- Warm up! This is essential because it helps you ready your thought process.
- Begin slow. Collate your thoughts and be composed as you begin.
- In between your answers, give a silent pause. Do not rush with your answers.
- Who, what, where, when and how. These are the five questions that will help you expand on any given subject.
- If you find yourself stuck on any a question, use the phrase: “Okay, please allow me two seconds to put my thoughts together.” For example, on the question: “Where do you normally go out on weekends?” You can respond by saying: “Well, on weekends I normally go to meet my grandma who lives ten minutes away from my residence. I usually walk it up and I prefer going towards the afternoon as I get to spend more time with her.”That’s how you basically expand your answer by covering the when, why, what, where and how!
- Do not give a one-line answer. If the question is: “Do you like going to shopping malls?”This can be answered with a “Yes” or a “No”. But it would be better to say: “I do not really enjoy going to malls as I find them too noisy and crowded. I would rather walk into a store on a high street or if I know what I am looking for, I would buy it online.” So here you have not only expanded on your answer, but you have also given the examiner enough words to test your English speaking ability.
