- Thank you for correcting my writing. But, as far as I know this part is called introduction not summary overview. What do you mean by saying 3-5 keyword sentences? I think is already compelete because I just paraphrased the title of the graph.

When writing an IELTS introduction, you are expected to provide an overview of the information that will be contained in the report. This is not a simple essay. This is supposed to be an accurate restatement of information provided to you. There is an expectation that the writer will first analyze the data in the illustration prior to presenting it to the reader. That said, the reader has some expectations as well.

Remember how in an ordinary essay you are supposed to restate the prompt, offer an overview of prompt related opinions, and then your point of view? That is known as the flow of discussion. In the IELTS essay, you are expected to deliver something similar to that. In this case, your introduction should include the title of the graph, an overview of the graph information (increase and decrease), and the final outcome of the chart / illustration. Those are the parts that comprise the introduction of an IELTS essay. Writing those bits of information always take at least 3 sentences, with a maximum of 5. Look at the other sample IELTS Writing Tasks in this forum, you will notice that all of them depict the same kind of introduction / summary overview.

Do you understand my explanation? Feel free to ask questions if you still have any.

oh I see, thank you so much for the explanation. Now I know between the introduction and overview must be combined into one paragraph. Sorry for the misunderstanding because I usually separate it and am taught by IELTS tutor to do so. I don't know if the pattern I use is only for practice in order to make us recognize which one of the introduction and overview easily.
