Describe the area where you live now

The cue card

Describe the area where you live now.

You should say:

  • where it is
  • what it is like
  • what facilities it has

and explain whether you would like to keep living there.

You have one minute to prepare, then talk for one to two minutes.

  1. What makes a neighbourhood a good place to live?
  2. Is it better to live in the city centre or the suburbs?
  3. Do people know their neighbours less than before?
  4. How could your area be improved?
