Every month, students in our course have the opportunity to participate in the Writing Wizard Contest, and the winner gets a free 15-minute strategy session with me as well as the chance to come on the podcast.
Alejandro is the winner this month! In our strategy session, we talked about how he could more effectively learn vocabulary for his first IELTS Exam.
Before getting into our course, Alejandro had never written an academic essay.
He is going through a very effective process to improve his essays. In fact, he rewrote his winning essay 3 times before he submitted it.
Alejandro is an engineer, as is really trying to expand his vocab. beyond technical words.
He still has a month and a half before his exam, so he’s not focused on timing yet.
If you are in a similar stage as our student, follow his example. Right now, your goal is simply to write the best essay you can, using a template, high-level linking words, and fantastic vocabulary.
In a few weeks, however, you should start timing yourself.
The essay question this month was about crime, a topic in every IELTS textbook. However, be aware that this isn’t a super common topic on the IELTS Exam!
