Hello, Mohammed! IELTS Writing task 1 asks you to describe the given information, not to give your personal opinion. Usually, in conclusion you summarize some information and state your point of view on a given topic. So conclusion is not needed for task 1. But in task 1 you have an overview paragraph to summarize the information about your graph without giving your opinion.
So I came here to just say THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART I always had a band score 5.5 writing but I was watching your videos literally the night before the exam and got band score 7.5 thanks to your instructions. I know it’s not much band score difference but for someone that never actually bothered to practice that made me very happy and proud for myself. I got the overall band score I wanted thanks to you . Again thank you 😊❤️

I think in the overview section it is mention-worthy that, " while the percentage of recycled waste in France experienced a downward trend with some fluctuation". Thank you for your outstanding presentation and explanation.
I get instant confidence by videos. They’re so many people who dont know about this channel. Ohh man!! You have to start making more videos i have my test on the 23rd.
this is first time I watched your video. Otherwise I always use your blog. I love the difficulty level in the exercises and the brief information that you provide on each topic, its relevant and useful. Thank you so so much for keeping your content free unlike other sites which keep bothering us with subscriptions. It's very kind and generous of you. Thank you once again!
The line graph gives information about household recyling percentages in UK, France and Germany in ten-year period. Overall, it is clear that while UK and Germany have a upward trend, France experiences decrease trend throughout the time period. At the beginning, although France’s houselhold recyling rate was the highest among the other countries, it positioned the last country at the end of the period. In 2005, France had 50% recycling rate and until 2013 this ratio dropped steadily to 30%. In 2013, recyling rate of France rocketed about 10% and finished its rate about 40% end of the period. Conversely, in terms of household recycling rate, Germany started its rate slightly higher than 20% and rose gradually up to nearly 60% over the time. Moreover, UK’s household recyling rate also experience the same trend as Germany, starting with roughly 35% in the beginning. At the end of 2009, it only rose by 5%. In 2 years, UK’s household recyling rate showed us the sharpest increase among the other countries. By the end of 2015, UK’s recyling rate placed the first country as 60%. hey guys I wrote down this what are your thoughts about it ? Can this essay deserve 7 or above ?
I don't think it could hit band 7 for several reasons: - Your tense was wrong in the overview, you used the present tense. - You didn't use the articles (a, an, the) well (e.g: in A ten-year period, AN upward trend, A decreasING trend etc.) - body paragraphs didn't start with a phrase that indicates the data in the paragraph (this is actually a requirement in Cohesion & Coherence marks) - "It is clear that"
As i can say, your videos are obviously the greatest way to understand ielts writing. Thank you very much. Also i want to watch more videos from your channel 👍
So I came here to just say THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART I always had a band score 5.5 writing but I was watching your videos literally the night before the exam and got band
