Sometimes you may not notice some keywords in the question. That’s why you are advised to read the question at least 3-4 times. • First, analyze what type of questions they are asking. Understand whether it is an opinion, discussion, or another type of essay. Analyze the question with your full knowledge. Remember all the relevant information about the essay question. Just answer it what it asks you to do.

  9. PLAN YOUR ANSWERS • When it comes to essay writing, planning is very important. I suggest the candidates to spend at least 5-10 minutes planning their answers before starting writing. Because most of the students lose their marks when they don’t plan properly.  • It is a good habit, and this gives you the confidence to start writing. You have to plan the structure of the essay, main content, supporting content, and conclusion before you start writing. Try to write down important keywords related to the essay; it will help you if you forget something important. • ANSWER IN YOUR OWN WORDS • Don’t write memorized answers. As the examiner has experience in finding textbook answers. Try to insert your own words in between your answers.  • The textbook answers will reduce your targeted band score. If you are not confident about your content, then modify the textbook answers according to you. Just don’t copy the same as present in the books.

  10. MAKE THE INTRODUCTION CLEAR • The introduction is a first impression of your essay writing. This will tell the examiner whether you understand the question or not. Don’t include too much stuff in the introduction part. Keep it simple and clear.  • This is the fifth tip on how to start IELTS writing task 2. • ADD BOLD WORDS TO YOUR ESSAY • In opinion essays or point-of-view essays, you must include bold words to express your points. Some of the words are, • I agree…, • I disagree that…, • I believe…, • I do not believe…,

  12. AVOID GRAMMAR MISTAKES • Grammar plays a vital role in essay writing. The examiner can find grammatical errors easily, as it is easy to spot. Don’t use any vocabulary whose meaning and spelling you are unsure about.  • You can use the common because word instead of that to avoid errors. As using common words is better than using wrong words. • RECHECK YOUR ANSWERS • Always try to finish your writing part 5 minutes before the time. Spend those five minutes rechecking your essay. • Look for some grammatical errors. • Notice whether you made spelling errors or not. • Check the structure of the essay. • If you missed any keywords, try to fill that in.
