CELPIP tip

Read this before you start

Personal Experience: choose a specific story that fits the prompt, not a generic life summary. Structure as situation → what you did → result. Past tense and sensory detail help you fill the 60-second recording naturally.

Use the Talking about personal experience tips for "Unusual Weather Event."

Instructions

You will talk about an unusual weather event you experienced.

You have one minute to prepare and two minutes to speak.

Speak clearly about what happened, when it occurred, and how it affected you.
