IELTS / TOEFL Essay: Body Paragraph Development

The IELTS and TOEFL writing score depends on more than just strong and varied vocabulary and good grammar; you also need to think about how you develop and present your ideas.

Task Response and Cohesion & Coherence are equally important criteria when it comes to your test score. In this video, we look at a very important, but often overlooked aspect of the essay: body paragraph development.

Have you answered the task question(s)? Did you make a convincing argument, with elaboration and support? Do your ideas connect? Do you use cohesive devices? All of these questions, and more, need to be on your mind as you write the essay.

See the essential components of a basic body paragraph and examples to illustrate their necessity.
