4.10 EXPERIENCES
I recommend students to focus on people, places, and objects first. This is because
these aspects can be used when you discuss experiences. Experiences often occur with
other people, in particular places, and involve objects such as equipment. Therefore,
there are lots of ideas and language from the three previous sections on people,
places, and objects that can be used here:
Who: get ideas from the previous section on people
Where: get ideas from the previous section on places
What you need: get ideas from the previous section on objects
ADDITIONAL ASPECTS
When: during my
childhood, when I was an adolescent, in my twenties
Why: chill-out, necessary in order to…, unavoidable
What happened: before the experience, during the experience, after the experience
Your feeling: nervous, bored to death, terrified

Model answer
Describe a challenge that you faced at high school
You should say:
what the problem was
how
it happened
how
you felt about this problem
and explain how you felt when you solved the problem
I'm going to talk about the challenge I faced to pass the exams I had to take for
university entrance. In my country every student has to take exams in order to get
into a university.
I'd like to begin by highlighting the fact that whilst my
grades were always high, I had
always been terrible at mathematics and always struggled to get passing grades.
Unfortunately for me, this was one of the most critical subjects that I needed to pass
in order to get into a tertiary institution.
