What linking words should you use and how should you use them?<\/p>\n

Find out today!<\/p>\n

In our daily study plan in 3 Keys IELTS<\/a> we give you all of the linking words you need for the exam.<\/p>\n

In the last episode we said that in IELTS Writing Task 2 if you get an opinion essay then you can answer it using both sides of an argument because using that style you will find it easier to come up with examples.<\/p>\n

Today we are going to talk about the kind of vocabulary that we have to use to get a 7 or higher on IELTS Writing Task 2.<\/p>\n

We have to use linking words!<\/p>\n

Every sentence should have a linking word.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here are the linking words that you can use for every body paragraph<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Topic: gentrification in urban areas (lower income families are having to move out of their neighborhood away from the urban areas because their rent is going up)
<\/em><\/p>\n

As for those<\/strong><\/span> who believe that gentrification is good, they feel this way because<\/strong><\/span> their neighborhood becomes safer. For instance,<\/strong><\/span> a study last year found that crime had decreased by 17% in Park Slope last year. In addition,<\/strong><\/span> they believe that real estate investors should be able to increase rent as they deem fit. A fantastic example of this is<\/strong><\/span>, the house next to me rented for $1200 per month last year and now it’s renting for $1600 per month.<\/p>\n

In contrast, other people hold the notion that <\/strong><\/span>gentrification is unfair. Firstly,<\/strong><\/span> this is because longtime residents can no longer afford to live there. For example,<\/strong><\/span> my friend at work had to leave her neighborhood after twenty five years. Moreover,<\/strong><\/span> this is pushing people out into areas that are farther away from home or school, creating more challenges for them to succeed. More specifically,<\/strong><\/span> my colleague used to commute one hour to work and now she has to commute for two hours.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Takeaway:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A key part of your Writing score on Task 2<\/a> is using high-level linking words. You will lower your score to a 6 if you use linking words that every other student is using. <\/p>\n

Make your essay stand out in the eyes of the Examiner<\/a> and become a 7 candidate by using these exact linking words to get a 7 or higher on your Writing Task 2 essay.<\/p>\n
