There are many English schools in Scotland that have EAP courses, but there aren\u2019t many that have a summer school programme. Your course is more expensive than some of the other schools, but I thought it was worth paying extra because of the summer school.

When I placed this order at your store over two weeks ago, delivery was guaranteed within five working days, yet I only received it yesterday. Furthermore, on opening the boxes I discovered that several items were missing, even though they are listed on the invoice.\u00a0 I have only received two armchairs instead of four and none of the cushions for the two sofas.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As there was no reply when I phoned your office, I left an urgent message, but no-one has called me back. I am afraid that this level of service is simply not acceptable. Please arrange for immediate delivery of the aforementioned items and confirm the exact date by phone or email.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I ordered this luxury garden furniture set ready for a special birthday party that will take place in ten days\u2019 time.\u00a0 I must therefore insist that all these items are delivered by next Friday at the latest.

You should spend a maximum of 20 minutes on Task 1 and the rest on Task 2. Why? Because Task 1 is worth a third of the result, while IELTS General Writing Task 2 is two-thirds!<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s important to know how your work is evaluated.<\/strong> Examiners will look at the following points:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Task Achievement: Did you answer all parts of the question? Was the tone appropriate?<\/li>\n<li>Coherence and Cohesion: Is the information logical and clear?<\/li>\n<li>Lexical Resource: In other words, your vocabulary!<\/li>\n<li>Grammar Range and Accuracy: How many different tenses you use and how precisely you write.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Each element is worth 25% of your final score, so they\u2019re all equally important.<\/p>\n<p>For the IELTS General Writing Task 1, <strong>you\u2019ll need to write at least 150 words for a formal letter<\/strong>. The letter could be an apology, a complaint, or even an invitation. You may be writing to a school teacher, a company, a friend or a family member. <strong>You need to make sure you use the correct language and tone for the situation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Think about focusing on the IELTS Writing section structure as well to enhance your prep<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-53640-_lszet07r736s\"><\/a>What\u2019s the best way to improve your IELTS General Writing paper result?<\/h3>\n<p><a id=\"post-53640-_a7kdux98che7\"><\/a>The best way to improve your writing is using IELTS General Writing <strong>practice papers<\/strong> and working on the different style of questions.
