IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic & Questions: Study with Band 9 Model Answers

1. Describe your education

I graduated from High School for the Gifted and headed to the International University because I think 2-year studying at this university would prepare me well, especially my English before I finish another 2 years abroad at the University of Nottingham.

2. What is your area of specialization?

I’m currently taking Plant Biotechnology. I’ve committed to Biology since I was in high school and I think a shift to a field where Biology and advanced technology are associated would be interesting and promising for my future career.

3. Why did you choose to study that major?

There are many reasons for my choice. As I’ve already explained about my long-term interest in Biology and plants, another reason could be because of science itself, since I’ve found my personalities have changed in a positive way, you know, like I’ve become more patient and skillful.

4. Do you like your major? (Why?/Why not?)

To tell you the truth it was quite challenging for me at first, because the university’s requirements are especially high and you know science itself highly demands skillful hands and curious mind. However, as time goes by I think I’m getting  used to the amount of pressure and actually enjoy my study.

5. What kind of school did you go to as a child?

Well just like most of the pupils, I spent five years at the government’s primary school. It took me only 10 minutes to go to school and I had my parents take me to school everyday. Classes start at 7 in the morning and end at 5 in the evening.

6. What was your favourite subject as a child?

To tell you the truth, I was quite good at Literature back then. Thus I always tried my best to

get high score and impressed my teacher.

7. (Possibly) Are you looking forward to working?

To be honest, working is actually my plan B just in case I need to make ends meet. In the future I think my higher degree is my priority.
