Hi Oanh, Having read your essay, I found that you are still quite weak in developing logical reasoning. Perhaps you are not familiar with the issue of illiteracy in general. Why don't you try to educate yourself with this matter first before attempting your answer? Besides, it is important to unders...

Hi Damien, Here are few of my comments on your task 1. I am not commenting on your language ability because I feel it is your stronger point. However, in my opinion there is some inaccuracy in your interpreting of data and some missing information. The pie chart and the table describe the causes and...

Hi Allen,

First, congrats on your writing score. At least you know you can crack 7 in writing, which is normally the toughest.

About your speaking score, it's really hard to say...it is possible to have ups and downs and no one can really tell.

I hope you will be luckier next time!

Hello,

I think it would be nice if you have done your research before asking all of these questions. No one could provide you a better answer than resourcing to appropriate authorites.

People have different views one whether the countryside or big cities are the best places for children to grow up in.

Your first sentence is more correct although it sounds a bit difficult to read to me. Because you are talking about what already happened in the past, simple past tense is appropriate. The other two sentences are not correct in this context. Please note: to take a shower ---not showers I would chang...

Norwegine Wood is my favorite. It's nice to know that you like this book too. But I must say it was quite depressing for me to read it, as most of the characters were going through the crisis of their lives, and few of them decided to cease their lives at such young age. It is the book I would read...

​Question: Should wealthy nations be required to share their wealth among poorer nations by providing such things as food and education? Or is it the responsibility of the government of poorer nations to look after their citizens themselves? “Give a man a fish and feed him for a day: teach a man to...

I have been wanting to improve my Mandarin, which is quite poor at the moment. So, I am willing to help with your Ielts writing, if you will teach me some Mandarin, preferably focusing on speaking. Let me know who is interested and we will discuss further on the schedule. Please note that although b...

Your services are excellent and that is why I always choose your hotel every time when I am in Beijing Allen, May I answer your question instead. You are right to use present tense if you still think the hotel provides good service, which does seem to be so at this stage. I suggest you change to &q...

Hi Andy, I don't think Durai mentioned that he tried to fix the air-con. Durai wrote: It was midnight, so I tried myself to fix it but failed in my attempt. I believe "suffer" is a verb :). Yes, it should be "suffering" - I made a mistake when I typed to fast. We suggest, if you ...

Nowadays, I am reading a wonderful book called "Rich dad, Poor dad" by Robert Kiyosaki! It highlights the different attitudes to money, work and life of two men (i.e. his titular "rich dad" and "poor dad"), and how they in turn influenced key decisions in Kiyosaki's li...

I've never heard of youku.com before. I will let you know if the page runs in Vietnam because I am going back next week

Hi Allen, I am glad you do make your own research and discretion and don't just take in any recommendation that others gave you. Regarding "in reply to": you are right, it's possible to say that. About the phrase "in your letter", it is not a grammatical mistake but just a sugges...

Hi Lilycup, First of all, there's no pass mark in Ielts. Second, it is not the end of the world, if you don't get the score you targeted for, you can always resit the exam. Of course you will lose a bit of money, and time. I know it can be frustrated too. But, always look on the bright side of life ...

I take it you are a fan of dark humour, Chi.

I am a fan of all kinds of humor

This guy David is funny, isn't he. But I can imagine he can be quite annoying as well.

But I still keep making mistakes. It's okay to make mistakes, just try not to make the same mistake over and over again. ;) Anyway, I won't seek reassessment because I don't think there will be any chance for me to get a 7, although I believe that I may be given a 6 if I request a reassessment. I t...

Hello Durai, I think we all agree that Ryan has contributed a great deal to this forum and I believe that he has done the best he can. I must say, and most of you might agree, that his contribution to the IELTS students is very generous of him. Even though Ryan is the moderator and founder of this f...

Hi Chi, Highly appreciate your advices. I will try my best to avoid commiting mistakes. I got 7 on speaking, which I am happy about. However, they gave me 5.5 on writing. This really confused me, because I feel I deserve better score. Anyway, I won't seek for reassessment because it won't make me 7...
