    IELTS Writing -
    Key Words & Expressions
    By learning to use common phrases and set expressions, you can add variety and interest
    to your writing. You will also be able to write more quickly and effectively during exams, when
    time is limited.
    Of course, you won't need to use all of the expressions on the IELTS. Ideally, you should
    be comfortable using at least three or four expressions from each group below, so they come
    to mind easily during the IELTS. It is also helpful to have someone call them out so you can test
    your spelling. Unfortunately, students sometimes make spelling errors even in these
    commonly occurring expressions. Practice sufficiently so you don't lose points unnecessarily
    on something that's within your control.
