IELTS WRITING TASK 2: How to structure an argument

You can increase your chances of success on the IELTS by preparing and practising in advance. Today, we will look specifically at the IELTS General Writing Task 2, which involves presenting two sides of an argument and giving your opinion. The main goal is to ensure you don’t scatter your arguments and make vague points. In this lesson, I will teach you how to structure your arguments in a clear manner that you can follow on test day. It consists of writing an introduction, making points, expanding, comparing, building, and concluding. I will give you useful phrases to help you easily present your arguments. If you are nervous about the IELTS Writing Task, this lesson will provide the practice you need to succeed. By the end of the lesson, you will feel very confident that you CAN DO THIS!

Glad it was helpful. Hopefully I'll be able to follow this video up with more IELTS tips soon.

[@carloponzetti2206]

Great, more advanced lessons please. There are almost twice as many lessons in the 'intermediate' category, and many advanced lessons are in the 'intermediate' category as well. But actually it's harder to go from the intermediate to advanced then from beginner or even from zero to intermediate, so advanced lessons (just advanced lessons, not fit-multiple-categories-lessons) should be more then half.

[@engvidBenjamin]

Ok. Thanks for this feedback. Do stay subscribed and you will be getting more advanced lessons.

Sir, I have a question, is ' a growing minority ' singular or plural?
I tend to confuse myself between singular or plural.
