When I was studying for my CELPIP exam I got material from them. Unfortunately, I can not put the PDF to the public because it has a watermark with my personal email. But I can put you here what it says.

CELPIP's thirtieth error as they state:

In the CELPIP Speaking Test, you will be asked to respond to a series of questions about many different things. Some questions are related to illustrations or conversations, while others ask about your preferences or opinions. It is important to answer each question in a clear and organized fashion. When test takers don't organize their ideas, they have difficulty developing the topic. The listener also has to work harder to identify and follow the ideas.

In an organized response, ideas flow together in a logical, sequential, or easy-to-understand manner, and the listener can easily understand your meaning. Before you start your response, you should use up to twenty seconds to organize what you want to say. Use the paper and pencil provided to note down key ideas and order them logically. The chart below provides some guidance on how to approach some, but not all, questions types on the CELPIP Speaking Test.

CELPIP's twentieth-ninth error as they state:

The CELPIP Speaking Test measures your ability to communicate in spoken English. Test takers are evaluated on many factors, including relevance and depth of meaning. A common error during the Speaking component is replying to test prompts without providing enough descriptive detail.

Test takers who do well on the Speaking Test reply to test prompt directly, but then they go on to support their answers with relevant details. For example, if you are asked to name your favourite season and you reply simply, "summer," your answer would be considered undeveloped and be lacking supporting details You should say why summer is your favourite season and provide a series of examples. For instance, you could say, "I like summer because it's warm and I can be outside more," and so on.

Try to make sure the details you provide in your answers are relevant to the test prompt. No matter how many supporting details you give, if you aren't answering the question asked or following the instructions given, you will lose marks. The best way to stay on topic is to read the test prompt carefully.

CELPIP's twentieth-eighth error as they state:

Stress is the emphasis placed on certain syllables within words. Stressed syllables are longer, clearer, and higher in pitch than unstressed syllables. For example, with the two-syllable word little, the stress is on the first syllable, i.e., li-ttle. Changing the stress in a word can change its meaning, as demonstrated here with console: console = the front panel of a car; console = the comfort someone.
