Hello, everyone.
I'm Miriam, and my name is Rory, and we are the hosts of the IELTS speaking for Success podcast, the podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills.
Along the way, we started this podcast to give you a look at how a native english speaker would answer some of the most common IELTS speaking questions.
I ask Rory questions, and he gives answers using vocabulary and grammar for a high score.
Ben?
Nine score.
Rory, are you watching the clock?
No, I'm not that bored.
We're gonna talk about boredom and getting bored today.
Okay, stay tuned, Rory.
We'll start off with speaking part two.
Oh, again?
Yes, again.
And could you tell the world what happens in speaking part two?
Of course.
So, in speaking part two, the examiner will give you a piece of paper and explain that you have 1 minute to prepare some notes or some thoughts about your topic, and then at the end of the minute, you will be asked to speak for one to two minutes about your topic.
I'm gonna give Rory a topic which says, describe an experience when you were with people and you got bored.
I chose this topic because one of our listeners, Irina, hello, if you're listening, asked us to talk about boredom.
So here you are.
Erina, we're gonna talk about boredom.
