The Complete Solution IELTS Writing 2016

1

Foreword

This book has been written to provide students who are preparing for the

IELTS exam with a brief summary of how to write a report in the first part

and to write an effective essay in the second part of the IELTS writing section.

It helps IELTS learners have thorough insights into the structure as well as the

style necessary to answer a variety of different types of writing that

commonly appear in the exam.

The way this book is organized is quite clear and simple. The general

understanding of the task’s requirements and a common structure used to

write every type of essay in the IELTS writing task 1 & 2 will be primarily

presented in order for students to grab hold of the overall idea of how they

should divide their essays into a few key paragraphs. Then the complete

guidance of how to ace each particular type of essay will instruct students to

effectively study for the real exam.

This small guide only acts as a self-studying material and a supplement for

students’ IELTS writing courses. Therefore, it is not recommended that

students only take this book, albeit helpful and valuable, as a sole source of

preparation. Non-stop effort and diligence result in success in the real exam!
