This is an aisle speaking simulation.
Self practice test seven.
Let's get started.
Please pause the video right here so you can review the instructions.
These instructions are really, really important so that you understand how to do this self practice
test.
I'm going to go ahead and get started right away with part one of the three parts of the speaking test,
this self assessment.
And this speaking test goes over all three parts.
Make sure that you truly, truly simulate the exam record yourself so that you can later on listen and
do a self assessment.
Let's begin.
Speaking Part one.
Make sure right now that you cover your screen so that you cannot see the questions.
Use a blue piece of paper or a black piece of paper or a manila folder.
Cover your screen because on the real exam you cannot see the questions.
I will ask a question and pause for 5 seconds before I ask the next question.
Of course, you cannot answer within 5 seconds.
So what you want to do is press the spacebar to pause the video, and then after pause after after pausing
the video, immediately give you a response, then afterwards, press the spacebar so you can begin
again.
Let's go ahead and get started.

Who gave you your name?
Is your name very popular in your country?
Let's now talk about your studying.

Has there been anything unexpected about your studies?
Let's talk about your residential area.

Let's now move forward and talk about challenges.
Tell me about the type of challenges that children face.
What lessons do children need to learn from challenges?

Do you think that parents allow their children to go through enough challenges?
Let's now talk about water sports.

Why are or aren't water sports popular in your country?
Did you like to play in the water as a child?
Let's now move forward and talk about technology.
Do you use any gadgets on a regular basis?
How often do you use the Internet?
Have you ever taken a course to improve your technology skills?
Okay.
We're now going to move forward with part two.
You can now uncover your screen for part two because you need to see the topic card.
You'll be given one minute to review the topic card and take notes.
Afterwards, you'll have 2 minutes to deliver your response.
Let's begin.

Please say what device you started using while you started using this device.
How easy or difficult it was to use and how helpful this device was to you.
You have one minute to prepare.
Please stop.
You now have 2 minutes to deliver your response.
You may begin speaking now.
Please stop.
Your 2 minutes are up.
We're now going to move forward with part three.
So now cover your screen again so that you cannot see the questions.
I will ask a question.
Pause for 5 seconds before asking the next question.
You need to make sure that you press the spacebar to pause, immediately deliver your response, and
then when you finish, press the spacebar again so you can hear the next question.
Let's begin.
So I have some follow up questions for you about technology.
First, what modern technological devices are most common in your country?

Do you think that people rely too much on technology?
Next.
Does technology help workers or make their lives more difficult?
Finally, how will technology change our lives 10 to 20 years from now?
All right.
So I hope that you did a great job on your self practice test.
Make sure that you listen to the recording of yourself.
Do your self assessment, upload your recording into the otter program.
There's the website right there for the outer website.
Outer.
I make sure you examine your grammar and your lexical ability by looking at the auto transcription.
It's also a great idea.
Once you have structured a structured and put your transcription into the right order, you can also
upload it into the Grammarly program and have that check your grammar and lexical ability that you were
using.
Also, Otter is great for being able to look at your pronunciation, but really look and see if you're
hitting what what box are you sitting in on each part of that rubric?
Make sure that you're keeping comments on your performance in each of these four areas so that you can
track your improvement.
Also review the band's brand descriptors.
If you want that nine score, look and see what you need for a nine.
Thank you so much for joining me for this practice test.
I look forward to seeing you in the next test.
