Two prompts that sound almost identical need two different answers, and mixing them up is why opinion questions ramble and interview stories lose their point. This guide gives you OREO for opinion and agree/disagree answers, and STAR-R for interview stories and professional storytelling, side by side so the difference is obvious before you need it live.
What’s inside:
– A when-to-use-each-framework section showing the same prompt answered two ways
– The full OREO framework (opinion, reason, example, opinion restated) with an annotated example at B2 level and a fill-in skeleton template
– The full STAR-R framework (situation, task, action, result, reflection) with annotated examples at B1-B2 and C1 level and a fill-in skeleton template
– 2 full language banks, roughly 44 phrases across both frameworks
– 4 full model answers (OREO at B2 and C1, STAR-R at B2 and C1) with annotation notes
– Skeleton templates that are blank versions of the exact structure used in the model answers
