Enhance your IELTS Grammar

In the IELTS exam, both Speaking and Writing tests have 25% marks for grammatical range and accuracy. The range of grammar includes different types of sentence structures in different tenses in both active and passive voice. Even in the Reading and Listening tests, some accuracy of grammar is needed as there are certain questions in which incomplete sentences or notes have to be completed. If you do not understand the sentence structure, you will make a mistake and write the wrong word. The main areas of grammar that you should be well versed with if you plan to take the IELTS exam are: Subject Verb Agreement: If you make this type of error, it can affect your grammar accuracy. 

Tenses: Many are not able to understand the wrong tense shift, which adversely affects their IELTS score. Active & Passive Voice: You use the Active Voice if you emphasize on the doer of the action and passive voice when you emphasize on the result or the recipient of the action. 

Complex Sentences: Both in IELTS Speaking & Writing, you need to show a range of sentence structures. Punctuation: Most of the students have run on sentences because of wrong placing of commas. 

The Definite Article: The most common mistake that the IELTS test takers make in grammar is that of the definite article ‘the’. Modal Verbs: Helping verbs such as can, could, shall, should, and would are Modal verbs. 

Comparatives: In IELTS Speaking, you have to talk about people, things or places, and no description can be complete without adjectives. These are the words through which you can demonstrate your wide range of vocabulary. The comparatives help you in showing your preference.
