This picture shows that 2 people who are overwhelmed with emotion. In my opinion they may be a couple. On the left there is a man with white t shirt who is blissfully happy giving her a gift box. On the right there is a woman with grey blouse accepting a present with immensely grateful. Her eyes are being closed by the man. They can be a close knit family. Most questions fit one of these categories. However, questions can be written in many different ways, which can make it difficult to determine which type they are.
On this page, I want to give you an overview of all 5 IELTS Task 2 essay types, with samples questions to help you recognise some of the different wording often used. I’ve also included a basic structure for each that you can use to as a guide for essay planning, a vital step in the writing process.
I go into each type of question in more detail on its own page. Click the links above or at the bottom of this page to see these.
First, here’s the basic 4 part structure I recommend that you use for Task 2 essays:
