Good luck to all ! study hard
ndmmxiaomayi SG Don't talk about chim words. Get your pronunciation right first. Words like father, mother, tree, three, photography, words ending with s, ed and t.
bounce34 SG true pronunciation is very important in oral, and of course full-stop , comma and study. Dont speak monotonous.. "Let speak loud with tone, we all.."
Agenda SG English still got chim words meh? Remember to write in British English spelling or you can kiss your paper bye bye
dahliamorie SG I thought if you write in american english, it has to be american english throughout the whole paper. They won't mark you wrong spelling for that.
Classyfied SG i m having a bad cough now..throat very itchy..i scared later eading the passage i suddenly cough then give the examiner a bad impression
livebyfaith SG articulation,pronunciation. must remember this two. as well as commas,fullstop,? all these are important. all the best to those who will be taking.
DoomForc3 SG i take on friday already... picture is abt the scene of a airport got reporters and cameraman.. conversation they ask u to tok about a experience where u dont have confidence in urself and another experience where u have alot of confidence..and also ask u abt the advantages and disadvantages of being famous..
manyu882 SG speak moderatly. approx: 3 words/sec. the chim words dont need to pronounce accurately also can(cos they are just there to distinguish A1 or A2 students)the most important is concentrate on your fluency. describe in detail.. assume things so u can talk more until the 2 teachers very sian.eg. what might happen later or before. dont assume stuffs when they are obviously not. eg. if u see a boy and u tell the teachers that they look like girls. direct the teachers which portion of the pic u are talking about. eg. In the left corner. Be confident. and positive thinking.
ndmmxiaomayi SG Nope. It's not compulsory to write in British English. However, you need to standardize your spelling. Don't have some British spellings here, American spellings elsewhere in your essay. If you use British English, use British English all the way. Same for American English.
missqi SG REMEMBER. Pronounciation/articulation. Use a bit of bombastic words for good measure; MAKE SURE they are relevant and NOT overly bombastic; whch can be extremely corny if you don't know how to use them. Remember, DON'T fake an accent. It does not make you an A1. It only serves to show what a phoney you are. Besides, most Singaporeans can't do decent accents. Don't be overly nervous; the examiners are not there to fail you.
