IELTS Speaking Interview
Do you do housework at home?
Yes, I do! Even though I could afford a home, I prefer to do it on my own. I live by myself in a small, studio apartment so it’s easy enough. Actually, I find housework to be relaxing. When I feel stressed, I like the mindless activity (something which doesn’t require hard thinking) of scrubbing the shower, floors, and kitchen cabinets. I really hate sweeping though! I always miss too many spots.
What kinds of housework do you often do?
All of them! I do dishes, dusting, sweeping, mopping, and scrubbing the kitchen and bathroom. I usually do a deep clean every two weeks, but keep tidying up during the week. I have a pet peeve (something that really bothers you) of having a clean bathroom, so I generally do that about once a week.
IELTS Speaking Interview
Did you do housework when you were a child?
Yes, my parents enforced this. They had a rotation chore assignment chart for the 4 of us children every week. We would earn $5 a week for completing them. If we acted up (misbehave), extra chores would be put on (assigned to) us. If we had a special accomplishment, like straight A’s, we would be off chores for a week.
Do you think that children should do housework?
Absolutely! Even if the parents could hire help instead, it teaches children a sense of responsibility and skill. Also, it helps them to not be spoiled ( a person who has too much). When they learn these skills at a young age, they can carry it into their adulthood and be better homemakers.
IELTS Speaking Interview
Do you think that men and women should share housework?
Without a doubt! I don’t believe in these gender stereotypes of only women doing housework. I believe it is the responsibility of both people. Moreover, when they share the responsibilities, it takes the pressure off both of them. However, if one spouse is working all day and the other is at home, I think the one at home should cover the housework.
What kinds of household chores do you dislike doing?
I despise sweeping! Ever since I was a child, I’ve had a poor eye (cannot see well) for the dirt on the floor. I always tend to miss spots, then later when I mop, it makes a mess! Actually, at my first job in a restaurant, I was banned from sweeping because I did such a poor job!

Describe a foreign culture that you like
Introduction:
– What culture is it?
– How do you know about it?
– What differences there are between that culture and your own?
Explain why you like that foreign culture?
SAMPLE ANSWER
Culture means not only the languages, religion, rituals, art etc. Cuisine also comes under the culture. How they cook food, what kind of food they have, etc. So here I am going to talk about the food culture of the foreign country, yes it is Japan.
Here, in India we cook food like rice, sabji, veggies etc. Even in the sabji we had lots of different kinds of sabji like sambar, rasam, aloo mattur etc. likewise here I’m going to talk about the food culture of Japan. In Japan the famous food is Sushi also it is also one of the traditional foods in Japan. Mostly they eat raw food even though they eat fish also raw, they consider it as the best food.
IELTS Speaking Interview
After my degree I was searching for a job, and finally I was selected in a reputable company for a manager position and in a few days I chose to attend the meeting in Japan. The head office of the company was in Japan. The office has taken full charge of room booking, flight charge, food and for all my basic needs, I was so interested to explore Japan, so after completing my meeting in Japan. I started to explore it at that time. I heard about the food kinds in Japan. My guide friend helps me to learn about those things but asking from others.
It was totally different, because they were eating most of the food raw, even they were not half boiling too. To be said, I was sick after eating their food, but in our country we used to eat most of the food after cooking and it has 6 kinds of taste.
Yes, as I said the food of their country was not cooked, but the street foods like donuts, ice cream are so good and yummy. Here, kids prefer different kinds of sabji and veggies, there they prefer ice creams, cakes etc. When I was there, I completed my dinner and lunch by eating those street foods only.
We could not say any mistakes in their way of food, because it was their own. We are just visitors, we are going to spend just 1 or 2 weeks only. But to be frank, their cleanliness is super good while comparing with our country. I mean where they were cooking, even in restaurants and street food stalls.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
What do you think is the best way to learn foreign culture?
The best way to learn foreign culture is through the internet, because not everyone can afford to spend money to go there to learn about their culture. Also, an Indian parent would not allow their children to move to another place to learn about that country’s culture, they could feel uncomfortable.
What do you think is the biggest problem when working in a foreign country?.
As I assume languages and foods are the major hassle to work in a foreign nation. Because those two are important to working in foreign country, if it is not there people will get afraid to work there.
IELTS Speaking Interview
Some people say that reading is the best way to learn about a culture, do you agree?
Yes, reading is one of the ways to learn about a culture in other countries. But, also exploring other countries will also help you to learn about other country’s cultures. A lot of people cannot afford to go to different countries. Thus, they can learn
How did you feel when other countries’ cultures followed in our country?
It seems good to youngsters and for kids, but older people will not like it. Because older people would not love those kinds of culture, they will say that people should live with some discipline. These activities are not good for our society and so on. They start to give advice to us.
