IELTS Coaching

Video response transcript

Hello, everyone!Welcome to my first recording of, well, the IELTS test. Well, I’ll try to, you know, start from this very first recording, trying to record myself answering an IELTS topic, with natural setting, I’m not really prepared for… I don’t really have a script, I just talk as things come to my mid. So, no preparation, no anything, due to, you know, the natural speech, would look like. So, today I’ll talk about the topic I’ve written in the ABOUT section of the youtube video, it’s about describing my favorite animal. I don’t have the paper here, so there’s a screen up there showing me questions. So, I’ll have one minute to prepare for this topic, and two minutes to talk on this. But I’ll be very boring if you watch me to preparing for one minute, absolutely frightening, like this, not good at all, not healthy at all. But, so and so, I should start now. I’ll read the question first in case you don’t know where to find the question about section.

Describe your favourite animal.

• What kind of animal is it.
• Describe it briefly.

OK, so, let’s start. I’ll try and time myself on my cell phone here, oh it’s that now. OK. So, you’ve asked me about the animal I like. 

It is pretty easy for me. I often like lions, because it’s a symbol of power and strength. The embodiment of power, of pride, they are often called Kings of savanna, because the savanna is the natural habitat of lions.

Describe this lion briefly

Well, lions are mammals, they are pretty strong, and fast, and the biggest difference between male and female lions is that male lions have longer furs, and they are bigger in size. About the behaviors of female and male lions, females hunt for prey, for food, for whole pride, while male lions just stay at home, keep watching their territory, and safeguard the whole pride. So, they essentially do nothing except protecting their pride, the group of lions, a family.

Why do you like this animal

Well, it’s partly in the answer I provided before, I like the animal at first because it looks majestic, and, second, it has a lot of meaning attached to it: in all cultures lions symbolized pride and power, and royalty, ect. So I like the animal, especially when I was small, I watched the movie Lion King, and it was quite awesome, Lion King stick till now.That’s my answer. Well, it’ exactly one minute fifty eight seconds. I’ve talked for two minutes, and two minutes up. I hope that it may be of some use to somebody, and this is my first recording, and there are lots of mistakes here. Well, that’s it. If you want me to do a particular IELTS test topic, than please comment below. Well, see you again. I’ll try to do it if I have enough free time.
