APTIS Speaking Part 2: Example Answer for Questions #1
Describe this picture. 
In this picture, I can see a girl who is doing a lesson online. The teacher is explaining something, and the girl is 
listening and taking notes. The lecturer has drawn a weekly calendar on the board which makes me think that she is 
learning something related to time management. I also see that she has set up a very positive learning environment by 
having bright room, having some green plants around, got a sit next to window and has all her stationary close by. On 
the right-bottom, I see a wireless mouse and seems she utilizes available technology for her best use.
1. Tell me about a time you learned something online. 
I have just completed my final year of high school and my classes were online for the second semester. It was 
really hard to pay attention, but I enjoyed my physical education class online the most because we were able to move 
around. Etc.
2. Do you think people learn better online or in classrooms? 
I definitely think people learn better in classrooms. Face-to-face interaction is really important and I think a 
teacher can help you better when they are in the same room as you. Also you can always ask the professor if there is 
something unclear and discuss topics with colleagues. The living word is the word. In my opinion blended learning is 
the real deal.
