IELTS Speaking Part 3 Answering Strategies
Based on lectures and tips from experts, you can apply the AREA formula when answering questions. This formula not only ensures logic and tightly connected arguments but also avoids going off-topic.
A - Answer: Provide a direct answer to the question
R - Reason: State the reason leading to the answer
E - Example: Provide specific arguments and examples
A - Alternatives: You don't have to agree with the examiner's viewpoint in every test section; you can present a counter-argument to the question, along with the most solid evidence.
Basically, the IELTS Speaking Part 2 and Part 3 will be closely related to each other. In Part 3, candidates will be required to discuss in detail the questions raised in Part 2. Besides pocketing vocabulary that helps "score points," don't forget to refer to common questions to get an overview of the entire test.
