In phase 2
Use the one-minute preparation time to make notes or bullet points before you make
your short presentation. You can then look at the card and use these ideas as a guide.
This gives your talk a good structure, and leads you naturally to sign-post your talk, e.g.
“first…”, “next…”, “another thing…” and so on.
It is useful to conclude by referring back to one of the main points you made earlier, e.g.
“as I said before”, “the main thing…”.
In phase 3
This is your chance to demonstrate the best you can do. Answer the questions as fully
and fluently as possible, always giving reasons for your opinions.
Use a variety of words to express opinion, e.g.
“in my opinion…”, “I think…”, “as I see
it
…” and so on.
If you run out of ideas or you simply do not have an opinion, a useful tactic is to
present the opinion of someone you know well such as a family member or a close
friend. For example,
“I’m not keen on sport but my brother’s crazy about it. He…”
Good luck in your speaking test!
