Body Part 1: Naomi: Today we’re going to talk about what the IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 is, and how to prepare for it. Eliot: Task 1 will ask you to write a brief report, usually about two visuals. You’ll have twenty minutes to analyze what you see and write 150 words about it. Naomi: That’s not much time -- what strategies can we use to craft an interesting, well-organized response? Eliot: You’re right, it’s not much time...as with the rest of the IELTS, reading instructions closely is critical. Task 1 will ask you to consider two figures, or sometimes maps or flowcharts. What are they explaining? How can you summarize the information presented? Can meaningful comparisons be made? You should be careful to focus on material you think is relevant, not your own opinions on what the graphs or visuals say. Naomi: So it sounds like there are really two parts: interpreting the figure and writing the response. Eliot: I like to think about it that way, too. With only twenty minutes, it helps to think about how you’ll approach it most effectively. Naomi: Since this test is meant to measure your English skills, you won’t be asked to do any difficult math to understand the charts, right? You should just focus on accurately reporting the information in the figures and explaining it fluently. Eliot: Exactly. The first thing to do when gathering your information is read the titles and headings of the graphs. Naomi: Right, titles and headings often act as summaries of the data in the figures, so they’ll help you figure out what’s important. Eliot: Next, you should take a look at the units and categories in the visual. Understand what is being measured and how that measurement is expressed by the visual. Naomi: So it’d be a good idea to ask questions like, “Is the visual dealing with changes over time? Is that in days, months, or years?” Eliot: Yes. The visuals can also show trends, patterns, or sequences. You can make sense of what these have in common by measuring them in similar ways. Naomi: So once you know what you’re looking at, you can start thinking about what the information means? Eliot: Exactly. Think about what kind of story the data tells or what argument it makes. Expressing that story or argument in your answer will show you are able to explain complex ideas in English. Naomi: So you should try to show that you can decide what in the figure is important and what isn’t? Eliot: Definitely. Try to explain what was most interesting about the graph to you, like you would explain it in a presentation in class or at work.   Before we find out some other IELTS Writing Task 1 tips, let’s pause for a word from Magoosh. Midroll:Kevin: Do you want a great IELTS score?Well gues what, Magoosh can help!Here’s what...

Listening is about curiosity and patience - about asking the right questions in the right way. Improvisational comedians and con men are much better at it than most of us. And the cleverest people can be the worst at it. Listening has the potential to transform our relationships and our working lives, improve our self-knowledge, and increase our creativity and happiness. While it may take some effort, it's a skill that can be learnt and perfected.

What we crave is to understand and be understood, You're Not Listening shows us how.
