Work on your vocabulary and learn new words, to make sure you will be able to understand the topic or at least take a very good guess. You have to read as much as IELTS essay topics as possible. For getting new ideas, if you don't have your own ideas, then borrow from others by reading other people's essays which would help with new ideas. This is simple because sometimes the topics are repeated in future exams. Please make a practice of reading more and more in order to get new ideas as well as increase your vocabulary. read less

First and foremost, a little planning goes a long way in producing a high scoring IELTS essay. Don't spend the entire time writing the response.You need to read the essay question a few times and understand what it is asking you to do.It is very important that your essay is to the point and never digresses. Secondly, you have to find out what kind of essay you are required to write. The types of essays you can be asked to write range from argument, discussion, opinion as well as advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes it is two part question you get to answer. It means there are actually two questions and you need to cover them both in your writing.The length of your essay need not be more than 250 words. Before you sit the real test you have to see what 250 words looks like in your handwriting. As soon as you have understood what the questions wants you to talk about and identified the question type you need to plan your response. The most important part of your answer is the body paragraphs. You have to think of at least two relevant ideas to cover in your body. What comes before the body paragraphs is the introduction which should contain a paraphrase of the essay prompt and your plan.If the question asks for your opinion, it is better to state it in the opening paragraph.The sentence containing your opinion or take on the issue is called the thesis statement. Each body paragraph must begin with a topic statement. This tells the examiner what you have chosen to discuss in that paragraph. After the topic sentence comes supporting statements and example. You should always remember to back up your idea with evidence and example. It is wrong to pitch and idea and move on. The examiner will penalise you for that saying the idea is not well extended. In the concluding or closing paragraph you will do well to re-emphasise your main arguments and make a recommendation or a suggestion. Turning to generating ideas for your essay,you must remember that as a candidate you are not supposed to come up with ground breaking ideas in your work. You may use your own ideas drawing from your experience or rely on what you have read about the issue. However,there are several strategies to develop ideas for any question in a few minutes that you can learn from a qualified IELTS teacher. If anyone needs any further assistance with developing ideas quickly for writing an IELTS essay do not hesitate to contact me on this platform. read less
