IELTS Writing advice: Don’t Show Off

To show off is to try to tell everyone how good you are at something. IELTS candidates try to show off by using very complicated vocabulary and advanced grammar and believe this will show the examiner how good they are and that you deserve a high score. The only problem with this is that many people use vocabulary and grammar they are unsure of and this leads to lots of mistakes.

If you try to use advanced vocabulary and grammar structures, but use them incorrectly, you will actually get a lower score. It is much better to use a simpler structure you are 100% sure is correct. I always tell my students to follow the 100% rule- if you are not 100% sure, don’t use it.
