This is a summary of the task 1 classes we had with new IELTS LEVEL 1 groups:

In IELTS Writing Task 1, candidates are presented with a visual representation of information, such as a graph, chart, table, or diagram, and are required to write a report describing and analyzing the data.
Here are the main points to remember about Writing Task 1:


1. ๐Ÿ“Š Task Types :
Task 1 may involve interpreting and describing information presented in one or more graphs, charts, tables, or diagrams. Common types include line graphs, bar charts, pie charts, tables, process diagrams, and maps.

2. ๐Ÿ“‹Report Structure: Candidates are expected to organize their report into three main parts: an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs discussing key trends or features presented in the visual data.

๐Ÿ“ŒIntroduction: The introduction provides a brief overview of the visual data, including the type of graph or chart and the time frame or subject matter it covers.

๐Ÿ“ŒOverview: The overview presents a general summary of the main trends, patterns, or significant features depicted in the visual data. It should highlight the most important information without providing too much detail.

๐Ÿ“Detailed Analysis: Following the overview, candidates should provide a detailed analysis of the data, discussing specific trends, comparisons, and relationships depicted in the visual representation. This section may include specific data points, percentages, comparisons between categories, or changes over time.

3. ๐Ÿ“•Language and Vocabulary:
Candidates should use a range of appropriate vocabulary related to the specific visual representation and academic writing conventions. This includes describing trends, making comparisons, and explaining relationships between data points.

4. ๐Ÿ“—Grammar and Cohesion:
Clear and accurate grammar, as well as cohesive linking devices, are essential for conveying ideas logically and coherently in the report.

5. ๐ŸงฎWord Count: Task 1 reports should be at least 150 words long. While there is no strict upper word limit, candidates should aim for a concise and focused analysis within the recommended time frame (20 minutes).


6. ๐Ÿ“Practice and Preparation:

To perform well in Writing Task 1, candidates should
practice interpreting different types of visual data and writing reports within the allotted time. Familiarizing oneself with various task types and practicing under exam conditions can help improve both speed and accuracy.


๐Ÿ“ŒBy understanding these key points and practicing effectively, candidates can approach Writing Task 1 with confidence and effectively communicate the information presented in the visual data.
๐Ÿ“ Writing Tips for IELTS Task 1 Reports and Most common mistakes ๐Ÿ“Š

1. Subject Selection: Be precise in reporting changes. Instead of saying "hamburger and pizza declined sharply," opt for "the consumption of hamburger" or other suitable options like "the number," "the percentage," "the rate," or "the sales of."

2. Avoid Using 'Overview': Skip using the term "overview" or "lines" in the introduction. Keep the overview paragraph concise (2-3 sentences) and free from detailed information.

3. Subject-Verb Agreement: Ensure subject-verb agreement when describing changes. For instance, use "the consumption of hamburger increased" for proper agreement.

4. Introduction Structure: Start by introducing the graph type (e.g., line graph, bar chart, pie chart). Use phrases like "The line graph shows/illustrates" or "Gives/provides information about" to introduce the graph.

5. Sample Introductions: Offer examples of well-structured introduction sentences, such as:
- "The line graph shows information about the consumption of three fast food products eaten by Australian teenagers between 1975 and 2000."
- "The line graph compares three types of fast food products in terms of consumption among Australian teenagers for the period between 1975 and 2000."
- "The line graph gives information about how many times three fast food products were eaten by Australian teenagers between 1975 and 2000."
- "The line graph gives information about the number of times three fast food products eaten/consumed by Australian teenagers between 1975 and 2000."

These tips ensure clarity and accuracy in IELTS Task 1 Reports. Improve your writing skills with these easy-to-follow guidelines! ๐Ÿ“โœจ #IELTS #WritingTips #Task1

The presented bar chart compares three types of public transport used in the town of Somewhere during the period from 2012 to 2015.

Overall, the number of passengers who used the tram increased gradually over the period while the usage of the train experienced a downward trend. Another interesting point is that although the number of people using the bus saw several changes, it represented the same amount at the end of the period as at the beginning.

To start with, initially, in 2012, the tram was the least popular transport used by fewer than 20k people. However, in the next two years, the number of passengers using it increased gradually and exceeded 50k in 2014. Similarly, the growth was stable in the next year when it reached the peak at approximately 90k, and eventually, the tram became the most commonly used type of public transport among the three.

Meanwhile, as concerns the usage of buses and trains, they both had a much greater number of passengers in 2012: 60k and 80k, respectively. In the next two years, they both saw a sharp decline but then rose from 12k to 35k (buses) and from 40k to 65k (trains) between 2013 and 2014. However, at the end of the period, the two figures witnessed contrasting trends. While there was a considerable fall from 65k to 55k in the number of passengers using buses, the usage of the train grew to 60k. As a result, moving on to 2015, the least common form of public transport was the bus.

Sample answer for the question above:


The table compares underground railway systems of six cities of the world in terms of the opening years, route and the number of passengers.

Overall, what stands out from the table is that the oldest railway system is the one in London and it had the most extensive route. However, the greatest number of passengers among the 6 railway systems belonged to Tokyo's.


Turning to the details, the underground railway systems of London, Paris and Tokyo were not only the oldest but also had higher numbers of passengers and longer distance covered. To be more specific, London, opened first in 1863, had the longest route of 394 km and serves 775 passengers annually. Similarly,, as the second oldest metro system opened in 1900, Paris railway system stretches almost 200km and was used by 1191 passengers every year. Meanwhile, Tokyo was opened in 1927 and had a bit shorter route of 155 km but served almost 2000 passengers on a yearly basis representing the largest number among all the railway systems listed.


On the other hand, the other three cities' rail systems received much lower numbers of passengers and had shorter distance covered. Kyoto and LA railway systems, which were opened in the most recent time, had similar number of passengers, 45 and 50, correspondingly. Lastly, Washington DC had about 144 passengers and the route
extended 126 km.
