MAIN TYPES OF IELTS TASK 2 ESSAYS
by Jacky Spear
There are 5 main types of IELTS Task 2 essays:
1) Opinion Essays
2) Discussion Essays
3) Problem Solution Essays
4) Advantages & Disadvantages Essays
5) Double Question Essays
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.
First, here’s the basic 4 part structure I recommend that you use for Task 2 essays:
1) Introduction
2) Main Body Paragraph 1
3) Main Body Paragraph 2
4) Conclusion
The sort of information you include in each of the 4 sections will vary depending on the question type and that’s what I’m now going to outline for you.
These easy to learn structures will enable you to quickly plan and write any IELTS Task 2 essay.
The structures below are not the only ones you could use but they are the ones I recommend because they’re simple and give proven results.

Do you agree or disagree?
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Here is an example of each:
