B. Sample IELTS Speaking Part 2 – Chủ đề Describe Your Mother
Describe A Family member who you spend the most time with
You should say:
Sample 1
I am going to talk about my mom – a person I spend the most time with. Her name is Ngoc Diep, which can be literally translated into English as ‘Golden Leave’. Although she was already in her early sixties, she looked pretty much younger with a fine figure and, surprisingly, not a lot of wrinkles and grey hair to be found. She really knows how to dress smartly, and that was why my dad fell for her the very moment he laid his eyes on her when they were younger (laugh).
One of the things that most impressed me about her was the fact that she still remained perfectly exuberant and charismatic, which was quite rare for elderly people at her age. We do a lot of window-shopping every weekend, and every once in a while I and my mom go to the cinema for some musicals and romantic movies we both love.
As a young woman myself, I often confide in her whenever I have problems. Whether it be trivial matters at work or big life decisions, I always turn to her for advice. It is not an overstatement to say that without her, my life would be a huge mess.

Sample 2
I have got a nuclear family that has only five members. We obviously have our own difference and sometimes we fight but all of us love each other very much. We share a strong bond and affection. It’s pretty hard to pinpoint one out but if I have to, I would like to describe my mother.
She’s possibly the first one I saw when I opened my eyes to this world. I love her to the bottom of my heart. I respect her intelligence and her loving nature. She is definitely the kindest person I have ever and will ever met. She is perky, charismatic, optimistic and the ray of sunshine in my life.
To describe how she influenced me, I’d say it’s her parenting method that make me become who I am at the moment. She taught me patience, honesty and hard work brings success. I spent 18 years living with my parents and those virtues are our living motto until now. I am currently living alone now but whenever I have a chance, I’ll always visit my parents and tell them everything. My mother gives great advice.
The reason I admire her, well – she is caring, compassionate, and possesses kindness and love for everyone. She is an ideal mother who raised all of her children and ensured their quality education and moral values. She has sacrificed a lot and had never complained about anything to us. Thank you for listening
