Describe a time you made a promise to someone IELTS Cue Card

You should say:

• What the promise was
• To whom you made it
• Whether it was easy or difficult to keep
• And explain why you made it

1. What the promise was

I promised my younger sister that I would help her prepare for her final school exams, especially in math, which she was struggling with. I committed to tutoring her every evening for at least an hour, no matter how busy my schedule got.

2. To whom you made it

I made this promise to my younger sister. She was feeling overwhelmed and anxious about her upcoming exams, and since I had a good grasp of the subjects she was struggling with, she turned to me for support.

3. Whether it was easy or difficult to keep

Honestly, it was quite difficult to keep at times. I was juggling my own studies and part-time job, and there were days I felt completely drained. However, I knew how much my support meant to her, so I pushed through and stayed consistent with the tutoring sessions.

4. And explain why you made it

I made the promise because I could see how much pressure she was under and how much she needed someone to believe in her. I wanted to be that person. I knew that even a little bit of guidance and emotional support could make a big difference in her confidence and performance.
