IELTS Writing Task 2: research and write 
If you're writing an IELTS essay at home, try doing some Internet research first. 
For example, I did a Google search for "benefits of CCTV" (for 
this question
), and I found lots of great 
ideas and vocabulary. 
Click here
to download the best article that I found. Underline the good 
vocabulary, then choose 3 benefits and try to write a "firstly, secondly, finally" paragraph. 
PS.
My next video lesson will be ready later today. This one will be free.

IELTS Writing Task 2: which part to answer 
The question below contains 2 ideas or statements, highlighted in blue and green. 
Wild animals have no place in the 21st century
, so 
protecting them is a waste of resources
. To 
what extent do you agree or disagree?
A student, Raymond, asked which part of this question we should answer. Should we agree or 
disagree with just the blue part, just the green part, or both parts? 
Here's another example: 
International travel is cheaper than ever before
, and 
more countries have opened their doors 
to tourists
. Do the advantages of this trend outweigh the disadvantages?
For this question, Raymond asks whether we need to discuss the pros and cons of travel being 
cheaper, or whether we should just focus on the green part. What do you think? 
Note: 
You can find my answer and explanation in 
this lesson
.
