Feedback Is Useful Only If You Know What to Fix

Teach how to interpret criterion-wise feedback without chasing every issue.

Receiving an IELTS essay back covered in red ink can be overwhelming. To stay productive, you must understand how your score is built. Your examiner grades you on four independent criteria:

Task Response (Did you answer the prompt?)
Coherence & Cohesion (Are your ideas organized?)
Lexical Resource (Is your vocabulary accurate?)
Grammatical Range & Accuracy (Are your sentences varied and correct?)
