn a language is to practice more with a native speaker. By doing this, you can improve both listening and oral skills simultaneously; you will be fluent in this language. Besides, I also do general readings in my spare time and keep a journal in English.
    Option 2: I think the best way to learn a language is through interaction with a native speaker. By doing this, one can improve their oral as well listening skills. Apart from this, I also read the regional language in my spare time.
  3. Why do people learn more than one language?
    Option 1: I think people learn as many languages as they can because language is a necessary tool to have conversations with foreign people and learn their cultures. Understanding many languages helps us to open the door of many more opportunities in this world.
    Option 2: I think people learn more and more language because language is a necessary tool to interact with foreign people and learn their culture. Understanding many languages opens doors for many opportunities in the world.
  4. Do you think that all children should learn foreign languages at school?
    Yes, I think that kids are better at learning a second or more foreign language at school. They learn things fast at a young age, and I’m certain that a mastery of other languages pays well for kids when they go into the adult world in the future.
  5. Do you think that English is difficult to learn?
    I think it is not only English. It is really hard to really master a language and learn all the cultural and social meanings in the conversation or messages. And every language has their own language pattern. I think most language learners can grasp the key structure and vocabulary but it takes time and a lot of effort to really master it.
  6. Do you think learning languages is important?
    I think not only me but English has surely become an important language for communication. With globalization taking place at such an incredible speed, to be able to interact with others, English has become an essential language. In my case, I am a blogger. So, I want more and more people to be able to understand what I am trying to tell.
  7. How long have you been learning English?
    Option 1: I have studied in an English medium school since my childhood. So, I guess it has been now 18 years that I have learnt and read English.
    Option 2: I have studied in a regional school where the books were in regional language. But, English was still taught to us. So, technically I have been learning English for past 18 years but the thorough understanding of English has come to me only while preparing for IELTS.
