How to Write a Good Introduction
The introduction paragraph of a formal IELTS report is probably one
of the easiest parts as long as you practice
because it involves simply
rephrasing the first line of the question statement.
Take a look at the following example:
Question
: The graph below shows the number of enquiries received
by the University Admissions Office over a six-month period in 2021.
Paraphrased Sample Introduction:
This line chart represents the
number of enquiries made to the University Admissions Office from
January to June 2021.
How To Write An Overview
The overview paragraph for any graph description should briefly
outline the main trends and features of the
graph without going into too
many specific details. Use these ideas to form two or three sentences. State
the information by simply using synonyms wherever possible.
Sample Overview:
It is clear from the graph that
the enquiries made
29
in person and by telephone increased during this time, while the number of
enquiries made by email decreased.
How To Write The Main Body Paragraphs
In the Main Body Paragraphs, you will
give details about the main
events mentioned in paragraph 2. When giving specific details, you have
to write exact numbers/percentages and include
as much information as
possible.
