Read the answers of a speaker below:

Question: What do you like to cook?

Answer: Nowadays, I don’t actually do much cooking. I never always eat in the student canteen. But when I was living at home, I helped my mother with cooking. I used to make salad and cook the pasta and so on.

Question: What do you do to keep fit?

Answers: Nothing special, I’m afraid. I mean, when I was younger, I used to do quite a lot of running and things. When I was in school, I did a bit of sports.

The use of expressions called fluency markers helped the speakers sound fluent and natural.

1. 'To be honest I don't like cooking much at all. I'm afraid I'm not very good at it. Though I do quite like making snacks and sandwiches and so on.'

2 'Well, actually, I don't get much time for exercise these days. I mean, I work long hours most days and I just don't get the chance, really.'

3 'Well, I suppose I like documentaries best, but they have to be on interesting topics, of course.' 

Few fluency markers which you can use in your speaking: 

1. To be honest

2. I’m afraid

3. And so on

4. Actually, I

5. I mean,
