A decision before an answer
- An examiner asks what you enjoy after school. “Yes” is grammatical, but it does not answer this question.
- Your goal: Answer personal-information questions with brief development (Part 1).
Read the relationship
- Part 1 asks personal information, routines and preferences. Answer the question directly, then add one relevant detail.
- Discuss visual prompts, express preferences and respond to a partner (Part 2).
Best response to “What do you do after school?”
It directly answers what you do.
Use the defining rule
- Part 2 uses visual prompts for a discussion with another candidate. Give a preference and a reason.
- Discuss visual prompts, express preferences and respond to a partner (Part 2).
Best invitation to a partner:
It creates space for the other candidate.
Check the conditions
- Listen to your partner and respond. Invite a view with “What do you think?” rather than delivering a memorised speech.
- Discuss visual prompts, express preferences and respond to a partner (Part 2).
A: “I like reading because I can relax. What about you?” B: “I prefer sport. Reading is good, but I like being outside.” Both give a view, explain it and respond to a partner. There is no single correct hobby.
Give a reason with “____”.
Because introduces why you hold a preference.
Apply the task format
- Teachers observe grammar/vocabulary, pronunciation and interactive communication, with global achievement. Use actual paired speaking, not a written replacement.
- Discuss visual prompts, express preferences and respond to a partner (Part 2).
Speaking is not a speed contest. Clear meaning and interaction matter more than producing a long unbroken answer.
