IELTS Speaking Part 2Person

Describe a person who is good at explaining difficult ideas.

You should say:

  • who this person is
  • what they explained to you
  • how they made it easy to understand
  • why you remember the explanation

and explain your answer with relevant details.

Ready for Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 together?

Continue into the full speaking mock for structured turns, saved history and AI feedback across the four IELTS criteria.

Start full speaking mock

Use the tool in three focused passes

The result is more useful when you know what to do before, during and after the main interaction.

Pass 1

Start with four keywords

Note a person, place, event and feeling instead of writing full sentences during preparation.

Pass 2

Use the full two minutes

Expand with details, reasons and results so the answer does not stop after a few sentences.

Pass 3

Review one recording

On playback, note only three things: a pause, a repeated phrase and one missing concrete detail.

Start with a concrete example

Use the built-in example as a small rehearsal: enter the same kind of input, notice the result, then replace it with your own situation.

Person card: a calm problem solver

During preparation, note who, one situation, one action and one lesson, then connect them into a story.

Place card: somewhere you concentrate

Do not list adjectives. Use location, routine, sensory detail and reason to keep the answer moving.

When this tool is most useful

Daily warm-up

Draw an unfamiliar category and complete one full timer to practise quick organisation rather than memorisation.

One week before the test

Record one answer daily and fix one issue the next day: pauses, repetition or missing detail.

When a topic feels impossible

Use the four bullet points to describe a plausible situation, then add feelings and reasons instead of stopping at “I have not experienced this”.

What this page adds beyond a generic tip list

Connect the cue card to an action

After drawing a topic, move straight into preparation, speaking and playback instead of reading a static list.

Four keywords are enough to start

Use a person, place, event and feeling during preparation instead of spending the minute writing full sentences.

Common mistakes this tool helps you catch

Turning the cue card into a script

A cue card gives direction; it does not require a memorised essay.

Stopping after a few sentences

Add one concrete detail, reason and result so the answer develops towards two minutes.

Reviewing fluency only

Review repeated words, tense control and whether you covered the cue-card points.

A stronger second pass

Build topic transfer

Use the same four-move structure across person, place and experience cards to see what transfers and what must be rebuilt.

Use recording as evidence

Do not chase a perfect first take. Keep a comparable attempt and look for one measurable change next time.
