But, I like visiting beautiful and colourful places, and today I would like to talk about such a colourful place that I visited about two years ago. The place, I visited, is called St. Jones which is situated in the Canadian state of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Today, I would like to talk about one such occasion when I was also forced to change my plan. It happened about a year ago or so when I made a plan in order to take my little 6 years old nephew to do some fishing at a lake for the first time. My little nephew, of course, had requested this to me a number of times in the past, but because of my busy work schedule, I just couldn’t entertain his requ

So, thank you very much for this interesting cue card topic as I will go ahead and talk about one of those many ambitions I have held in my heart for a long time. Of course, the ambition or goal, I have in my life, is not anything very unique or glamorous as many students of my age from my country have the same ambition which is to become a teacher after finishing their studies. The difference, of course, here is that I a

IELTS Cue Card/ Candidate Task Card  393 with Model Answer: Describe a time when you started using a new technological device (e.g. a new computer or phone).

You can make some notes to help you if you wish.] Model Answer: I have a habit of checking up on the latest technologies from time to time in order to just keep myself informed. Of course, not that I find all types of technologies useful, as far as my needs are concerned, but when I came to know about “digital security system” about a few years ago, I thought that I could surely use that technology to protect my home someday when I buy my own home. But, for better or worse, I didn’t really need to wait for my own home in order to use
