Scroll down for lessons which provide all the information you need to do well in Writing Task 2. They are ideal for self-study, or for teachers to use in class.
It is recommend that you spend 40 minutes on this task, and it counts for two-thirds of your writing score. You should write over 250 words.
There are five questions types: opinion, problems and solutions, discussion, advantages/disadvantages, and direct. I provide writing frames for each question type (below).

I have also provided a short course on writing skills, and a list of practice questions.
