Practice Makes Perfect

No matter how confident you are in your speaking and writing skills in English

, you need to give yourself practice in taking the crucial exams of IELTS and TOEFL. Practice not only makes you familiar with the questions and the various skill-specific sections but also helps you plan, so that on. Day the process of test taking is smooth and thus you are prepared to put your best foot forward.

Take the essay writing section, for instance. Follow a method so that the writing is easier. Have a way of organizing ideas into paragraphs and think about how you would present them and in what order. When a plan is ready, it becomes easier to know precisely what you are going to write and when. Go through a few sample test papers and attempt them.

To start with jot down ideas you would like to include in the essay and think of how you would string them together, that is, what ideas would you begin with and when you will introduce each of the rest. Once you have a bunch of ideas, group them to form a paragraph. See your essay as a collection of ideas rather than a huge block of text that needs to be produced. Once you write about 100 to 200 words on each idea, what you have at hand is an essay.

If you have problem making a beginning, that is if you are dwelling too long on how to get the first paragraph right, don't stay there too long; instead move on to the point you would introduce after it. You can come back to the introduction later, even after you have written the entire essay. Stop after every point to review it. Through practice you will come to know your shortcomings in the area.

Follow certain guidelines when writing an essay. There should be an introduction, a body, and a conclusion.

The introduction states the question employing phraseology and syntax that is different. Include the thesis statement too in the introduction. The body of your essay will include your main ideas, detailed explanation, and examples to support those ideas. Ideally each new idea should be a new paragraph. Group related ideas into a single paragraph. In the conclusion summarize the main points. You may include your opinion.

One can use two basic types of layouts for essays 3773 and 35553.

The 3773 is a four-paragraph essay with 3 sentences for introduction, 7 for the paragraphs, and 3 again for the conclusion. The 35553 is a five-paragraph essay with 3 sentences for introduction, 5 for the paragraphs, and 3 again for the conclusion.

Try introducing an idea that is original, something that stands out in the examiners view and thus could get you some extra points. Check the grammar and don't use an excess of adjectives. Proper planning will help you acquire a good score.
