Many IELTS students think that Writing Task 2 is the most complicated part of the exam.

But the truth is… Most people don’t know how SIMPLE it really can be!

In this special video, I’ll take you through my hometown in Northern Ireland where I’ll show you how easy it can be to generate ideas and answer this question:

“Many people like to go on holiday abroad, while others believe it is better to visit places within their own country.

Discuss both views and give your own opinion.”

Throughout this video and my walk through the woods 🌲, I’ll teach you how to:

📝 Fully understand any Task 2 question
💡 Come up with ideas quickly and easily
📑 Develop your ideas into main body paragraphs

At the very end, I’ll show you how to apply what you’ve learned so you can write main body paragraphs that could help you score a Band 7, 8 or 9 in IELTS Writing Task 2!

Make sure to complete the task at the end of the lesson and post it in the comments below 👇

Looking forward to reading your responses!

Your questions answered:

📚 No! You should not use idioms in Writing Task 2.

❓ Is it possible for me to score a Band 8?
📚 Yes! However, the average IELTS score is 5.5, so you need to work EXTRA hard to get a Band 8.

Introduction - Main Body Paragraph 1 - Main Body Paragraph 2 - Conclusion

❓ Will I lose marks if I don’t write enough words?

📚 Yes. If you don’t write at least 250 words, you will lose marks in ‘Task Achievement’ for not answering the question fully:(
