You should say:
- What it is
- Where and how you want to learn it
- Why you want to learn it
- And explain if it will be difficult to learn it
Part 2 Cue Card Sample Answer (Band 7, 8 to 9):
- A subject I would really like to study in the future would be French
- There are many reasons for this.
- The first and foremost reason is that I want to visit my uncle and aunt who lives in France.
- They told me that if you wish to communicate with Franco phones it is very essential to know some French.
- There, very few people know English.
- My uncle has also offered to sponsor my fees for higher education if I decide to study in France.
- In that case, if I choose to study there, then learning French would be a necessity.
- Another reason is that my parents are planning to move to Canada.
- So, my knowledge of French would come very handy there.
- It might help me in getting a job.
- French is spoken in 33 countries.
- It is the second most commonly taught language after English.
- Even in my country, if I know a foreign language, then I can get a good job in the tourism industry.
- Everyone knows, tourists from all parts of the world flock to India.
- Those who are multilingual definitely stand a better chance in the job market.
- Fortunately, a language training Institute by the name of Aroma Language Centre has opened in my home town.
- They teach French, German and Italian and their next batch is starting soon.
- I would enroll in that batch.
- Two of my friends have started learning French there.
- They told me that the teacher is very nice.
- They also told me that French is a difficult language to learn because achieving the perfect pronunciation of the words for non-native speakers requires a lot of practice.
- But still, I am hoping that the basics would be easy to learn and I’ll plan for advanced French after an year or so.
Speaking Part 3 Follow-up Questions & Answers based on the Cue Card:
What are the differences between online learning and offline learning?
I think there are many differences between online learning and offline learning. Firstly, online is more flexible and convenient whereas for offline a person has to be present in a traditional classroom. Secondly one can study online courses at their own pace whereas for classroom learning one has to progress with a group.
Do you prefer to study alone or with a group of people?
I can learn both ways! Studying alone lets me focus on what I need, but group study can be fun and helpful for explaining things to each other. It really depends on the topic.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of learning in a group?
Group work can be great for sharing ideas and understanding different perspectives. It can also keep you motivated! But sometimes groups get sidetracked or not everyone contributes equally.
What subjects do most young people prefer to learn? Why?
A lot of young people enjoy subjects they find interesting or relevant to their future. For example, in India students love science because most of them want to become a doctor or an engineer when they grow up.
What is more important when choosing a job, high salary or interest?
Well this is a tough one! A high salary is nice, but if you hate your job, it won’t be satisfying. I think finding a balance between something you enjoy and that pays you enough is important.
What do you think about face-to-face learning with teachers?
I think face-to-face learning with teachers is valuable. Teachers can explain things clearly, answer questions on the spot, and keep you on track. It’s a great way to learn and interact with others.
