This forum (which is now CLOSED, sorry!) contains essays by hundreds of people preparing for the IELTS between 2012 and 2013. They helped each other to become better writers by reading each other's essays and commenting on them.

Please enjoy the hundreds of essays and thousands of comments still available here. A HUGE thanks to all the brave young writers who commented and to all the visitors. We hope we've made IELTS writing less scary.

Hi everyone!

 

I hope some you can contact Alia and practise speaking!

 

It's the scariest part of the test for some people….

 

But now with Skype/Google Talk and many other services, there's plenty of opportunity to practise!

Thanks everyone and I hope you get a chance to practice speaking!

Skype, Yahoo Messenger, Google Chat -  there are lots of tools that allow live video. If you prefer to think before speaking, there are also some online video discussion websites and forums: you respond to a topic or conversation and upload when you are ready. You could do this with Youtube by posting video responses: use a smartphone to record and upload.

Dear Enda,

good morning,

Please, I try to use the small" w" letter to paste a new essay as you had advised me before, but it doesn't work at all.

 I have tried several times.

Thank you

Hi Alia

  • Do you have a PC or  Mac?
  • Are you using Windows or a version of Linux?
  • What browser are you using?
  • Is it up to date?
  • Are popups blocked on your browser?
  • Are you typing in Word? Another program? 
  • Does a popup window appear when you click the "W" icon?
  • What about the "T" icon? You could try using that one as well.

I don't recommend typing directly into the forum – you could lose your work. It's better to type on your computer, save, and then copy-and-paste. Make sure in your word processor program  (Word, AbiWord, OpenOffice, etc) that you don't hit Enter at the end of a line. If you type in Notepad, you make have to turn off or turn on Word Wrap (Format, Word Wrap) to get the result you want.

Let us know…
