Hello, lovely.
I'm Maria, and my name is Rory, and we are the hosts of the IELTS speaking for Success podcast, the podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills.
Along the way, we started this podcast to give you a look at how a native speaker could answer some of the most common ielts speaking questions for a high score or Venn nine score.
Rory, you're late today, and you've overslept.
I know, I'm sorry.
I almost forgot.
Hmm.
Shall we talk about memory?
Yeah, it seems appropriate.
It's a coincidence.
On this podcast, again, not manufactured at all.
Memory.
We are a factory of coincidences.
Coincidence is an irony.
Rory, do you have a good memory?
I have a better one than I did since I started organizing everything in my head.
So I organise my head and my life and my days more effectively.
Now I have a routine and a planner, and I take notes a lot, and that helps greatly.
Do you have a good memory for faces?
I have a memory for faces, but I don't have a memory for names or numbers.
