Hello, sunshine.
I'm Maria, and my name is Rory, and we are the host of the IELTS Speaking for Success podcast, a podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills.
Along the way, we've started this podcast to give you joy, smiley faces, and gorgeous grammar with super vocabulary for your high ielts school.
Rory, where are you?
It's very dark out there.
Yeah, it's a pretty overcast day today, and we're moving into autumn, so that's not great.
Oh, shall we talk about the weather?
The weather?
To cheer ourselves up?
Yes, the weather.
It's a recent ielts speaking part one topic.
I think it's a comeback.
So, with the weather here and now, you know, ielts, people maybe enjoy talking about the weather.
So here it is with us again, the weather.
What's the grammar?
Focus.
So, today, because we want to be describing the perfect kind of weather, we're focusing on the perfect aspect today when we look back on events from where.
We currently are, Rory and I have a joke for you.
Are you ready?
No.
