IELTS TUTOR gợi ý bài tham khảo:

Today, I would like to tell you about a person who has truly inspired me throughout my life – my incredibly resilient mother (người mẹ kiên cường phi thường – a mother who shows great strength and determination). She’s not only the backbone of our family but also the one who pushed me beyond my limits (thúc đẩy tôi vượt qua giới hạn – encouraged me to go further than I thought possible) to help me achieve one of the most significant goals in my life – getting a high score in the IELTS exam to study abroad.

At that time, I was going through a nerve-racking (gây căng thẳng – extremely stressful and difficult) phase in my life. I had failed the IELTS several times, and my confidence was at an all-time low. However, my mother stood by me like a steadfast pillar of strength (trụ cột vững chắc – someone who offers continuous emotional support). She would stay up with me during my late-night study sessions, prepare nutritious meals, and offer constant words of encouragement.

What truly moved me (làm tôi cảm động – emotionally touched me) was that she never once uttered a word of complaint (phàn nàn – to express dissatisfaction), even though I had to retake the exam multiple times, which was both financially and emotionally draining. Her unwavering support (sự ủng hộ không lay chuyển – consistent and strong support) and boundless patience (sự kiên nhẫn vô tận – unlimited ability to stay calm) gave me the emotional stamina to keep going.>> Form đăng kí giải đề thi thật IELTS 4 kĩ năng kèm bài giải bộ đề 100 đề PART 2 IELTS SPEAKING quý đang thi (update hàng tuần) từ IELTS TUTOR

She always reminded me that no dream is too far-fetched (không có giấc mơ nào quá viển vông – every dream is achievable). She also had a very persuasive way of explaining things (cách giải thích đầy thuyết phục – convincing manner of speaking), often giving me real-life examples of individuals who had aced the IELTS (đạt điểm cao xuất sắc – got a very high score) despite challenging circumstances. Her words really struck a chord (gây tiếng vang – resonated deeply) with me and gradually helped rebuild my confidence.

Thanks to her unrelenting dedication (sự tận tụy không ngừng – constant and determined care) and selfless devotion (sự cống hiến vị tha – putting others’ needs before one’s own), I was able to pull myself together, work harder, and eventually scored high enough to gain admission to a foreign university.

To sum up, my mother is not just someone I admire – she is my lifelong source of inspiration (nguồn cảm hứng suốt đời – someone who continuously motivates me). Her sacrifices, wisdom, and emotional strength have shaped who I am today. I truly believe that behind every success story, there’s often a silent hero, and for me, that hero is undoubtedly my mom.

1. What qualities make a good role model?

A good role model should possess unshakable integrity (unshakable integrity – sự chính trực không thể lay chuyển – unwavering commitment to honesty), which helps them earn long-lasting respect (long-lasting respect – sự tôn trọng bền lâu – enduring admiration from others); for instance, someone like Malala Yousafzai demonstrates moral courage despite adversity.
They also need to be emotionally resilient (emotionally resilient – khả năng phục hồi cảm xúc tốt – able to stay calm under pressure), so they can inspire others by overcoming setbacks, such as when Oprah Winfrey turned her trauma-filled childhood (trauma-filled childhood – tuổi thơ đầy tổn thương – a youth marked by emotional or physical pain) into strength.

2. Who influences kids more: parents or teachers?

I think parents shape children's core values (core values – các giá trị cốt lõi – fundamental beliefs) more deeply, since they are involved in daily life and instill behavior through constant role modeling (role modeling – hành vi làm gương – setting an example); for example, respectful children often come from homes that emphasize politeness.
However, teachers have a formative influence (formative influence – ảnh hưởng hình thành nhân cách – influence that contributes to development), especially during school years, because their structured guidance (structured guidance – sự hướng dẫn có hệ thống – organized educational support) often introduces new perspectives, like critical thinking in literature class.>> tham khảo CẦN VIẾT & THU ÂM BAO NHIÊU BÀI ĐỂ ĐẠT 8.0 SPEAKING & 7.0 WRITING?

3. Can online classes motivate students?

Online classes can be highly engaging (highly engaging – hấp dẫn cao – very interesting and interactive) when platforms use gamified learning (gamified learning – học qua trò chơi – educational content presented through game elements), which turns lessons into fun challenges that boost participation, like Duolingo’s badge system.
On the flip side, the lack of in-person accountability (lack of in-person accountability – thiếu trách nhiệm trực tiếp – no face-to-face responsibility) can cause students to procrastinate or lose focus, especially if they lack self-directed learning skills (self-directed learning skills – kỹ năng tự học – the ability to study independently), as seen during the COVID lockdown.
