IELTS Speaking Test
Do you like art?
Yeah, I’m really into art coz it helps to release my stress. It’s a good way to get it out of my system from singing or painting. And art makes me be able to perceive the world better, like to discover beauty in life, and to improve my aesthetic level.
Do you like visiting art galleries?
Yeah, love to go to art galleries on my days off coz it’s cool to take snapshots there and put them on my moments. More importantly, I have the chance to know different genres, and listen to the stories told by the guides.
IELTS Speaking Test
Do you want to be an artist?
Well my answer is no because most of the artists are in limbo. I mean, it’s very hard for a person to make a name for him or herself in the industry. I know it sounds utilitarian, but that’s the truth. And if that’s the case, it’s impossible for an artist to support him or herself.
Do you like modern art or traditional art?
Honestly, I’m an outsider to art, but I should say, I just love both because each has its strong points. To my understanding, traditional art provides a basis for aesthetic level, showing people the details of the artwork. And modern art is sort of like, breaking the mould and reflecting the artists’ thoughts.

Do you like painting/ drawing? Why?
Yes, I do. I used to be fancy of drawing when I was in primary school. I just enjoyed copying the figure in my drawing book and making use of any colour as I like. I felt proud of being praised by my relatives when they saw my drawing posted on the wall of my house.
Do you want to learn more about art?
No. I simply take it as some entertainment activities to kill time like sculpturing or paper cutting, not something that I would like to pay special attention or invest, or put alot of efforts. As I mentioned, handicrafts making is too time consuming and challenging to be adept. So, as opposed to making such stuff, I would rather spend some time listening to music and learn how to sing.
IELTS Speaking Test
Do you think children should learn drawing?
It depends. If a child has an interest in drawing, it’s good for them to do. Parents should encourage their children to do what they like. However, it’s useless to push every child to learn drawing.

IELTS Speaking Test
SAMPLE ANSWER
One memorable time I bought something from a street market was during my trip to Bangkok last year. The market was the famous Chatuchak Weekend Market, which is known for its vast array of stalls selling everything from clothing to food.
I ended up purchasing a beautiful handmade silk scarf. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns caught my eye immediately. The vendor was friendly and even shared stories about the artisans who made the scarves, which made the purchase feel even more special.
I felt a sense of excitement and satisfaction after buying the scarf. It wasn’t just a piece of clothing; it felt like a tangible memory from my trip. I love how street markets offer unique items that you can’t find in regular stores, and this scarf serves as a reminder of my adventure in Thailand.

Street markets feel more vibrant and lively compared to shopping malls. They offer a sense of community and cultural exchange, while malls can sometimes feel impersonal and commercialized.
