Daily IELTS Answer – A time you taught someone (Band 7.0 – Part 2)
“I’ve had lots of [experience with] some useful things, but the one that sticks out is the story how I taught my friend Donna [how] to use Instagram. Maybe a few months ago, she asked me for help it was quite weird because Instagram is quite a popular social media app, but she was so confused by all these new applications so she asked me for help and I told her how to use these functions. Firstly, we installed the app on her smartphone and I described to her all the functions, how to make posts, how to shoot live videos and so on, and now she’s quite an active user on Instagram. I see lots of new pictures and for her it was quite useful [because] she can find new students for her business and show her students success, if I had the chance to teach her something else, I would like to do it again.”
