Task 2
Some people think that children should start school at a very early age, but others believe that children should NOT go to school until they are older.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.

You can send some more task 2 questions, I'll make a list and pick one randomly.

Got it, I'll post 2 essays this time 😁

Read EACH LINE carefully!

Day 2 - Task 2 (the task will be set at midnight and you will have 24 hours to submit your work)

Day 3 - Revision (model answers & video explanation)

p.S. You will ONLY receive FEEDBACK if you submit your work within 24-hr deadline. If you miss this deadline, you should still complete your work to proceed with the marathon, but you won’t get any feedback for late submissions.

3. You won’t be given a new task UNLESS you submit your task #discipline

The MARATHON starts on MAY 14 (we need those extra FOUR days to set up your portfolios on Google Drive)

I strongly recommend joining this marathon, it will definitely be helpful for everyone!

I'm not saying you'll be able to get 7.5-8.0 from writing immediately after completing the marathon, but you'll gain the core knowledge and find out what you should focus on.

This is what made me interested in learning German.

ChatGPT isn't available in Uzbekistan, so there a couple workarounds - you either find a foreign number, "borrow" it, or use the @aigpt4bot .

Back before the first uzbek niners came out, I remember emailing Chris Pell from IELTS Advantage on individual 1 on 1 sessions to get a band 9.0.

I wanted a niner to teach me how to get a 9.0, but unfortunately a girl from support department replied and told me that they do not offer personalized lessons and live sessions, then she went on advertising the VIP course.

When niners came out, I was at the same time genuinely happy and frustrated.

Happy because these guys broke the glass ceiling preventing uzbeks from getting 9.0.

Sad because that could be me.

I know I might've been too optimistic with that wish to outstrip the guys who've been in this field more than I've been in this world, but anyway, although very little, there still was a chance.

February 1st, this is what I texted my teacher, Sayyod aka)

Y'all know those English video comparing "non-natives" and "natives" or "basic English" and "advanced English" where there are two people teaching different words/expressions?

I want to unveil that thing coz you see most.of them just opening up thesaurus and picking different fancy and "high-level" uncommon words and making a video about 'em.

Chris Pell from IELTS Advantage said this, a niner Bekzod aka said this, my own teacher said this and I'm saying it now - complicated doesn't mean complex. Everything needs to be as easy to understand as possible, remember the KISS principle.

The most accurate thing I've ever seen in my life.
