Hello Liz
I was just wondering if it's okay to write "To conclude my essay" just to increase mt word count.

Hello mam, thanks for your lesson. I have seen your writing task 2 tutorials
I want to clarify whether these are meant for IELTS academic or general test?

[tareque]

Can I use "To recapitulate"?

[felipegomezorozco]

I love your accent Liz, good job with these videos!
Thanks,

[amanjotkaur]

Yeah...we can use various linkers for conclusion such as to recapitulate, to conclude, all in all, to sum up, to summarize above...that's all....but listen guys don't use in a nutshell coz now nobody use this linker in

[onyebuchiemmanuel]

Do the examiners actually count the words individually or they do an estimate by multiplying the number of words on the first line by the total number of lines?
