4. Talk about your favorite food – IELTS Speaking

1)History was my favourite subject in my academic year and I have learned so many things from the history books I read and learned from teachers related to history and they were so interesting that I later did my graduation majoring History.

Learning about the past history is something that gives us real knowledge about our country, the world and about the human race. I read History in my grade 7 and found it very interesting. This subject taught us about the past of your world, how the social and economic condition was and how the world has been shaped by the different events throughout the time. After that, I become so interested in this subject that I started reading books on History from different writers. There is a famous saying that "to shape the future you must know the past" and history teaches us that. I had been lucky to have some great teachers who have a tremendous way of explaining the topics of History. To me, other subjects like literature and Math were also interesting but I felt a different passion on History.

After I finished my school, I took History as my major and that has greatly influenced me the way I look at the world and to the past and future. Reading and learning history was like travelling through time and generations that excited me so much.

2)Would your students benefit from participation in a study group? Are you too busy to organize and supervise study groups for students in your courses? I’m guessing the answer to both questions is yes. If so, here are some ways teachers can encourage and support student efforts to study together without being “in charge” of the study groups.

Promote study groups – First, include a list of reasons why students should join study groups in the syllabus or on the course website. Maybe there’s a short podcast available in which you talk about the usefulness of study groups. Better yet, if you’ve got some students who studied together in a previous course, ask them to make some comments about their experiences. Second, talk regularly in class about study groups. You can repeat all the benefits, suggest activities that involve good group study strategies, or propose some things they could study together (like problems they could solve, questions they could discuss). You also can solicit feedback from study groups in class or mention content you discussed with a group during office hours.

Make study groups an option – Encourage students to organize their own groups, but offer to help with the process. Nudge them with reminders, such as “Send me an email if you’re interested in being part of a study group.” Have study groups “register” their members, and then report on meeting times and activities. Suggest study activities for the group (ideas like those offered in the next item). Invite the group to meet with you during office hours or to send questions electronically. Offer registered study groups that report regular meetings a bonus point incentive depending on the average of their individual test grades. Let all students know that joining a study group is an option throughout the course.

Demonstrate the value of a study group – Too often when students study together, it’s pretty much a waste of time. If they’re reviewing for a test, they talk about how it can’t possibly be that hard and thereby relieve themselves of the need to study. Or they “go over” their notes, reading what they’ve written but never with any discussion. Group studying is too often accompanied by eating, texting, and regular side conversations.

In order for students to get the most value from their study sessions, you’ll need to help them come up with a different set of strategies. You can do so by holding a review session and asking students to form potential study groups (it’s up to them if they want to meet as a group more often). Give the groups tasks like these: 1) For three minutes everybody reviews their notes and lists five things they think will be on the test and then for five minutes they share lists and create a group list of the items most often mentioned. During the exam debrief, students revisit their list of things they expected to see on the exam. Were those things on the exam? 2) Everybody takes three minutes and writes a question about some content they don’t understand or wish they understood better. The group devotes a specified amount of time to each question, looking for relevant content in their notes and the text. 3) The group has 20 minutes to make one crib sheet that everyone in that group can use during the exam.

Offer proof that study groups improve performance – Compare the scores, points, or grades of those working in study groups with those who aren’t. These are data which should be collected across several sections of the course.

Define study groups broadly – Students tend to think of study groups for exam preparation, but that isn’t the only kind of student collaboration that promotes learning. If there are regularly assigned readings for the course, students can get together to discuss the reading. Again you might let them do this first in class with a good set of prompts so they see how dialogue can enrich and deepen their understanding of the assigned material. Readings are easily discussed in virtual environments, which means the group doesn’t have to find a time when everybody can meet. If various writing assignments are required in the course, students can form peer editing groups. Rubrics, checklists, and prompts can help them get beyond superficial feedback (“you might need a comma here”) to the kind of helpful critique that improves the writing.

I usually get up at 5:30 in the morning. After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I do morning exercises for fifteen minutes. Then I have breakfast with Mum and Dad at 6:15 and leave home for school at 6:30. My classes start at 7:00 and end at 11:15. After that I go home, and have lunch with my family at 12:00. After lunch I usually have a short rest. I study my lessons , read books, and do homework from 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. I often play badminton with my friends on the ground at 4:30. I come back home and have dinner at 6:00 p.m. After dinner, I often watch the news on TV for thirty minutes. Then I prepare for the new lessons and go to bed at 10:30 p.m

“The person that springs to my mind immediately is my Mother. I think I should start by saying that being given birth is the most wonderful thing that’ve ever happened on earth. She is the one i can’t ever thank enough
You probably heard it once that Vietnamese people have a very strong family base. So I’m gonna portrait my Mom and my relationship with her so you gonna picture it in a more vivid way. Every single memory with her comes to me with an absolute clarity. I could bring back all details of her, in retrospect, when I was a little child, my Mom was always there right behind me, just to make sure I was alright at all times. She took an around-the-clock care for me when I started babbling, started learning to walk, and when started riding a bike. I mean, every moments in my childhood were entangled with her.
And when I grow older, I become more conscious of what Mom have done to me. She always thinks of me ahead of herself, she could do whatever it takes no matter how tough it is just to bring me the best: a very well-loved and well-educated upbringing. I was like a little bird being protected in my Mom’s nest.
And the thing is, you know there were always some trivial arguments that are definitely unavoidable. Because you know, my childish characteristics always make me throw a tantrum at a ridiculous thing, but she always stays calm, she holds me tight asks me what happened and suggests me what could be done to solve my problems , she is the most active listener in the whole world.
It is said that House is just a building, but home is about our feelings. so that’s the point i’m trying to make during my speech. So if I still have more time, i would probably tell you more in-depth about some memorable events in my childhood with my Mom and my family”

If you are a Vietnamese then it’s a pity when you haven’t been to Halong Bay once in your life. Last year I went on a trip to Ha Long with my family. To make the trip more interesting, my dad drove a family car himself to bring everyone here. It was a beautiful day. The blue sky and white clouds made me even more nervous. We sat in the car and sang songs together. Half a day, we arrived. We rent a room at Muong Thanh hotel. This is a 5 star hotel so the service is extremely good. The staff here welcomed us very enthusiasally. We rent two rooms. A room for my parents and a room for me and my brother. Our room has full TV, air conditioner, refrigerator, … very comfortable. After checking in, we went out to enjoy a bit of the sea breeze. The air here is very fresh and cool. We rented a tram to take a tour of the place. Ha Long’s scenery made us all in awe. Looking back from a distance, Ha Long is a majes picture. There are many islands and caves here. There are Dau Go cave, Thien Cung cave, Trong Mai island … and rich vegetation. Together we watched the long sand beaches and ships peeked out in the distance. We passed the shops that were sparkling with lights. When we were tired, we returned to the hotel for dinner and rest to prepare for the next day with exciting experiences. The next morning I got up early to catch the dawn. Today my brother and I had fun at the water park playing adventure. My trip to Ha Long was very fun and enjoyable. We have a lot of commemorative photos here. I will be back here this summer.
