Hello! Overall, a reasonable essay. There are plenty of grammatical errors, but the range is reasonable and the essay can be understood. However, your points are not well-developed. The points are valid, as far as I'm concerned, but you don't do well at distinguishing which are more likely (in your ...

Hello! Overall, quite good, but there are few errors that would adversely affect your score. 1. There's a sudden jump from LAPTOP bag to mobile phone. Then the mobile phone is in another bag - or do you mean 'case'? 2. Why did you leave your bag? This could affect your claim, but I don't think that'...

I think that you need to work on the grammar to get such a score.

Yes, that seems reasonable, although I think it does depend on which subject you are studying.

Brutal challenges? Which jobs are we talking about here - lion tamer or primary school teacher?

Undaunted confidence? Oh, I've met that in my life and it always turns out badly!

All the best,
David

Hello again! Well, it seems to me that people are judged by a combination of factors, including, in my personal opinion, all of those mentioned in the question statements. Let's say you meet someone and they fail to show that they are kind, honourable and trustworthy. Most likely, you are not going ...

Hello! WITH respect to... Regardless of your opinion, this essay requires you to look at letter writing in some detail - and you have not! The second paragraph, if I'm lost in a forest, a letter isn't going to help - I'm lost! In the conclusion, you refer to 'writing on paper' which is definitely no...

Hello! This is a very wide-ranging question (and very easy!) so it's unlikely to be in the test, but it's still good for preparation, particularly from the grammar/vocab point of view. You have answered the question and gone for some easy points with a little development. Grammar and vocabulary are ...

Hello! In your introduction, it might be better just to refer to air travel. You say that air travel is now affordable for everyone. Absolutely not true!!! you also don not say how this benefits communities economically. In the second main paragraph, the focus on cheap airlines is not made clearly. ...

Hello! This essay is quite good. you have presented good arguments with some development. Vocabulary and grammar are clear, despite some mistakes, and there is a good range of both. a range of connectives are used well. If I had to make one suggestion, it would be to deal with the argument that many...

Hello! Unfortunately, this seems to be becoming more common, particularly with tests taken in India and China. Quite a lot of candidates have their results delayed slightly beyond two weeks because of a discrepancy between their personal results, e.g. reading/writing, speaking/listening. However, th...

Hello! This is not such an easy question as there is quite a lot of data, but I think that you could have provided a little more detail on some of the smaller items. More importantly, the summary is not very good. You should identify key changes too. Grammar is good, despite some basic errors, altho...

Hello!

This is a very good report, with all the points included, a nice summary, good vocabulary and few grammatical errors.

Well done!
David

Hello again! Fluency - Good overall, but some 'stuttering'. As the speech is a little fast in parts, it isn't always clear how you move from point to point (This also affects coherence) Coherence - Good use of a range of connectives Vocabulary - Good with some details Grammar - Quite a lot of basic ...

Hello! The main problem here is with the grammar. There are a lot of errors - many of them basic! Vocabulary is generally good, but there are some glaring errors (owning, a reduce, moderate growing). I think that the organisation could be better - just one main paragraph? However, you have included ...

Hello! Overall, a good essay with a clear opinion. Ideas are valid and developed to some extent. I think that the first main paragraph in particular could be better developed. Organisation is clear with good use of connectives. There is a good range of vocabulary and grammar and not too many mistake...

Hello! You've picked out the trend for each brand, but there isn't clear organisation (just one main paragraph) and the summary is limited. There is some strange use of vocabulary (noticeable starting, terrible). Grammar is not so good, with numerous errors, many of them basic. Overall, not terrible...

Hello! I don't think that you have provided any real evidence to support your ideas. I mean, I've just watched Lethal Weapon and that featured plenty of justice. If you think that fame, power and authority were not values in the past, name 10 historical figures and let's see how that argument holds ...

Hello! I think that you have mixed up 'men' and 'women'. I also don't think that you have really picked out the key trends. (Look at gender and look at the months.) There's some good grammar in here and vocabulary too, but the aforementioned errors really make a negative impact on the report. All th...

Hello! Fluency - Good. Few pauses. Speech is a little fast. Coherence - Good use of connectives. Vocabulary - A little vague. Not much precise vocabulary, especially in the first example. Grammar - Good basic grammar with some complex structures. Pronunciation - Sometimes unclear, but good intonatio...

Yes, even if you write only a single word 'a', you get a score. (Not the best way to get 6+ though )
David

Hello! Not a bad essay, but it could easily be improved. There are two obvious starting points. First, compare the length of the second main paragraph with the first! That clearly tells us that the solutions aspect has barely been dealt with. This is a very common problem in IELTS T2. The 'encourage...

Hello! This is quite a good essay. You have chosen the obvious arguments (which is not always a bad thing!) and you have developed them with a good example in the first main paragraph. (I'm constantly surprised that candidates cannot produce good examples for the 'loss of culture' argument!!!) In yo...

Hello! Not such a good essay, I'm afraid ... 1. VERY long sentences (e.g. paragraph 2). 2. Some good points, but they are not developed, e.g. car use. 3. Lots of grammatical errors, some basic. The essay is not bad, but these problems mean that the answer to the questions is superficial and sometime...

Hello! Overall, this is a good letter. You have included all the points and provided some development. However, near the end of the letter, you do refer to 'the hotel'! Surely you are looking for an apartment? There is a good range of vocabulary. The range of grammar is a little limited and there ar...

Hello! A very good question! The main problem with your answer is that you point out the advantage of taking a wider variety of courses, but then totally dismiss this in your conclusion. If it is so good, you certainly must say why you don't recommend it. This quite a common problem. Many candidates...
