IELTS Speaking Part 2: Describe a foreign language

1. Describe a second foreign language you would like to learn
2. Describe a skill that took you a long time to learn


I would like to talk about a skill that took a long time to learn which is to learn a new language. In my case, that is English. Although it is one of the compulsory subjects at school, I am struggling to master all four skills like an English speaker.

There are many reasons that make it difficult to master. First of all, there is big difference in grammar usage between English and Vietnamese. While Vietnamese grammar is quite simple, English has many tenses and grammar structure to remember. The second reason is about pronunciation. For example, in English we have to really pay attention to the stress on syllable which we do not have in our mother tongue. If we pronounce wrong, nobody will be able to understand us no matter how good our grammar and vocabulary are. Thanks to advance in technology, it is now easier than ever for one to learn English anytime anywhere via internet, phone apps or English centers across our country.

Since English has become very popular nowadays. It is helpful for us to be able to speak English fluently. With good English skill, we have more chances to get better jobs, go study abroad or travel the world.
