IELTS SPEAKING INTERVIEW
PART – 1 INTRO
Q. Where do you buy most of your clothes? [Why?]
Answer: I buy most of my clothes from regular shops in regular markets where clothing items are affordable. However, when it comes to buying some special clothes for special occasions, I try to buy them from shopping malls where I can choose some clothes from a large collection of clothing items.
Q. How often do you buy new clothes for yourself? [Why?]
Answer: I don’t really buy new clothes that often for myself as it usually takes a long time to wear them down. And, unless my clothes are worn out to make them look old, I don’t like to buy any clothes for myself. So, anyway, if you are asking me to be precise, I would say that I buy new clothes as often as twice or thrice a year unless I have a very good reason to buy on more occasions than that.

Q. How do you decide which clothes to buy?
Answer: I decide which clothes to buy largely depends on what time of the year I want to wear them. In other words, if I want to wear then during summer time, I would go for heat-resistant clothes. Similarly, if I want to wear them during winter time, I would buy warm clothes to keep myself warm and comfortable. I also decide which clothes to buy depending on whether I want to wear them casually or for some special occasions such as attending parties or enjoying a soccer game in the field.
Q. Have the kinds of clothes you like changed in recent years?[Why?/Why not?]
Answer: Yes, I do think that the clothes, which I like, have changed for “worse” instead of getting better in recent years in terms of “quality”. Besides, my preference and choice of costumes have changed as well. In the past, fashion was my top priority while comfort is the most important issue now.
In fact, in the past years, I could buy a good quality dress and forget about buying another one in the next few months, in the least. But, nowadays, I buy the same types of clothes, and they look old and faded only after a couple of months or so. Of course, the clothes have become more stylish and fashionable in recent years, but without meeting the minimum quality requirements, they are only as good as they “look”.

SAMPLE ANSWER
There is no doubt that money is one of the most important things, if not the most important thing, in life as it just can’t only build our life but also can destroy it. Therefore, it is absolutely important that we just don’t earn our money, but we make sure that we spend and manage it properly by discussing it with the elderly and wise. And that’s exactly what I tried to do a couple of years ago with my father.
After opening up a savings account right after starting my new job about a few years ago, I didn’t really know that I had managed to save up a “substantial” amount of money (substantial for me, at least) little by little every month.

In fact, suddenly I felt like I was a “rich” as the money was all mine and only mine. Then, again, I became a little cautious too. So, it was a “mixed” bag of feeling after all. Not knowing what to do with the money, I decided to discuss with my father about it.My father, of course, didn’t seem so excited and instead, he just told me to wait for a few days after which he would offer me some concrete advice.
Exactly after two days, my father came and asked me to buy some company “stocks” from the stock exchange market. Without saying a word, I started to learn about the stock market. He explained to me a great deal of this new stock market concepts to me and how I should be more cautious about money management for the rest of my life to do better financially.

The talk was interesting because it actually helped me come of an age where I was starting to this like an intelligent “businessman” and “investor”. It was also interesting that it was at that discussion that my father ever treated me like an “adult”! The discussion also made me realize for the first time that I was also able to take charge of my own life by becoming a proud “owner” of something or some assets.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Discussion topics: Money and young people
Q. Why do some parents give their children money to spend each week?
Answer: I guess that this is one of the instances where one gets to say that we, adults, just don’t love and need money, but children do it too! Anyway, some parents give money to their children in order to spend each week because some children have their own “ideas of food” such as “cakes” or “ice creams”, and they have to eat those “food” every day, if not every hour, no matter how full they are in their “stomach”.
Q. Do you agree that schools should teach children how to manage money?
Answer: Yes, I do agree that the schools should teach children how to manage money because, whether we like it or not, money probably is the single most important factor of our adult lives which helps us decide whether we are “successful” or not. In fact, I believe that the schools make it “mandatory” for all children to learn about “money management” in the classes.

Q. Do you think it is a good idea for students to earn money while studying?
Answer: Yes, I do think that it is a good idea for students to earn money while studying, but, only if the money earning thing doesn’t affect the studies negatively. If students earn money while studying, they can actually learn even more about the idea of shared responsibilities and punctuality that are associated with the role of a job position.
Q. Do you think it is true that in today’s society money can’t buy happiness?
Answer: In my opinion, money can buy a lot of things in today’s world, but it certainly can’t buy happiness. But that, of course, depends on how we like to define “happiness” in the great scheme of things.
Money will certainly buy us the biggest villa, the most luxurious and comfortable car, the best of the dresses and the most expensive and delicious of the food, but I can bet a million “quid” that it just won’t be able to buy us the sound sleep, the love, the respect, the knowledge and the health to offer our life the “truly complete” feeling it deserves.
