Feb 9, 2024
In this video, I answered some Part 3 practice questions about waiting. A lot of students shared the cue card that they recently got about A TIME YOU WAITED FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL TO HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE, so their questions in Part 3 also talked about waiting or being patient. These questions are not the exact question that they actually got. The purpose of this video is to simply give you some insights on how I answer Part 3 questions using my own techniques that helped me achieve a band 9 on my first attempt at taking the IELTS speaking test. Good luck!

Hi, welcome to IELTS Dragon, my name is Julius and I got a bad night on my first attempt
0:07
at taking the IELTS speaking test. Today I'd like to share with you all the practice questions in part 3 about waiting
0:17
One of the recent cue cards that is shared by a lot of students online is about a time
0:24
you waited for something special to happen in your life. So basically, part 3 questions are related to that or related to the topic of waiting
0:36
So in this video, I would like to answer part 3 questions about waiting
0:43
I will share with you how I normally answer part 3 questions and I will apply the strategies
0:51
that I used when I took the IELTS speaking test that helped me get a band 9
0:59
So without further ado, let's begin! On what occasions do people usually need to wait
1:07
Well, there are many instances that make people wait, such as waiting for the right time to
1:16
settle down, waiting for the best weather before sailing, waiting for the best time
1:23
to quit one's job, and so on. I know, waiting is really hard, but that's just life
1:31
There are things beyond control. I can say that life is best lived if we learn some great lessons from waiting
1:43
Compared to the past, are people less patient now? Why or why not
1:50
Definitely, I've noticed that a lot of people these days have become impatient and turned
1:58
into complainers. They hate queuing, they abhor average internet speed and want ultra-fast internet connection
2:10
They easily get irritated by traffic that sometimes results in road rage and things
2:17
like that. I think as the world advances, people lose sight of the importance of being patient
2:28
Before we continue, I'd like to congratulate my 1-in-1 students who recently passed the test
2:35
Belle Fernando, band A. On her first attempt, she only got 6.5, which is 0.5 short to get 7
2:45
Luckily, she found me online and bought one of my ebooks. Then she decided to study with me, we had 10 coaching sessions
2:54
I pointed out her weaknesses and addressed them strategically. I'm very proud to say that we made it
3:02
She got a band 8 from 6.5. Well, it's more than the score that she needed for her US visa application
3:12
Jeramia Perez, band 7. Before she studied with me, she already took the test twice and she got 6.5 and 6
3:23
Until she contacted me asking for help since her employer told her that if she couldn't
3:29
provide her IELTS scores, they would cancel her job application for the US
3:34
So we had 10 coaching sessions before she took the test. And I'm very happy to say that we made it
3:42
She got a band 7. Congratulations to my students Belle and Jeramia
3:48
I'm very happy for your success. Anyway, my ebooks or reviewers are currently on sale for this month
3:57
If you're interested in buying my reviewers that helped many students pass their exams
4:04
just send me an email. Who behaves better when waiting, children or adults
4:13
Obviously, adults. They are more patient than children simply because they are understanding and rational
4:22
They don't throw tantrums like children when they get bored waiting for something or someone
4:29
Besides, adults have more life experiences that have taught them to appreciate the value
4:38
of patience. What are the positive and negative effects of waiting on people or on society
4:48
Well, that's a very difficult question and it's something that I've never thought about
4:54
But let me try. Well, by waiting, we get to understand the value of patience
5:02
We also learn to understand the feeling of waiting. And when something arrives, which we have been waiting for long, we get to appreciate
5:13
the value of it because basically we spend so much time waiting for it to happen or to come
5:20
However, the downsides of waiting are we waste our time and the frustration or the disappointment
5:31
that we feel if things turn out bad. But personally, I see those downsides as life lessons anyway
5:41
We have more successful test takers. Abira Noir, 7.5. Shanti Yadav, Olya, Band 7
