1. IELTS Task 1 : "Introduction sentence 1 part 1"

Do you ever get that feeling you just don’t know how to start a task one? Don’t worry, we’re here to help you. A good IELTS task one intro only needs 2 sentences. That’s right, just two. Let’s call them S1 and S2. The good news is, each of them has a structure, and a purpose. Let’s dive in a little deeper.

Your Task 1 intro S1 has only one purpose, to restate the title of the chart you are looking at. We can use paraphrasing, new grammar, or additions to achieve this. Let’s say you have a task one table and the title is “Amount of sleep for secondary school students”. We can use this title to write our S1. Always start with the words “The table/line chart/map/process diagram shows ...” and then add the information from the title. Here’s an example of a nice S1.

“The table shows the lengths of time that different aged high school students spend sleeping.”

This is a nice little 15 word task 1 S1. If we analyse it, we can see that the S1 used some synonyms. "Amount" become "length of time", and "secondary school students" became "high school students". Some of the grammar was also changed. "Sleep" became "spend sleeping". Finally, some new but important language was added to the S1. Just before "high school students", the new language "different aged" was added.

Doing these three things in the first sentence of your task 1 will help you get a really high score.

Keep studying hard!
