Hi Pelawat,

This cue card has been very popular lately. We've heard from quite a few people who got it in their Speaking test (yesterday's exam in India was just one example). So if you get it in your exam after watching the video below, it would feel like winning the lottery 😉

Here is the cue card:

Describe a tourist attraction that you have visited. You should say:

- What the attraction was

- When you visited it

- Why you went there

- And say whether you enjoyed the visit or not

Watch the video below to learn what you can say about a tourist attraction that you have visited:

How to describe a tourist attraction that you have visited

Now choose an attraction that you would like to talk about. If you can't remember visiting any tourist attractions, think of an interesting, famous place you would love to visit one day. Spend a few minutes researching it online, and you will have enough facts to use in your cue card talk. If you uncover something unusual about it, make sure to mention that - your examiner will be impressed.

Did you find this video helpful? Put a like to let me know 😉

What's next?

Pelawat, that's actually a question for YOU. Let me know what topic or question in Speaking scares you the most, and I will cover it in my next video.

Looking forward to your reply.

Warm regards,

Simone Braverman
