As we all know, IELTS results are given on a nine-band scale and scoring 6 means there are inaccuracies, misunderstandings and inappropriacies. Writing section is marked on four criteria, i.e., Task achievements, Lexical resource, Coherence and cohesion, and Grammatical range and accuracy. So, here are a few simple tips for you to follow. 1. Understand the question asked by the interviewer. It's not going to help you if you don't answer accordingly. Keep to the topic, avoid writing anything about unrelated subjects. 2. Make sure your spelling is correct because you'll lose marks for mistakes. 3. Get a list of vocabulary for each writing task. 4. You need to work on complex sentence structures to get a good score. 5. Linking words are very important. It would be best if you showed the examiner the range of linking words to connect each of your sentences. 6. Use paragraph clearly. 7. Avoid copying whole sentences from the questions. 8. Start your preparation early and make sure you keep track of your progress. 9. Always listen to news and documentaries on various topics in English, also read books. 10. If possible, seek professional guidance and ask for feedback to improve the weak areas. 11. Excercise with full-length tests under realistic situations for several weeks before the test date.
