Describe a lesson that impressed you a lot.

You should say:

• What the lesson was about
• Where you took the lesson
• What you did in the lesson

One lesson that really impressed me was about the importance of teamwork. It happened during a summer camp I attended when I was in high school. The camp was held in a beautiful forest area, and the lesson took place outdoors under a big tree. The teacher, Mr. Johnson, divided us into small groups and gave each group a puzzle to solve. The catch was that no one could speak while working on the puzzle. We had to use gestures and eye contact to communicate. At first, it was very frustrating because we couldn’t talk, but slowly, we started to understand each other’s signals. By the end of the lesson, my group finished the puzzle first, and it felt amazing. Mr. Johnson explained that teamwork isn’t just about talking; it’s about listening and understanding others in different ways. This lesson stayed with me because it was fun, challenging, and taught me something valuable. I still remember the excitement of solving the puzzle without words!

When answering the IELTS Speaking Part 2 question about a lesson that impressed you, here's how to structure your response: First, introduce the lesson by saying what it was about—maybe it was a science class, a language lesson, or something creative. Then, mention where you took it, like at school, a community center, or online. Next, describe what you did in the lesson—did you do experiments, practice speaking, or work on a project? Make sure to include details that show why it impressed you, like how it changed your thinking or was really fun. Keep your answer smooth by linking ideas with words like 'because,' 'so,' or 'for example.' Also, focus on speaking clearly and naturally, and don't forget to use past tense since you're talking about something that already happened. Practice timing yourself to fit all this into 2 minutes!
