IELTS General Writing Task 2 from British Council

Sample essay:

Education is, without question, one of the highly sought after rights we have. Since time immemorial, we have given it such value that questions whether it should start at home or at school became one of the most controversial. This essay will discuss the benefits of children learning at home and at school and some of my opinions regarding this matter.

In the earlier times and until now, many of us believe that learning starts at home and the children’s first teachers are always their parents. Being the sole authorities at home, parents can provide focused learning to their children. This kind of strict environment is something that cannot be attained when studying at school wherein attention of the teacher is divided to almost all students. Moreover, most children can learn different life values that they can bring to use until they grow up. Such values include trust, loyalty, and kindness to name a few.

Although learning at home provides a lot of rewards, studying at academic institutions also has its own advantages. One of which is that a child’s social behavior can be improved in more dramatic ways at school rather than in their own homes. Individuals can develop their sense of leadership and creativity in solving problems and issues either on their own or with a group. It is also fitting to mention that there are wider scopes of learning when at school. Students can learn new information and they can also discover their maximum potentials from the various curriculums offered by different academic institutions.

In my opinion, there should not be a question as to where a child develops his or her cognition and physique in most ways. It is quite necessary for children to learn in two kinds of environment and both parents and teachers have the responsibilities to provide proper information and training to children to help their development.

Cambridge 11 Test 3 Writing Task 1

Sample: The data from the line graph illustrates the carbon dioxide emissions of an average individual per metric tonnes in four European countries every decade from 1967-2007.A closer look at the data highlights the fact that among the 4 nations, the UK has the highest rate in carbon dioxide emissions per person in 40 years. In 1967, there was approximately 11 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide released by an average Englishman which was about ten times higher than the emissions made by an individual from Portugal. However, it can be seen that as time went by, the carbon dioxide emitted by Englishmen decreased gradually to over 8 metric tonnes in 2007. On the other hand, a different trend can be noted in the countries Italy and Portugal where the emissions slowly rose from an initial rate of approximately 4 and 1 metric ton to about 7 and 6 metric tonnes in 4 decades. In Sweden, emissions increased to its record highest in 1977 w
