What speaking ability does a score of IELTS Band 7.5 represent? • Watch this Speaking test sample, where Aashish from Nepal talks about 'Work, friends, food and cooking'. • Here's why this performance was given a Band 7.5: • This test taker speaks fluently and he engages with the questions without any obvious effort. There is only occasional hesitation, repetition and self-correction, which is mostly content-related and only rarely to search for language. His relaxed delivery is supported by his flexible use of markers (I am both; basically; as well as; every now and then; that would be French). • His vocabulary is sufficient for him to engage with a variety of topics and he demonstrates an ability to use idioms and collocations with some sense of style and skill. However, he makes a number of inappropriate vocabulary choices (all over the place; that’s not just my cup of tea; someone to confront and talk to; I haven’t got a chance), which restrict his rating on this criterion. • He has a wide range of grammatical structures at his disposal and the majority of sentences are error-free. Even when errors do very occasionally occur (I work part-time as well as a student; it just does not come into me), they do not detract at all from meaning. • He uses a wide range of pronunciation features and is able to use stress and intonation effectively. There are just a few lapses and very occasionally sounds are poorly formed (bot for ‘both’; vent for ‘went’), but overall, his accent has only minimal effect on intelligibility. • The test taker’s vocabulary is not as strong as other features of his performance and restricts his rating to Band 7.5 • If you're looking to book your IELTS test, you can do so at https://my.ieltsessentials.com/IELTS?... • If you want to keep preparing for your test, check out the other videos on this channel, or head to IELTS Prepare: https://ielts.idp.com/prepare?utm_sou... • 0:00 - Do you work or are you a student? • 0:08 - What work do you do? • 0:18 - Do you meet interesting people in your country? • • 0:27 - How long have you been doing this sort of work? • • 1:18 - What did you do the last time you met your friends? • 1:35 - In what ways are your friends important to you? • 1:55 - What kind of food do you like to eat? • 2:38 - Do you like cooking? • 3:20 - What was the last meal you cooked? • 3:33 - What kind of people become famous in your country? • 4:21 - Why do you think politicians and movie stars become famous in your country? • 5:05 - How would you compare famous people today with famous people of the past? • 5:38 - Do you think famous people in the past behaved better? • • 6:02 - What kind of people do you think will become famous in the future? • • 6:50 - How are famous people used in advertising?
