Writing About a Process


Today I would like us to take a closer look at one part of the IELTS Task 1 writing that often poses a great deal of difficulty for students - writing about a process.

When you write about a process, you need to pay attention to the structure of your essay, and they type of language you use in your essay.

First, I want you to WATCH THIS VIDEO, which explains, in detail, exactly how you should write an essay about a process.
