Find out everything you need to know today.
There are two question types for the Writing Task 1 General Exam.
Sometimes you have to write a formal letter, to a bank manager for example.
Sometimes you have to write a letter to a friend.
The question was:
“In the informal letter to what extent should it be informal? “
Our answer:
Yes, slang is allowed. Bad IELTS teachers will tell you that you can’t use slang but that’s a lie.
To get your 7 you need to use informal phrases.
You need appropriate vocabulary and you must show the examiner a range of vocabulary.
In our course we guide you in deciding whether your letter is formal or informal and then we talk about the best possible vocabulary for each one.
Please avoid general words like “stuff” or “people” because you will miss the opportunity to be more precise and specific to show your vocabulary range.
