IELTS General Traning – Writing Tasks

IELTS General Training Writing is one of the two writing modules in the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). It is specifically designed for individuals who are planning to migrate to an English-speaking country, undertake work-related training, or pursue secondary education in an English-speaking environment. The General Training Writing module assesses your ability to write in a practical, everyday context and consists of two tasks: Task 1 and Task 2.

More on Tasks...

Task 1: In this task, you will be presented with a situation and asked to write a letter. The situation could be formal, semi-formal, or informal, and the letter could be personal, semi-formal, or formal in tone. The types of letters you may be required to write include:
– Requesting or giving information
– Making an inquiry or complaint
– Applying for a job or explaining a situation
– Inviting someone or expressing gratitude
 
Task 2: This task requires you to write an essay in response to a given prompt or statement. You will be asked to present an argument, provide a solution to a problem, or express an opinion on a particular topic. Your essay should be coherent, well-structured, and supported by relevant examples or evidence. The topics in Task 2 are generally more general and accessible to a wider audience compared to the Academic Writing module.

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.

Scoring for the IELTS General Training Writing module follows the same criteria as the Academic Writing module: Task Achievement, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource (Vocabulary), and Grammatical Range and Accuracy. Each criterion is equally weighted, and you will receive a band score from 0 to 9 for each task, as well as an overall band score for the writing module.
 
To prepare for the IELTS General Training Writing module, it is important to practice writing letters and essays in different formats and tones. Familiarize yourself with the different question types, understand the structure and requirements of each task, and work on improving your vocabulary and grammar skills. Practice time management to ensure you can complete both tasks within the given time limits.
 

You can find sample questions, practice materials, and official scoring criteria on the official IELTS website or through reputable IELTS preparation books and websites. Additionally, consider seeking feedback from qualified instructors or participating in writing workshops to enhance your writing skills further.
