How to get band 7 in IELTS Writing Task 2

Most candidates who are stuck at 6.0 lose marks on Task Response, not grammar. Here is a simple four-paragraph plan that answers every part of the question.

Why this matters

Examiners mark against public band descriptors. When you know what each band asks for, you can practise the exact skill that moves your score.

Step by step

1. Read the question and underline the key words.
2. Plan for two minutes before you start.
3. Check your answer against the task in the last few minutes.
