Learn how to improve your IELTS writing score over 6 weeks. We will focus on Task 2 (essay) writing. These lessons are interactive and you will get the chance to practice your skills and not just listen to the teacher! I will include homework after every lesson so that you can practice what we discussed in the lesson and improve. Each week we will focus on a specific part of the IELTS writing test. The schedule will be as follows: Lesson 1 - QUESTION TYPES: Learn how to identify different types of questions. Discover how the type of question changes the kind of language you need to include in your essay. Work together to discuss different questions and complete tasks. Lesson 2 - GENERATING IDEAS & PLANNING: Learn some useful techniques to help you think of ideas. Find out how you should develop your ideas and add examples. Practice planning your answers and sharing them with the teacher and other students. Lesson 3 - WRITING INTRODUCTIONS: Learn how to write an effective and focused introduction to get your essay off to a strong start! You will have an opportunity to practice writing an introduction and receive feedback from the teacher. Lesson 4 - BODY PARAGRAPHS: Learn the structure of a good body paragraph and practice using different linking words and phrases to improve your score for cohesion and coherence. Lesson 5 - CONCLUSION: Learn how to summarize your ideas and end your essay appropriately. You will have the chance to read example conclusions and write your own. Lesson 6 - REVIEW & ANALYSIS: Learn useful techniques to identify and correct mistakes in your grammar and vocabulary. Learn how to correctly make corrections (especially on the paper-based test). Understand how and why certain common mistakes affect your score.

These lessons will help you improve your IELTS writing score. The lessons are designed to help both students who have taken the IELTS before and those who are taking it for the first time. At the end of this course you will have a clear understanding of HOW to write your IELTS essay. The lessons will not focus on 'tricks' or 'hidden techniques' because these do not exist and will always fail. Instead the lessons will focus on actionable advice that will help you really improve your IELTS score. **IMPORTANT**I recommend joining all of the lessons but I realize that may not be possible. Therefore, it is possible to join individual lessons. However, please understand that the course works best if you attend all lessons.
