Re: Children health is bad compared to the past what is the cause and how we can address the problem IELTS
Hello! Hazardous materials? The solution - Well, for IELTS T2 this is an acceptable solution, but it's not that good. I teach a lot of teenagers and they all - 100% - know that fast food is unhealthy. So, is more education the answer? (By the way, I couldn't find your 'statistics' online and I suspe...

Hello! This is a good essay. Your points are clear and well supported. I think that you could have reasserted them briefly in the conclusion, but that's a minor point. Vocabulary is very good throughout the essay (e.g. natural calamities, avante garde, corporate leaders, accomplishing these goals - ...

Re: Task 2 review needed: Location for New homes and accommodation ?
Hello!
This is a very good essay. Points are clear and supported. Vocabulary and grammar are very good, with relatively few errors. Make sure that you mention which city you are referring to (District 2?). Organisation of paragraphs and within paragraphs is very good - very clear.
Well done!

Re: Task 2 (pros and cons of allowing children to work{opinion essay})
Hello! A reasonable essay, but you only get to the core issue in the conclusion, i.e. too late! Which sorts of work is it appropriate for children to do? What age should the children be? These are the points that will distinguish an average essay from a good or very good one. Vocabulary is good and ...

Re: I have question for Examiners of this blog
Hello! It depends on what score you are aiming for. Each examiner marks a lot of papers, so templates are easily spotted. Most candidates are aiming for 6/6.5 so using a template is generally fine for them, but if you are aiming higher, I'd avoid them. Most candidates make the mistake of using the t...

Hello!
This is a good letter. The second and third points are covered and vocabulary and grammar are good both in terms of accuracy and range. However, the first point is not well covered - it's just a watch! You can buy watches for $10.
Always be sure to give details!
All the best,
