Do you think young people organize their time in the same way?
No, I don't. I think that's too general of a question. I believe everyone organizes
their time in different ways. However, young people tend to have heavy work
and study schedules, so they may not be able to manage their time and tasks
as well as someone who doesn't. So, in this case, young people have to
prioritize(decide what is most important) more.
IELTS Speaking: Talking About Time Management
Time management is a practical topic often seen in Part 1 and 3. You might be asked about routines, priorities, or planning.
Useful Vocabulary
a tight schedule, a deadline, prioritise tasks
put things off, procrastinate, run out of time
make a to-do list, set aside time for, stick to a routine
Example Questions
Are you good at managing your time?
Do you usually plan your day in advance?
Do you think people are busier now than in the past?
Sample Speaking Part 2 Prompt
Describe a time when you had to finish something in a hurry. You should say:
what you had to do
why time was short
how you managed it
and explain what you would do differently now
Tips
Admitting that you sometimes put things off sounds more natural than claiming to be perfectly organised, and it gives you more to say.
