IELTS Speaking Part 1: Interview The first part of the Speaking test is the Interview. You enter the room, see the
examiner, say “Good morning!” and smile. He or she asks to see your passport
and to sit down. If he/she offers to shake your hand – do it, otherwise – don’t.
Your body language is important here, it must show that you are relaxed and
confident. When you are talking, try to make eye contact with the examiner as
much as you can. During the interview the examiner asks you questions about
yourself, your work, studies, parents, brothers/sisters, pets, etc. Your answer
to each question should consist of one or two sentences; try not to answer
with just “Yes” or “No”. After all it’s your English they want to hear.
This is an easy task to prepare for. Read carefully the following questions and
answers, and you will get a very clear picture of what will happen.
