Bạn biết không, rất nhiều sĩ tử IELTS “đánh rơi” điểm chỉ vì lỗi nhỏ nhặt như là viết sai chính tả các cụm từ thông dụng, hoặc lúc gần hết giờ thì vì quá căng thẳng mà không nhớ được các từ khóa để viết bài.
Chính vì vậy, nếu muốn “giữ gìn” số điểm quý giá của mình, hãy ghi nhớ và thường xuyên luyện tập sử dụng các cụm từ, từ khóa thường gặp trong IELTS Writing nhé. Việc này chắc chắn sẽ giúp bạn viết bài dễ dàng và nhanh chóng hơn, đặc biệt trong lúc “nước sôi lửa bỏng” sắp hết giờ đấy!
Và một lời khuyên chân thành là, đừng cố nhớ tất cả những từ khóa một cách “nhồi nhét”, mà hãy sử dụng nhuần nhuyễn 3 đến 4 từ trong mỗi phần dưới đây, cá chắc là mỗi khi viết bài thì nó sẽ “tự động xuất hiện” trong đầu bạn đó!
