Trang 1IELTS Writing Task 1: ways to prepare
Yesterday I suggested some good ways to prepare for writing task 2, instead of just writing full essays Here are some study ideas for task 1:
1) Print a collection of questions
Before you start writing any task 1 essays, it's a good idea to have an overview of the different types of questions that you might face Try to get paper copies (printed) of around 10 different questions - it's useful to be able to see them all in one place Your 'pack' of questions should include: a line graph, bar chart, pie chart, table, 2 different charts, 3 or more similar charts, process diagram, comparison diagram, life cycle, map
2) Practise parts of essays
Instead of writing a full essay, try writing 10 introductions - one for each of the questions
in your 'pack' (see point 1 above) The next time you are studying, just focus on
writing overviews On a different day, practise describing percentages, or comparing numbers etc
3) Use 'model' sentences
In last week's lesson I showed you some model sentences for describing percentages If you look through my task 1 essays in the lessons on this site, you'll find all the sentence structures you need for the 10 question types mentioned in point 1 Use my sentences as models, and simply change the content according to the topic
