scores a band nine in speaking part one she is confident fluent and gives a good amount of detail like her you can expect that the examiner will ask you some introductory questions asking you for your identification your name where you live whether you work or go to school these are very popular questions The Examiner asks these so that you feel comfortable and confident for the ensuing parts of the exam now for the general topics of part one you should expect topics that all people participate in such as in this case Hobbies family and the environment also you can expect that the general questions for part one may be on one topic only such as the environment at other times The Examiner might ask a variety of topics as in this case with not only the the environment but also about hobbies and the family this can happen for two reasons one if the examiner feels that some of your answers are rehearsed or you're using templates like I have several Hobbies including sports music but the one I would like to talk about is reading then the examiner might switch up the questions and ask you about family now in another case The Examiner might ask you on a variety of topics if they feel you have very good English and they're exploring how well you can speak on different concepts in either case don't use templates examiners don't like them and they will not get you good scores do not expect to guess the topics of part one this is simply impossible there are hundreds of different general concepts that the examiner can choose from and within those there are hundreds of different questions such as talking about the environment we could talk about pollution about visiting nature about recycling there are so many topics you simply cannot try to memorize answers for all of these so instead focus on structure and strategy nevertheless it is extremely important that you familiarize yourself with as many different General topics and as much vocabulary as possible for this practice is key our premium IELTS course has over a hundred different speaking interviews with over 50 different topics and question types be sure to join and learn as much as possible now on to part
