1. MOREOVER, DEMERITS, HENCE / THUSLY
I ban my students from using certain words in the IELTS test The easiest way for me to explain why I ban these words is that most native speakers wouldn't use them if they were doing the test Here are a few of my least favourites: Moreover - Native speakers hardly ever use this word, and students tend to use
it wrongly Just use 'furthermore' or 'also'
Demerits - It's ok to talk about the 'merits' of something, but the word
'demerits' seems unnatural Just use 'disadvantages' or 'drawbacks'
Hence / Thusly - These words sound too formal and old-fashioned Just use 'therefore' or 'as a result'

2. IN A NUTSHELL, IN SUMMARY OR TO SUMMARISE
You need to send a SIGNAL to the examiner that you are making the conclusion
to your
essay I like the phrase in conclusion best I suggest you just use this as it can be used for ALL
THREE types of essays The more you can avoid the need to have to remember and correctly
apply different phrases for each type of essay the better I really hate in a
nutshell I think
Trang 2other people may hate this, so I don’t recommend it It is not impressive; I feel
it is a cliché,
or an overused phrase I also don’t feel it is formal If you say in summary or to summarise
my main points you will have to not use these phrases with certain types of essays For
instance, with a both sides and opinion essay you are not really summarising your main
points in the final paragraph, you are giving your own opinion

3. CANNOT BE DENIED
Avoid words like "Cannot be denied" in an academic writing
In the academic world nothing is undeniable Of course it can be denied…
People deny that there is gravity… People deny that the world is older than 10,000 years [many Christians]… Aboriginal Australians believe that they were born out of the earth… And deny the whole concept of evolution

4 ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, TO SUM UP, IN SUMMARY, TO SUMMARIZE,
IN SHORT, IN A NUTSHELL,TO PUT IT IN A NUTSHELL
don't use these phrases
When writing a conclusion for task 2, I always start with the words "In
conclusion" There's no reason why you should learn any alternatives
Here are some phrases that I would not use:
All things considered
To sum up
In summary
To summarize
In short
In a nutshell
To put it in a nutshell
Note:
Phrases 1 to 5 are acceptable, but I still wouldn't use them myself
Don't use any phrase containing the word "nutshell" 6 and 7 are not
appropriate for an academic essay

5. STRIKINGLY (IELTS WRITING TASK 1)
Using the word ‘strikingly’ can be seen as a personal opinion and not gained by looking at the chart This can lower Task Response

6. NOWADAYS, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT, RECENT SURVEYS SHOW THAT, FACTS SHOW THAT SAY, THINK,
