About this ebook
This book puts a powerful tool in the hands of serious students who are determined to achieve a high IELTS band score. Its aim is to help the candidate improve their band score by providing high quality examples, explanations and analysis of IELTS Academic Task 1 and Task 2 writing.
Achieving a high IELTS band is not easy! Ignore books that tell you otherwise. It is a difficult job which requires both patience and determination. IELTS Writing tasks, in particular, demand hard work with plenty of practice.
There is a vast quantity of freely-available IELTS study material around but what IELTS candidates need are clear task responses that they can model their writing on, explanations about how to attempt questions and detailed analysis about ideas and language.
Books on writing techniques and tips will get you so far but one of the most powerful ways of making sure your writing matches up to the high standards of IELTS is to study very good responses to Writing Task 1 (Describing Data) and Task 2 (Writing an Essay). By studying models, you can see how descriptions and arguments are developed, how key points are stressed and how appropriate language clothes ideas.
*Eight IELTS Task 1 models are presented that cover the types of descriptive tasks that need to be attempted. These include models for tables of data, line graphs, bar charts and diagrams. Each task is presented in color and very closely reflects the types of Task 1 questions you will meet. By following the models and reading the detailed analysis contained in the feedback notes for each task, you will begin to understand what is required of you.
*Eight IELTS Task 2 models are provided along with detailed feedback notes which will show you how arguments are built up, how single-topic paragraphs are essential, how conclusions are drawn and how language needs to flow. Again, these varied tasks are very similar in wording and content to what you will experience in your IELTS exam.
This is the first book for the Academic Module in the “Models for High Band Scores” series is specifically aimed at those who are serious about their IELTS exams and determined to reach their goal of going on to further academic studies or qualifying for entry to another country.

Introduction
How this book can help increase your score
The IELTS Academic Writing Module book has been created for IELTS Academic Exam candidates who want to achieve a high score in the Writing Module. Not only does the book present models for writing very good responses to Tasks 1 & 2, it also provides notes to detail what a candidate must do for a high band score. Often candidates will lose valuable marks because they are not aware of what is required. This book will help the reader to avoid common IELTS Writing mistakes.
Close study of model answers with extended commentary is a powerful way of improving writing skills because the reader can see how arguments are developed, how vocabulary is used and how language is used to address the exact requirements of the task.
Using this book
The book is divided into two sections: Task One & Task Two for IELT Academic Writing. Each section has eight IELTS Writing tasks with a complete sample model and detailed notes for each task.
The tasks reflect very closely the type and range of questions that are in the IELTS Writing Exam. Task 1 about describing data includes examples of tables of data, bar charts, line graphs and diagrams while Task 2 includes a range of topics that frequently appear in the IELTS exam.
The writing models are examples of very good responses to the task which would score very highly in the exam. The detailed notes that follow each response focus on understanding the task and what is required for a good response. Task achievement, cohesion and coherence, vocabulary use, and grammar use are also noted in the model.
