1
00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:06,720
Now that you have completed the aisles, task one section of our course is now time to move into its

2
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,630
task, to which is a standard essay.

3
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:14,910
In this lecture I'm going to provide you the basic information of Ihls task too.

4
00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:16,350
So let's get started.

5
00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:22,230
First of all, it's very important for you to understand what we're going to cover in this section of

6
00:00:22,230 --> 00:00:23,130
our course.

7
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:28,050
We're going to start off with an introduction, which is what you're listening to right now.

8
00:00:28,350 --> 00:00:31,620
Afterwards, we're going to really get into a scoring analysis.

9
00:00:32,130 --> 00:00:36,420
This is a really, really important part of this course section.

10
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:45,900
Many students want to know, how can I move my score from a five to a 7.5 or really a five to a 6.5,

11
00:00:45,900 --> 00:00:48,450
a 7 to 8 and eight, two and nine.

12
00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:55,530
In the scoring analysis, I'm going to tell you exactly how to do that.

13
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,940
After the scoring analysis, we'll get into the question analysis.

14
00:01:00,510 --> 00:01:07,080
In this lecture, we're going to really explain to you how to understand a question properly.

15
00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:12,540
When you're answering the question, what are all of the elements that you need to address?

16
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:19,920
This is going to really help you with getting a really high task achievement task development score.

17
00:01:20,850 --> 00:01:27,690
And then we're going to get into outlining essay questions, thesis statements, writing a complete

18
00:01:27,690 --> 00:01:33,780
introduction, writing topic sentences, writing body paragraphs, conclusions.

19
00:01:33,780 --> 00:01:40,320
And then you're going to get some live timed essay examples where I'm going to be writing an essay in

20
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:43,710
real time so you can see how it's all put together.

21
00:01:46,070 --> 00:01:51,560
So for the elite exam, there are two question types that you have for a task.

22
00:01:51,590 --> 00:02:01,700
Number one, if you're doing the academic exam is going to be a chart or a report or possibly a map

23
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:02,990
or a process.

24
00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:09,650
If you're doing the general exam, you're going to have to write a letter and that could be a formal

25
00:02:09,650 --> 00:02:11,690
or informal type of letter.

26
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:18,440
Now, task number two is the standard essay, and that's what we're getting into here.

27
00:02:18,470 --> 00:02:26,840
The standard essay, this is where you have to prove your ability to write the standard essay that they

28
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,980
teach in almost every ESL school around the world.

29
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:38,900
You have to write in a way that's measured up to the standards that the examiners expect when giving

30
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:41,360
a student a score of seven plus.

31
00:02:43,580 --> 00:02:47,630
So what is a standard English based essay?

32
00:02:48,020 --> 00:02:50,120
Let's just start with the foundation.

33
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,090
What is a standard essay?

34
00:02:53,840 --> 00:03:00,080
It's a piece of writing that is used to convince someone of a position that you're going to take.

35
00:03:00,470 --> 00:03:07,490
You must use a certain level of reasoning and evidence to score very, very well in order for the reader

36
00:03:07,490 --> 00:03:08,750
to be convinced.

37
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:14,150
You have to follow a certain logical pattern.

38
00:03:14,450 --> 00:03:21,260
There's certain components that you must include when writing a standard English based essay.

39
00:03:21,530 --> 00:03:28,250
Now, of course, I'm going to tell you what those components are, and I'm going to give you examples

40
00:03:28,250 --> 00:03:30,110
of each of those components.

41
00:03:31,010 --> 00:03:35,330
The examiner wants you to write a 4 to 5 paragraph essay.

42
00:03:37,930 --> 00:03:45,580
So there are many, many types of questions on the eye exam, many, many types of questions, and they

43
00:03:45,580 --> 00:03:48,580
all revolve around the same theme of argumentation.

44
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,470
They're just different ways of phrasing it or stating it.

45
00:03:53,980 --> 00:03:56,890
But for every single question, you're giving your opinion.

46
00:03:59,240 --> 00:03:59,960
So.

47
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,250
Of course, you have the agree or disagree question.

48
00:04:03,370 --> 00:04:12,250
And sometimes this is phrased as just a direct agree or disagree, and then at other times it will be.

49
00:04:12,250 --> 00:04:14,560
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

50
00:04:15,250 --> 00:04:22,000
Then we have a discuss both sides question opinion questions, two questions embedded.

51
00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:28,840
That means that when you have the essay question, they'll have two separate questions within it.

52
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,130
They may ask you whether something is positive or negative as one question.

53
00:04:33,370 --> 00:04:40,920
And then in another question, they will they will next to that question or right after that question,

54
00:04:40,930 --> 00:04:45,790
they'll have a separate question that is asking something different.

55
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,660
Then you have a preference question where you have to choose one.

56
00:04:50,660 --> 00:04:51,830
Out of a list.

57
00:04:52,430 --> 00:04:56,300
Or you may have a pair choice where you have to choose between two.

58
00:04:56,900 --> 00:05:02,960
And also be aware that it's possible to have a question where you have to choose from three or four

59
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:03,770
items.

60
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,970
That was something that they used to do on the exam a long time ago.

61
00:05:08,420 --> 00:05:12,980
But be aware because anything they've done in the past, they can bring up again.

62
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:19,340
Then we have the advantage disadvantage question and that could be worded many different ways.

63
00:05:20,090 --> 00:05:21,320
It can just be discussed.

64
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:26,540
The advantages and disadvantages, it can be discussed the advantages and disadvantages and give your

65
00:05:26,540 --> 00:05:27,200
opinion.

66
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:31,700
Or it could be compare the advantages and disadvantages.

67
00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:38,330
Then we have the cost solution question or problem solution question.

68
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:45,710
So these are all of the different question types that you could possibly have to address on the exam.

69
00:05:47,030 --> 00:05:55,850
Now, the good thing for you is that I teach one method, one strategy to address all of the questions.

70
00:05:56,420 --> 00:06:03,800
There's no separate writing strategy or writing structure for a problem solution question.

71
00:06:03,890 --> 00:06:08,660
They all are going to use the same structure, the same strategy.

72
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,300
All right.

73
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:15,530
So there's something that I really want you to understand about essay writing.

74
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,720
And that's any essay.

75
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:24,140
Any standard essay is basically written like an inverted pyramid.

76
00:06:24,530 --> 00:06:32,960
And that's a very important concept to understand when you're trying to mentally imagine what an essay

77
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,520
should be written like.

78
00:06:35,740 --> 00:06:42,970
So when you look at an essay from the overall global perspective of an essay, just look at the shape

79
00:06:42,970 --> 00:06:49,570
of how it's written mentally, because on paper it looks like the same shape, but really it's not.

80
00:06:50,050 --> 00:06:53,200
The introduction is more general.

81
00:06:53,890 --> 00:06:58,450
So it's like the wide base of the pyramid.

82
00:06:58,810 --> 00:07:03,820
And then when you get to the body paragraphs, it narrows down a little bit more.

83
00:07:04,810 --> 00:07:07,150
It narrows down just a little bit more.

84
00:07:07,450 --> 00:07:13,420
And then when you finally get to the conclusion, it all comes down to a point.

85
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:22,570
When you look at the introduction and the body paragraphs is the exact same inverted pyramid shape.

86
00:07:23,380 --> 00:07:27,850
With an introduction, you start off with a general statement related to the topic.

87
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:33,430
Then you move down and you narrow it into the specific question that's being asked.

88
00:07:33,580 --> 00:07:36,820
And then you wrap things up with a thesis statement.

89
00:07:38,610 --> 00:07:45,600
With a body paragraph is the exact same inverted pyramid style of writing.

90
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:53,550
You start off with the topic sentence and then it focuses down into the details and then a more specific

91
00:07:53,550 --> 00:07:56,400
example or explanation of the detail.

92
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:03,150
And then in my wrap up with a concluding sentence for that paragraph and then for the overall essay,

93
00:08:03,150 --> 00:08:10,830
of course, you conclude with a a overall conclusion for the essay itself, but that's really what essay

94
00:08:10,830 --> 00:08:12,000
writing is.

95
00:08:12,300 --> 00:08:15,570
And so you have to think about that when you're looking at your introduction.

96
00:08:16,950 --> 00:08:21,120
Is your introduction being written like an inverted pyramid?

97
00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:25,800
Are your body paragraphs being written like an inverted pyramid?

98
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,920
That's what creates the type of writing.

99
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,690
The score is very well.

100
00:08:32,580 --> 00:08:37,950
So here's our 35 minute six step writing strategy.

101
00:08:38,310 --> 00:08:45,030
We have six easy steps to follow for you to be able to write the type of essay that's going to score

102
00:08:45,060 --> 00:08:45,930
very well.

103
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,250
Number one, you have 2 minutes to analyze the question.

104
00:08:50,340 --> 00:08:54,990
This is a critical step, a very important step.

105
00:08:55,380 --> 00:09:02,850
This makes sure that you're going to answer all the parts of the question and that you answer it accurately.

106
00:09:03,660 --> 00:09:10,140
Number two, outline the question after you understand what you have to write because you've analyzed

107
00:09:10,140 --> 00:09:11,010
the question.

108
00:09:11,130 --> 00:09:13,290
Now it's time to do an outline.

109
00:09:13,710 --> 00:09:17,940
And I need for you to be able to do your outline in less than 5 minutes.

110
00:09:19,610 --> 00:09:23,420
Then we're going to move to step number three, writing the introduction.

111
00:09:23,780 --> 00:09:26,390
The introduction should be written in 5 minutes.

112
00:09:26,630 --> 00:09:27,950
There are three parts to it.

113
00:09:27,950 --> 00:09:33,860
Introduction, the general idea paraphrasing the question and then your thesis statement.

114
00:09:34,250 --> 00:09:36,290
Then we have steps four and five.

115
00:09:36,290 --> 00:09:38,000
Which are your body paragraphs?

116
00:09:38,390 --> 00:09:39,730
Each body paragraph.

117
00:09:39,740 --> 00:09:43,640
You have 10 minutes to write each body paragraph.

118
00:09:44,090 --> 00:09:50,240
And then finally, we're going to wrap things up with the conclusion which involves your restating your

119
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:55,760
thesis statement and making any possible future recommendation for the reader.

120
00:09:56,450 --> 00:10:05,300
So these six steps encompass what I want you to do in terms of your writing process itself.

121
00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:11,600
Now you're going to hear me later on talk about in terms of the introduction and the body paragraphs,

122
00:10:11,810 --> 00:10:17,330
that it is possible for you to write your body paragraphs before you write the introduction.

123
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:25,040
Some people like to do it that way because really the body paragraphs are the or the heart of the score.

124
00:10:25,190 --> 00:10:31,610
That's where most of your points come from the body paragraphs themselves, also by writing the body

125
00:10:31,610 --> 00:10:32,960
paragraphs first.

126
00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:39,470
Some people feel like they'll have a better understanding of their essay and they can write the introduction

127
00:10:39,470 --> 00:10:40,310
faster.

128
00:10:40,940 --> 00:10:44,060
So we'll talk about that a little bit later on.

129
00:10:44,060 --> 00:10:51,260
But these are our six foundational steps to writing a 35 minute essay.

130
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,080
And I always want you writing in 35 minutes.

131
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:54,530
I know.

132
00:10:54,650 --> 00:10:57,380
I know that you basically have 40 minutes to do it.

133
00:10:57,890 --> 00:11:05,780
But if you finish in 35 minutes, that's going to give you 5 minutes to go ahead and really edit and

134
00:11:05,780 --> 00:11:07,190
improve your essay.

135
00:11:08,420 --> 00:11:15,440
What happens to a lot of students is they write right up to the 40 minute mark and then they have no

136
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,210
time for improving the essay.

137
00:11:17,630 --> 00:11:23,840
I want you to have five strong minutes to really improve and edit that essay.

138
00:11:24,500 --> 00:11:28,610
Take some of those simple sentences and form compound sentences.

139
00:11:29,510 --> 00:11:31,370
Include an adjective clause.

140
00:11:32,060 --> 00:11:34,640
Find synonyms for some of your vocabulary.

141
00:11:34,670 --> 00:11:36,560
You need time to do that.

142
00:11:36,980 --> 00:11:38,570
Correct mistakes.

143
00:11:39,170 --> 00:11:39,830
Right.

144
00:11:39,860 --> 00:11:41,840
You need that extra 5 minutes.

145
00:11:43,610 --> 00:11:44,030
All right.

146
00:11:44,030 --> 00:11:44,960
Thank you very much.

147
00:11:44,990 --> 00:11:47,930
This completes part number one of the introduction.

148
00:11:48,380 --> 00:11:52,130
Coming up next, we will complete the introduction with part number two.

149
00:11:52,430 --> 00:11:57,710
And then we're going to go ahead and move forward with how to outline essay questions.

150
00:11:57,740 --> 00:11:58,610
Thanks a lot.

151
00:11:58,610 --> 00:11:59,750
I'll talk to you soon.

152
00:12:44,610 --> 00:12:51,150
All right, now it's time to move into part number two of our introduction to aisles tasked to essay

153
00:12:51,150 --> 00:12:51,780
writing.

154
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:57,780
Let's go ahead and move forward and complete our lesson on the foundations of writing aisles.

155
00:12:57,810 --> 00:12:58,950
Task number two.

156
00:12:59,250 --> 00:13:00,510
Let's get started.

157
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,870
As you're aware, there are many types of sentences that you have to write within an essay.

158
00:13:09,290 --> 00:13:15,080
What you're looking at here are the three most important sentences of an essay.

159
00:13:15,260 --> 00:13:18,320
And these are ranked in order of importance.

160
00:13:18,350 --> 00:13:20,450
Number one is the thesis statement.

161
00:13:20,810 --> 00:13:25,460
The thesis statement is the most important sentence in an entire essay.

162
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,680
It controls the essay.

163
00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:31,340
The entire essay is built around the thesis statement.

164
00:13:31,580 --> 00:13:37,550
So if you have a well written thesis statement, you've really helped your score a lot.

165
00:13:37,970 --> 00:13:40,100
Next are the topic sentences.

166
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:45,770
The topic sentence is are almost like many thesis statements.

167
00:13:46,430 --> 00:13:52,040
A thesis statement controls the entire essay topic sentences, control paragraphs.

168
00:13:52,460 --> 00:14:01,040
So your topic sentence is must support the thesis statement and they control the idea that will be discussed

169
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,390
within a paragraph.

170
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:10,940
And finally, you have the detailed sentences they describe, explain and support the controlling idea

171
00:14:10,940 --> 00:14:12,380
of the topic sentence.

172
00:14:13,010 --> 00:14:13,660
Right.

173
00:14:13,700 --> 00:14:20,270
If the promise of the topic sentence is not fulfilled, the paragraph is not very well developed.

174
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:25,310
Again, you can see the inverted pyramid shape that I'm talking about.

175
00:14:25,790 --> 00:14:33,500
And this is why understanding the importance of these three sentences is really, really critical to

176
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:35,030
you scoring very well.

177
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:48,690
So when you're talking about a full task to say this is basically what it looks like on the left side.

178
00:14:48,780 --> 00:14:52,500
On the left side, you can see the actual question itself.

179
00:14:53,310 --> 00:14:53,890
Right.

180
00:14:53,910 --> 00:15:00,330
The international community has asked the public to act immediately on reduction of fossil fuel consumption.

181
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,670
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

182
00:15:03,810 --> 00:15:07,710
And then what you see here is an outline.

183
00:15:08,430 --> 00:15:13,170
And then after the outline, you can see the full essay here.

184
00:15:13,710 --> 00:15:22,650
Now, what I've done in this essay example is I've identified all the different sentence types that

185
00:15:22,650 --> 00:15:24,450
you have to write within an essay.

186
00:15:24,990 --> 00:15:31,080
So first we have the introduction where we start off with the general statement that captures the idea

187
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,810
or subject of the essay question.

188
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:42,840
Then we have the specific sentence or the specific paraphrasing of the actual question itself.

189
00:15:43,980 --> 00:15:47,520
And then at the bottom are the last sentence.

190
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:54,360
We have our thesis statement of the introduction, and the thesis statement gives the roadmap and direction

191
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,860
for the entire essay.

192
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:02,340
Then we move down into a body paragraph where we start off with the topic sentence, then our detail

193
00:16:02,340 --> 00:16:07,140
one, then explaining or expanding our detail, number one.

194
00:16:07,470 --> 00:16:12,390
Then we have our detail number two, which is the secondary detail.

195
00:16:12,810 --> 00:16:15,710
And then we are going to explain that detail.

196
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,760
I'm explaining this one, explaining detail.

197
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:22,260
Number two, we have detail number two, and then the explanation of detail number two.

198
00:16:23,130 --> 00:16:27,330
Then we move into the next body paragraph and repeat the same process.

199
00:16:27,420 --> 00:16:27,990
Topic.

200
00:16:27,990 --> 00:16:28,800
Sentence.

201
00:16:29,220 --> 00:16:29,790
Detail.

202
00:16:29,790 --> 00:16:31,260
One explain.

203
00:16:31,260 --> 00:16:31,710
Detail.

204
00:16:31,710 --> 00:16:32,400
One.

205
00:16:32,430 --> 00:16:34,440
Detail to explain.

206
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,460
Detail to.

207
00:16:35,490 --> 00:16:38,730
And here I showed you how to do a concluding sentence.

208
00:16:39,060 --> 00:16:45,030
You can always end the paragraph with a concluding sentence or what's called a transition sentence,

209
00:16:45,180 --> 00:16:49,950
which helps to build the coherence and connection between your paragraphs.

210
00:16:50,340 --> 00:16:52,440
And then finally, we have a conclusion.

211
00:16:53,850 --> 00:16:57,900
And this entire essay is 291 words.

212
00:16:57,900 --> 00:17:02,180
It might be 295, but I believe it's 291 words.

213
00:17:02,220 --> 00:17:11,280
I think there were a couple of changes made, but overall, this is what a really well written, high

214
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:20,430
scoring band score nine task to essay will look like and we'll read in terms of how in terms of the

215
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:22,020
proper way it should be written.

216
00:17:22,740 --> 00:17:30,570
Now, in some of the later lectures, I'm going to go into much more detail about how to write the introduction

217
00:17:30,570 --> 00:17:32,220
and the body paragraphs.

218
00:17:32,220 --> 00:17:40,110
I'm going to go over an entire lecture on thesis statements, another entire lecture on topic sentences,

219
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,770
a lecture on doing an entire introduction.

220
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:51,240
So it's really important that you really watch these individualized lectures so you can learn how to

221
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,860
do all these different parts and sentences that make up a great essay.

222
00:17:58,610 --> 00:18:04,450
Here are some great tasks to tips for you that will help you really be successful as.

223
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:06,050
As you heard me say earlier.

224
00:18:06,230 --> 00:18:11,630
Some students like to start with task number two, and that could be a really good strategy.

225
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,230
Also, remember your audience.

226
00:18:15,620 --> 00:18:17,960
Remember who you're writing for.

227
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:24,290
So many students start writing an essay and they completely forget their audience.

228
00:18:25,370 --> 00:18:27,110
You're not writing for yourself.

229
00:18:27,110 --> 00:18:28,370
It's not about you.

230
00:18:29,390 --> 00:18:33,620
When you're writing an essay, you're writing for the examiner.

231
00:18:35,090 --> 00:18:39,770
Keep in mind who the examiner is and what they're doing.

232
00:18:40,430 --> 00:18:44,570
That examiner's job is to judge your English level.

233
00:18:45,020 --> 00:18:52,700
They're judging your English ability in regards to task development, coherence, lexical ability and

234
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:53,450
grammar.

235
00:18:54,380 --> 00:18:55,850
That's the audience.

236
00:18:56,150 --> 00:19:03,490
So when you're writing, you have to keep in mind, how am I going to impress this this person?

237
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:05,000
This is my audience.

238
00:19:05,510 --> 00:19:09,320
I have to write in a way that I impress them with my lexical ability.

239
00:19:10,850 --> 00:19:18,020
I have to write in a way where I'm going to really shine in regards to my grammar range and accuracy.

240
00:19:18,980 --> 00:19:22,400
So always keep your audience in mind.

241
00:19:22,940 --> 00:19:28,490
And then number three re edit your previous task to writing attempts.

242
00:19:29,270 --> 00:19:32,420
So many students just write an essay and move on to the next one.

243
00:19:32,420 --> 00:19:34,370
Write an essay and move on to the next one.

244
00:19:35,060 --> 00:19:36,160
Go back.

245
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:42,740
Use a great grammar application like Grammarly WW Grammarly.

246
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,800
Use a great application like that.

247
00:19:46,130 --> 00:19:47,210
The premium version.

248
00:19:47,210 --> 00:19:49,070
I use the premium version myself.

249
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:54,140
The premium version will act as a grammar coach for you.

250
00:19:54,560 --> 00:20:00,740
It will identify the mistakes, the grammar mistakes, and make suggestions for how to correct it.

251
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:06,080
And you're able to keep making corrections until it is written perfectly.

252
00:20:06,830 --> 00:20:13,730
You should use that as a tool to go back and make corrections, because what happens to most of you

253
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:18,110
is you just keep making the same mistakes over and over and over again.

254
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,510
Here are a few more tips and advice.

255
00:20:23,780 --> 00:20:26,810
Make sure you adhere to the structure outline.

256
00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:28,880
Number three, stay relevant.

257
00:20:29,300 --> 00:20:31,700
Stay within the box of the question.

258
00:20:31,970 --> 00:20:37,070
So many students go outside of the question and then normally happens because they didn't do an outline.

259
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,770
Simulate the writing environment.

260
00:20:40,550 --> 00:20:46,190
You know, the way that you're the way that you're writing at home should somewhat try to mimic the

261
00:20:46,190 --> 00:20:47,450
actual environment.

262
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,210
The writing room is not going to be quiet.

263
00:20:50,660 --> 00:20:52,610
There's going to be a lot of distraction.

264
00:20:53,060 --> 00:20:56,660
Having a lot of sensors, variety really helps the score.

265
00:20:56,990 --> 00:21:05,180
Don't cereal list cereal listing happens when you just jump from detail to detail the detail listing

266
00:21:05,180 --> 00:21:07,850
five or six details in one paragraph.

267
00:21:09,410 --> 00:21:12,680
Examiners love mistake free sentences.

268
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:23,450
One of the biggest hindrances to going beyond a six or going beyond a 6.5 is your inability to write

269
00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:25,070
Mistake Free Sentences.

270
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:37,130
Students that are scoring 77.588.5 are able to write mistake free sentences your vocabulary range.

271
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,120
You have to know how to improve your vocabulary range.

272
00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:44,420
It doesn't mean using complicated words.

273
00:21:44,810 --> 00:21:49,700
I see that being done all the time and those students are just destroying their score because they're

274
00:21:49,700 --> 00:21:55,760
using the words inappropriately out of context and they don't really understand how to improve their

275
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:00,320
range and then finally write in a formal style.

276
00:22:00,350 --> 00:22:00,920
All right.

277
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,160
Coming up, we're going to go over a scoring analysis.

278
00:22:04,370 --> 00:22:09,590
I'm going to teach you exactly how to move your score up the rubric scale.

279
00:22:09,740 --> 00:22:16,310
And then we're going to move into a question analysis, really making sure we understand how we're supposed

280
00:22:16,310 --> 00:22:18,080
to answer certain questions.

281
00:22:18,290 --> 00:22:20,240
Thank you so much for joining me.

282
00:22:20,390 --> 00:22:23,210
I hope this lecture was very, very helpful for you.

283
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,640
Take care and I'll talk to you again soon.
