A challenge (noun) and To challenge (verb) have different meanings The majority of candidates know that A challenge is a difficult task that tests somebody’s ability and skill: • Finding a cure for cancer is one of the biggest challenges (or difficulties) facing medical researchers However, not many candidates are aware that the meaning of To challenge is to refuse to accept smth: • The new study challenges (or contradicts) the basic knowledge about the virus • Children challenge (or do not accept) their parents' authority far more nowadays than they did in the past • The scientific discovery challenges (or disagrees) traditional beliefs While A challenge is related to some difficulty, To challenge is related to doubt and misbelief PS, to challenge can also mean to invite someone to enter a competition, but I'm sure you know it from YouTube, so I won't post examples about it now @ieltsboyko

My 12th 8.5 overall My 4th 8.0 in writing I could get nine this time, but in Listening I couldn't concentrate well when labelling a map. As for Speaking, I really don't know what went wrong this time but I'm not planning to apply for remark. PS, writing task 2 question was "TO WHAT EXTENT DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE?" I fully agreed, wrote two body paragraphs with just over 340 words in total. I was given a plan of a college to describe in task 1. I wrote two body paragraphs there too, describing the main features of the current layout in the first paragraph and the future projections in the second @ieltsboyko

"Synonyms" that are actually NOT synonyms: Overweight and obese are two different weight categories and, therefore, shouldn't be used interchangeably Overweight is defined as being too heavy for one's height. The term is used both as a noun (people with overweight), and as an adjective (people who are overweight) Obesity is a chronic disease marked by an abnormally, high, unhealthy amount of body fat. Obesity is a major risk factor for numerous other diseases Imagine, a child is 150 cm tall and weighs 65 kg. The child is overweight but NOT Obese. To be obese, the child has to weigh 80 or more kilograms (45 kg is a norm) So if an essay question is about overweight children, obesity is not the perfect synonym, and the essay can go out of topic, if this word is used for paraphrasing It's like paraphrasing warm with hot Warm is not Hot Hot is not Warm @ieltsboyko

If you know some teachers who give their students such lists of synonyms and tell them to use any word for paraphrasing without analysing its definition, please let them know that there are so many other interesting professions apart from teaching @ieltsboyko

The problem of paraphrasing: Many candidates have no idea of what correct paraphrasing is. They use synonyms without analysing their meaning. Look at a question above. Although it's acceptable to write females instead of women, one shouldn't use other words that are considered "synonyms" according to Google. You can't paraphrase women with: ❌ Ladies Reason - only women holding a high rank are ladies ❌ Girls Reason - age. Children and adolescents are girls. Not all women in general ❌ Femme Reason - trust me, you don't know this PS, I remember one of my students wrote PEOPLE WITH XX CHROMOSOMES just because his previous teacher told him not to repeat any word in essays and paraphrase every word at any cost 🤦‍♂ @ieltsboyko

These three errors are common in IELTS problem solution essays: 1. Confusing problem and causes questions 2. Not linking the problems and solutions 3. Not developing both sides of the argument equally 1. Causes - reasons; Problems - negative effects. Do not confuse them 2. It's important to choose solutions that are directly linked with causes/problems. If air is polluted by the incineration of rubbish (body paragraph 1 - cause), writing about electric cars (body paragraph 2 - solution) is certain to be wrong and illogical. My advice - for each cause/problem, write down a possible solution in the same paragraph. This will ensure that the ideas are linked (big plus for coherence/cohesion) 3. Students sometimes also focus on causes/problems too much but write only one sentence about solutions, and this leads to an unbalanced essay, which results in a low score for task achievement. If you write 2-3 sentences about a cause/problem, make sure you write 2-3 sentences about a solution as well @ieltsboyko

Students sometimes write essays where they state that some trend has only advantages. This is terribly wrong since this is not a POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE essay, where we need to choose one particular side. Not only must we support both advantages and disadvantages but we must give a clear position which side is stronger. The word OUTWEIGH differs from OUTNUMBER so writing many benefits and few drawbacks is not what the question asks. If one writes that advantages OUTWEIGH disadvantages, then the former have to be stronger than the latter Lastly, some students write strong advantages and disadvantages, which is also not recommended. If you write an essay about electric cars, and their benefit is that they do not pollute air, but their drawback is that they can explode, it is wrong to conclude that Advantages outweigh Disadvantages. Even if they are eco-friendly, explosion can kill people. For this reason, disadvantages should be much weaker. For example, electric cars tend to be expensive etc @ieltsboyko
