IELTS SPEAKING FULL INTERVIEW
PART – 1 INTRO PART
What is your full name?
My name is Dalreet Kumar.
How may I address you?
You may address me as Dalreet.
May I see your ID?
Sure, here it is.
Does it rain much in your country? (Where? When?)
I would say yes. It rains a lot in the summer when tropical storms strike our country. There is torrential rain in the region in June, July and August, and the rainfall tends to be higher in the North than in the South.
Is there any part of your country where it doesn’t rain much?
To tell you the truth, I have no clue about this. I do not give a hoot about geography and the amount of rain in my country. I think the most rainfall is in the North where there is an intricate system of rivers.
Does it rain a lot in your hometown?
Well, it depends on the season. In winter and spring, there is a dearth of rain associated with the arid weather. In contrast, it is usually raining cats and dogs in summer and august, causing loads of troubles for people travelling on the road.
Can you remember any time when it rained particularly heavily in your hometown?
That would be last summer. I was going to work and then all of a sudden it started to rain, followed by a deluge. I was soaked to the skin and couldn’t attend a very important meeting.
Does rain ever affect transportation in your hometown?
Yeah, of course. Traffic is often held up when it rains. All the roads are clogged, and people find it difficult to escape from traffic congestion. I would stay at home and watch TV rather than going out and being caught up in traffic.

SAMPLE ANSWER
I think every person in this world has got a talent or two and few are born with many talents. If I talk about myself, I am not a person of many talents but one talent that I may have a little is dancing. There are many different dancing styles like breakdance, folk, hip-hop, contemporary but I like to do freestyle dancing.
Since my childhood, I have loved to dance at home, parties, or marriage functions but I have never learnt or performed professionally. Until recently, it was my cousin’s wedding and we thought of doing a surprise dance performance for him and his fiancé. All my other cousins gave me the responsibility to choreograph the performance and also selected me as the lead dancer.
We selected popular songs with catchy beats for our performance and it turned out to be really amazing. Everyone really liked us and appreciated our sweet gesture for the event. One of cousin’s friend who runs a dancing academy was really happy to see my moves and asked me from where I learnt them. When I told her that I have never learnt dancing, she suggested to me that I am really good at it and can even make a career out of it.
This is actually when I gave serious thought to her advice and had the realization that maybe it is a talent that I have. I am now thinking of joining her dance academy to learn different forms of dancing and who knows maybe I would like to participate in a dancing competition one day.
I think dancing makes me feel really happy and relaxed. It is also a stress buster for me and a great form of exercise. I forget about all the worries while dancing. It is an amazing experience.
PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Do you think artists with talents should focus on their talents?
I honestly think that artists with talents should focus on it only if they are passionate about it because If we are not passionate about something then we are not able to sustain our interest in the particular activity for long. For example, the son or daughter of a famous musician might have innate talent towards music but if they do not have any interest in music they will never become successful musicians.
Is it possible for us to know the children who are 3 or 4 years old will become musicians or painters when they grow up?
I do not think it is possible to predict what a child will grow up to be in the future at such a young age. Children at the age of 3 or 4 are very curious and show their interest in almost everything as they are discovering the world around them. It would be very difficult to identify that they will become an artist in the future or not, even if the child has some innate talent, as most of the parents do not pay much serious attention to what their child is doing.
Do you think parents feel guilty for putting too much pressure on their children?
Well, I believe parents do not feel much guilty for putting their children under pressure because they think that they are preparing their children for the challenges that the real world would bring in the future. Parents have the idea that putting their children under pressure will motivate them to push themselves harder and achieve the impossible in life.
