state of Gujarat and its biggest city of Ahmedabad I live in a large apartment with my parents and younger sister do you work or study currently I am pursuing my studies in computer science I am enrolled in two-year diploma of computer science and I wish to study abroad afterward in the UK or the US let's talk about teachers who was your favorite teacher my technology class teacher Mr Desai in grade 12 is the one I like the most or so far she's the one who's pursue the field of computer science I really like the way she made learning fun every day where do you learn from teachers the most common place to learn from a teacher is a school especially in a classroom but nowadays it is also popular to learn from teachers online in a virtual classroom or even on YouTube I have been learning a lot of English online these days what is important to be a good teacher students and to effective learning Mr Sai was really good at these that's why I adore her when is a good time to ask a teacher a question the best occasion to ask a question from teacher is as soon as possible before the student forgets Mrs I let us ask question anytime during the lesson and this was much appreciated by all of my peers have you ever taught anyone uh yes I have I've been teaching a basic computer literacy to elderly uh like doing online banking and sending emails I have done this for the past couple of years if you could teach any subject what would it be given a chance to instruct a topic I would love to teach Advanced computer programming and data analysis because this is my future ambition and when I do my master I hope to have this opportunity as an assistant of my supervisor that is the end of part one we will now continue with part two for this in order to get high band scores in part one you have to make sure to pay attention to a lot of different strategies including giving clear answers explanations and examples to the questions most importantly the number one strategy to increase your band score is through paraphrasing this means to use the information in the questions and give the answers with your own words changing the words that you hear in the question to synonyms descriptive paraphrasings antonyms with negatives and expressions or grammar let me give you an example when the examiner asks Arya who is your favorite teacher Arya says the teacher I like most of all this is descriptive paraphrasing favorite and to like most of all is the same information said different ways paraphrasing increases arya's fluency lexical resource and grammar watch the video several times and see if you can catch all of the paraphrasing that Arya uses throughout the interview now let's continue to for this part I will show you some questions you will have one minute to read these you can take notes in the one minute if you wish you have some Note Paper there beside you and then you will have one to two minutes to speak I will tell you when to start and when to stop talk about a member of your family you think is successful please do not touch the card your one minute preparation time begins now your time is up please begin speaking the most successful family member that I know is my cousin neval he's the son of my mom's older brother and he lives in a Rajkot it is about four hours drive from my home I have known Neville since I was born because uh he's just eight years older than me and my family has spent much time together meeting up for celebrations and frequent visits throughout the years Nevada is successful not only financially but also physically and in his community he has made quite a bit of money in real estate uh selling residential and commercial buildings he is very kind to people around him and he is well respected in his community he actively participates and uh charity events and fundraisers with his five and two children I recently heard that he contributed his work to establish a new health center in Rajkot he did all the land purchasing Administration pro bono I think a big part of his success has been his attitude and attention to physical health I mean he's always smiling and finding ways to solve the problem also he eats really healthy and he's basically a vegetarian and really eats meat he wakes up early in the morning to meditate a stretch and run I think the best way neval has helped me to pursue my ambitions and success is by setting an example often when I face a difficult situation I think a what would neval do and this really helped my attitude and success your time is up I will stop you there we'll take back the questions please put the notes to the side turn them over as well as the pencil and now we will continue with part three in part two Arya gives a fantastic answer for the question of a successful family member she chooses to speak about Rajkot her cousin who is a builder and real estate agent she does a very good job explaining in detail who he is what he does and why he is successful she makes sure to answer all of the questions on the cue card now importantly Arya recognizes that when a person is the topic of the cue card it's important to always give the activities that this person does to back up their personality when Arya talks about Rajkot being helpful she immediately includes the idea that Rajkot helped to build a new health center in his area pro bono take a look at this part two again and pay attention to each type of Personality that Rajkot has backed up by action it's this type of explanation with real world examples that give Clarity to your answer in part two and these kinds of answers will get the highest band scores notice how the response has a beginning a middle and an end Arya introduces Rajkot explains what he does why he is successful and what she has learned from him in this way the examiner knows that she has finished her response and is ready to move on to part three if you would like to know your score for

questions related to the topic of part two let's talk about becoming a successful person what is needed for a person to become successful as I have mentioned previously I think a person should be optimistic and physically fit to be become successful I think mental and physical fortitude are fundamental because they help the individual to persevere in the challenging situation uh like when
