Episode notes
Part 3 Focuses On Society Issues
- Speaking Part 3 asks about society-level issues, not personal anecdotes.
- You won't naturally get enough practice unless you intentionally start those conversations.
Hosts Rarely Discuss Heavy Topics
- Aubrey and Lindsay note they rarely discuss heavy societal topics with friends.
- Even living in an English country doesn't guarantee practice on Part 3 topics unless you initiate conversation.
Follow A Clear Three-Step Structure
- Use a three-step answer: opinion, support with specifics, then a short summary if possible.
- Keep answers concise and stop when the examiner interrupts to show fluency.
