Thanks,

Hi David,

Thanks for your prompt response!
One more thing I would like to know regarding the speaking test.
Could you please tell us, if the audio for the speaking test is being played as soon as we are allowed to open the question booklet, or we will be given some time beforehand?

Thanks!

Nevermind.. Anyways your response is excellent imo..

Cheers!

Hi David, Does it mean that the actual band score depends on the difficulty level of the test? I mean is it possible that 26/40 in one listening test will fetch 6, and some other day (with a more difficult question set) it would fetch a 6.5? If yes, is it also applicable for reading? I am asking thi...

Hi Terry,

I guess you missed the "article" in both the sentences.

..and as [a] result enjoy a higher degree..

..ever since the initiation of [the] women’s rights" (already pointed out by Matthews sir)


Thanks!

I guess, it's perfectly allowed.
Although, I am new to IELTS. Somebody having experience of writing IELTS, please correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Matthews sir,

I hope that my next post would receive only the last line of your comment..
By the way, is "computer literate" not a correct phrase or I used it in a wrong way?

Thanks again for your kind guidance!

You have just read about a computer course that really interests you, but it is only for people who ha...

Hi Gelever, I completely agree to what Matthews sir said. His comments are undoubtedly very effective for IELTS preparation. One point which I would like to add for listening test is: "don't ever waste the 30 sec time which you get in between the sections for revision". Invest that time in...

Thanks sir for your time. All your comments are duly noted..
Will come of with few other types of letter in the next few days..

Thaks Matthews sir for your evaluation and the words of encouragement. :) As far as the comments are concerned, all are duly noted and will try to include them in my future writings.

Hi, Thanks for your valuable comments. Will keep those in mind for my future writings. One critical mistake which I made in this particular writing is, writing "Math" in place of "math", "Engineering" in place of "engineering". I have a impression that these w...

Hi Matthews Sir, I couldn't agree more! I too am a firm believer of your theory of teaching. Before stepping any further, we should always correct the mistakes made by us. And trust me, I have not written any new piece since you evaluated my work(the one for which I requested your evaluation was an ...

Hi Matthew,

Essay In today’s era, struggle for existence is the key to one’s success. Apparently this has made the life of every individual a highly st...

In my opinion the idea which you possess is difficult to express. As per Ryan's suggestion it always better to hold one side of the argument, and I agree cent percent with this idea. Although if I was to write a thesis stating your opinion it would be something like- Art is gaining a high popularity...

My writing on this topic: Please post your opinion and suggestions for improvement. Art is highly promoted in today’s world. This is very apparent by the amount of money spent every year by the government on the uplifting of art. It is strongly believed that the government should continue to spend t...
