Hello Pooja,

Ryan has lots of useful videos: "https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid ... %20youtube" and also in my signature you can see a link to a free website I am making.

Did you take the exam before and when is your exam?

Kind regards,

Philip.

my handwriting is legible ,i guess i have to b true to myself,i might need more practice in terms lexical resources n presentation of ideas.i took coaching for a month n watched videos on you tube ,i knew the set patterns n strategies of writing.i lacked in practice .my visa demanded l-8 s-8,i think i focused more on these modules n failed in achieving 7 in writing.now,i have to concentrate on each module smartly beside working hard.

As an experienced IELTS teacher (started about 5.5-6 years ago by Skype), I would recommend trying to make each letter or word clearly legible, so that only one option is possible to read.
