Hello, students! So, are you a risk taker or risk-averse?😀

[@saidabbasabbas3687]

Sir still curious for season 2

[@thegirlfrommars8099]

Hi teacher. I just have a quick question, so i have my speaking test really soon and im practicing as many questions as possible because i wanna get 9 in ielts So im seeing many people who got 9 and most of them use difficult words. But i can't memorise them that well. So do you think it is important to use difficult vocab in order to get 9 ? Hope you will answer this

[@JacksEnglish]

@@thegirlfrommars8099 Hi! Thanks for the question. Vocabulary is definitely an important aspect in determining your result. If you lack time, I would recommend the following: Memorize general-use, high-level words/expressions. These are words/expressions you can use in many situations but are considered high-level. Some examples are: Tremendously, On the contrary, Predominantly, Owing to the fact that. Also, try to find some nice upgrades for your basic conjunctions. That's an easy way to boost your vocabulary. Good luck!!

I am goona take the IELTS exam next month and your videos related to IELTS speaking which is my weakness is absolutely marveloussssss! I love your channel and your content a lot. Please upload more video about IELTS SPEAKING. Thank you so muchhhhhh

[@JacksEnglish]

@@eunyog I’m glad you found me! Thanks for the nice feedback and I will try to upload much more!👍

[@nahianhasnat6546]

Thank you very much, Mr. Jack, for explaining this so clearly. It really cleared up my confusion. Now all I have to do is practice the part 2 cue cards. Wish me luck.

[@JacksEnglish]

That's great to hear😀All the best with your practice and good luck in the exam!

[@nahianhasnat6546]

@@JacksEnglish I have another question that just poped in my head. Suppose the cue card topic is really unique and I couldn't understand a word or the meaning of it. For example, if the topic is "A moment of serendipity in your life" and I don't know what "serendipity" means, how should I answer if I ever face this type of situation?

[@JacksEnglish]

@@nahianhasnat6546 Yes, this can happen. Firstly, you can ask the examiner for the definition of individual words. If you still don't understand fully, just try to make a guess based on the extra details below the part 2 question (below "you should say"). Whatever you decide on, commit to your structure and aim for a full 2 minutes.

I’m a risk taker because my character and personality don’t let me pass this risk, I enjoy to face with difficulties, so if you are a older, you will think about risk should i do that or not. However, right now i’m 20, I am a young so i don’t let myself avoid of risk for me, risk is a chance to be success and there is no loss because you will success or you will get good experiences

[@saidabbasabbas3687]

I was in search of this kind of podcast and eventually i found it thank you for your efforts and keep it up

[@eunyog]

I am really bad at pronunciation. I hope that u will give me some advice for improving my pronunciation

[@JacksEnglish]

@@eunyog Yes, this is a tricky one. I’ll try to work on a video about that. I’m a big fan of shadowing/mimicking, so I’ll try to give advice on that.

[@XiaoZhao1234]

I am risk taker and I often enjoy hiking although I am 29 for now. I like gazing the beautiful scenery from the top of the mountain. You talked about your trip to Australia. It may be a good place for advanture trips but I really fear spider since I was a little girl. In my country, particularly in rural areas, we often see spiders which have long legs, sometimes in toilets. So, before I enter to toilet, I first thing I do is to find spider. I haven't ever been to Australia but it may have more number of spiders than our country.😮 😮 By the way, I like your podcasts very much. If I have a chance to go to Korea one day, I wanna join your private classes. Good teacher🎉

[@JacksEnglish]

Thanks for sharing your answer! Yes, there are an awful lot of spiders in Australia, but if you stay away from the countryside, you can mostly avoid them. I hope you get your chance to come to Korea one day!

[@jejubada815]

Wow I loved this topic thanks!

[@JacksEnglish]

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@Andy-h4t]

hey! your site isn't working which is sad! thanks for your effort anyway!

[@JacksEnglish]

britplus.net should be working. The old site is no longer available. Please let me know if you have any issues with the new site. Thanks!

[@Margaretch205]

is the vocabulary textbook free?

[@JacksEnglish]

It's $7.95

[@muazzuhani7435]

I'll say I'm a risk taker, the reason is I'm not so aged so I've plenty of time to overcome if I fail in some cases, I love to take risks as much as I can🙏

[@JacksEnglish]

Great answer! The only adjustment I would make is the following: ‘I’m not so aged’ -> ‘I’m fairly young’. No grammar issue here; it’s just a bit more natural. Good job👍

[@muazzuhani7435]

@@JacksEnglish that was a good learning Jacks, Thanks :)

[@eunyog]

If the examiner ask me about History topic, can you suggest what should I say?????

[@JacksEnglish]

@@eunyog Do you mean any questions related to the topic of History? Please find my podcast on the topic: episode 22!😀

[@JacksEnglish]

Yes, it was awful!😂 Thanks for watching

[@jrsimon5703]

Sir, I can't find the handout of the lessons you used to provide. Plz help me

[@JacksEnglish]

The handouts have now been compiled with my speaking structures and season 2 language to make a textbook. This is available on my website. Thanks👍

[@Widiartigines]

Can Indonesian subtitles be provided?

[@JacksEnglish]

Perhaps there is auto translate provided by KZbin? I check the English subtitles for accuracy so translations should be decent.

[@mehedisenglishcare]

great sir 🇧🇩

[@JacksEnglish]

Thanks!👍

[@Dildora-dm9iu]

I'm risk taker but I have a fear of heights I think I should overcome this fear

[@JacksEnglish]

I hope you find a way to overcome this fear. It's very frustrating for me!😅

[@ngawangsherab9724]

Hello sir... After long time 🙌🙌🙌

[@JacksEnglish]

Hello! I'm happy to be back😀

[@hamidrezarabipoor6656]

It depends to type of the risk and consequences you meet after😊

[@JacksEnglish]

Well said! My tolerance has lowered since I was a teenager though😅

[@YasirAliBaryar]

Can I have a personal talk with you?

[@JacksEnglish]

Hi. I can talk personally through private lessons, but I'm afraid I am not teaching online at the moment. I am happy to answer questions in the comments and I sometimes bring up students questions during podcast episodes.
