Re: Could you please correct my Ielts writing task 2

Unfortunately your first sentence does not add up "Human beings have been raised a hope about an ideal society since the early age of human civilization" It could have been better written "Human beings have always hoped to be in an ideal society ever since the early ages of human civi...

Re: Hi! I'm new..Pls give me some feedbacks. Thanks!

Your introduction is weak to some extent. You could have written those 3 sentences as follows to captivate the reader. The first line is a paraphrase of the topic but good enough. "The rise in weight and obesity is a major public health concern. Obesity is a known risk factor for numerous healt...

Re: Please put comments On my Task 1 as Iam going for exam o

It is important that your introduction is more catchy. First of all, "gratitude" is lacking towards your friend. He as offered to help you, look after your pet and your house. In addition, there is no hook in the introduction. Your second paragraph describes things in general but you have ...

Re: Results !

Congrats nilevol. I would say your scores are great.
There is certainly improvement in your writing.
If you feel your Task 2 was good, then I would assume balance would have shifted because of Task 1.
However, both matter if you are aiming at band 7. Hope you had a good letter.
