Example
As an environmentally-conscious person, it has always been my dream to organize an environment-protecting program, which I would like to share with you today.
While climate change has become an accepted fact and people want to make changes, many find it difficult to take the action needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. I aim to give people both skills and understanding to enable them to reduce their environmental impacts. That is why I always have this burning desire to organize a program taking place weekly, in which my I would open crafting workshops for children, plant more trees around the neighborhood, and introduce the locals some accessible methods of organic gardening, water conservation, and of course, energy conservation.
To embark on the project, I contacted many non-government organizations and corporates. But despite my best efforts, I have failed to generate sufficient funds. I think I have not followed the right strategy to achieve my aim. Besides, I’m still up to ears with a lot of work so and haven’t got enough time to realize my dreams.
My attempts in fund raising, in my opinion, haven’t gone beyond the conventional domain so I haven’t achieved my goals yet. But there is no doubting that social media has made inroads in our lives so I’ve decided to launch a social media campaign to raise awareness about my project. This initiative would assist me in raising finances as well as recruiting volunteers. Another thing I would do is team up with a well-known agency because it would create a good branding for my program. I’m hoping this will turn out well and that I’ll be able to raise enough money by the end of this year.

IELTS Speaking part 3: Example
1. What types of aspirations do individuals typically have?
I believe it is highly dependent on the individual. However, the bulk of us aspire to greater fame, riches, and power. For example, some people want a dream house on the beach with cutting-edge technology, while others want luxury cars, a lot of money and maybe a tour around the globe. There’s nothing wrong with having such material objectives as we plan for our next standard of living; in fact, our ambitions may serve as incentive to move forward and work harder to accomplish them. Some people, on the other hand, only aspire to have more affection and healthy relationships as that’s all they wish to achieve in life.
- Cutting-edge technology (n): công nghệ tiên tiến
- Material objectives (n): mục tiêu về vật chất
- Incentive (n): điều khích lệ
2. Is having ambitious goals beneficial for children?
Absolutely. Having clear objectives is crucial for their academic performance and success in real life. Establishing and monitoring goals teaches children vital life skills such as planning, organization, time management, as well as communication, self-awareness, and confidence. In essence, encouraging youngsters to set high aims can pave the way for their accomplishments. It provides them with a clear path to follow, ensuring tasks are prioritized effectively, freeing up time and energy for pursuing their next objectives.
3. How do ambitions differ between adults and children?
In terms of ambitions, there exists a notable disparity between youngsters and adults. Children often aim for academic goals, such as advancing in studies or achieving specific educational milestones, striving for top grades or excelling in class. Their goals become more long-term during high school, such as gaining acceptance into their top three choices of institutions or securing scholarships. On the other hand, adults may no longer prioritize academic achievements and instead pursue a variety of goals based on their lifestyles. Some aspire to fame, wealth, and a luxurious lifestyle filled with fantasies, while others seek more sentimental values.- Grade-based goal (n): mục tiêu về điểm số
- A cut above (n): người/ vật hơn hẳn những người/ vật còn lại
- Sentimental value (n): giá trị về tinh thần
