Speaking:
Read aloud - basahin with a low voice yung sentence, iba kasi pag sa utak mo lang binasa. Figure out nyo yung pauses and yung mga difficult words. During sa exam ko, may mga maling pronunciation agad ako (de-fee-ciency, nasabi ko de-fe-ciency) and yung may mga pauses ako na hindi dapat. 2nd item palang nalulungkot na ako kasi lumiliit chance ko for a higher score, pero tinuloy ko lang. Don't correct yourself, direcho lang, isipin mo nawawala yung words kada sabi mo.
Repeat sentence - mahina ako sa memory, so ang ginawa ko is yung sinabi ng iba na isulat yung first letter ng words, the only difference is I try to list as much as I can. Siguro out of 10, mga 6 nakuha ko. Di kailangan na makuha mo lahat ng words, may mga pinaraphrase ako dun na sure akong wala yung word na sinabi ko pero kesa walang masabi. (Pababa na ng pababa yung morale ko dito).
Describe Image - Charts and tables lang lumabas sakin. Ginamit ko yung mga templates na binigay nila @kokoc and medyo minodify ko lang kasi di siya tipong nagapply sa lahat especially sa bar/line, nakadepende siya sa data talaga. Pero malaking tulong na meron kang template para di mo na kelangan mag isip ng fillers.
Introduction: The _____ graph/chart projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from a research about/entitled _____ from ____ to ____ (kung applicable). Pag natancha kong mapapaparaphrase ko, about gamit ko. Pag hindi, entitled gamit ko tapos as is na basa ng title,
Pie: Maganda yung template nila, gamitin nyo.
Bar: Pag single variable, compare from point to point. E.g. In 2010, the number of students is ____ and it slightly increased up to 2011. It further increased by 2012 and ended with ____ by 2013. Pag multiple variables, use their templates - highest, lowest, 2nd highest.
Line: Same pag single variable sa bar. Pag multiple, establish trends. E.g. As seen on the graph, the blue line which represents Australia, slightly decreases throughout the period. While the red line, which represents Japan, drastically increased during the same timeline. Pag may 3rd line, repeat. Pag wala, compare last points - Additionally, Australia was considerably higher in 2015 than Japan.
Table: The table projected on the screen is about ____. Dito, chineck ko nalang ng mabuti yung tables kasi iba iba yung types eh. Pero mostly applicable yung highest/lowest. Yung isa kong table, about population and years, meron yun 2 rows and 5 columns pero ang nasabi ko is 2 rows and 2 columns (direcho parin kahit mali). Mahirap igauge to.
Picture/Map and Process: Wala ako nakuha, pero plan ko for Pictures and Maps is to describe based on anong nakikita ko sa foreground, left, background then right. Sa Process, babasahin ko lang rin and try to explain the cycle lang.
Yung conclusion ko pala, almost all of the time, putol. Laging "Overall, the graph seems accurate and concise" lang nasasabi ko kasi parang mauubos na oras.
Wala akong napansing timer during this pero nung sa mock merong timer per item, so naconscious ako dito na wag ma cut. I believe medyo smooth yung overall flow ko naman dito.
Retell Lecture:
Sa listening, tinry ko yung sinuggest na mag sulat ng 34 sentences then fix mo nalang yung sentences para babasahin mo nalang. Nahirapan ako dito pero feeling ko practice lang. Ang nangyari kasi sakin, sinusulat ko yung phrases, tapos babalikan ko para gawing sentence, nagkakataon di ko na naiintindihan yung sinasabi nya.
The speaker provided a brief information about ___ and a significant amount of time was spent discussing around this topic.
Filler: The speaker concluded after all of the data points were completely discussed.
To summarize his/her analysis, he/she mentioned 3 major points.
1/2/3
Overall, the lecture was clear and interesting and can be used by students and educators.
After ng 1st item ko dito, napansin ko na di ako umabot sa conclusion (yes, naputulan ako). So inadjust ko sa next items na di ko na sinabi yung fillers.
Nagkaron ako ng 2 items na 2 sentence lang nalagay ko. Yung sa isa, medyo nakapagimpromptu ako para magkaron ng last sentence. Yung sa last ko, sobrang sabog kasi binabasa ko yung mga sentences tapos pag dating sa dulo at wala nang nakasulat, ang last ko nalang nasabi is "and.............." tapos nagcut na. Nastun talaga ako, napamura nalang ako after.
At that point sure na ako na di ko makukuha yung scores ko.
Answer short questions: I think very straightforward to.
Sa buong speaking test, inantay ko macut yung mic. Kahit may malakas na boses sa iba, yung voice ko lang nadedetect nya or siguro swerte ako na di ko katabi yung malakas magsalita.
