Some advice to help you avoid common mistakes in IELTS writing task 1:

1. Don't copy the question for your introduction. You should paraphrase the question (i.e. rewrite it using some different words). 2. Don't forget to separate your paragraphs clearly. 3. Don't forget to write a good summary/overview of the information.

A quick one-sentence conclusion is not good enough. I prefer to put the overview straight after the introduction, and I try to write 2 sentences describing the information in general. You won't get a high score if you don't write a good overview. 4. Don't describe items separately (e.g. 2 lines on a graph). You

should always try to compare things if it is possible to do so. Instead of describing 2 lines separately, compare the 2 lines at key points. 5. Don't try to describe every number on a chart or graph (unless

there are only a few numbers). A key skill in task 1 is being able to select the key information and describe or compare it well. I usually mention around 6 or 7 numbers in my main paragraphs. 6. Don't spend longer than 20 minutes on task 1. Practise spending

5 minutes on each of your 4 paragraphs. Stop yourself after 20 minutes; remember that task 2 is worth more marks.

The overview / summary is a very important part of your task 1 report. Many people have no trouble describing specific details, but they find it difficult to describe the general features of a graph, chart or diagram. So here are my tips on how to write a good overview:

1. Always try to write two sentences. This forces you to

describe two main or general features of the graph, chart or diagram. 2. Don't put any numbers in your overview. Save specific numbers

for the 'details' paragraphs. 3. If the graph or chart shows a time period (e.g. years), look for the

overall change from the beginning to the end of the period (e.g. from the first year to the last year). 4. Look for overall trends, and ignore individual figures that don't fit

the trend. For example, if a graph shows a rising trend overall, you can ignore a specific year when the figures decreased - save that year for your 'details' paragraphs. 5. If no time period is shown, you can't look for trends. Instead, look

for differences and similarities between items. 6. Don't look for individual 'highest' or 'lowest' figures such as a

'peak' on a line graph. Instead, describe the highest and lowest items overall (e.g. which line on the graph was the highest for the whole or most of the period?). 7. Start your overview with a simple phrase that clearly shows the

examiner that this is your summary paragraph e.g. It is clear that... , It is noticeable that... , Overall we can see that... 8. If there are two different charts, write one overview sentence

about each chart. 9. If there are more than two charts, they must be connected in

some way, so look for two main features overall. 10. If the task is to describe a diagram or map that compares things,

you can mention the main differences and maybe the number of differences and / or similarities between the two diagrams. 11. If the task is to describe a process diagram, you can mention

the total number of stages …
