Hi JedLester,

Thank you for your kind words. To answer your question, no you do not need to indent your paragraphs in IELTS Writing. If you choose not to indent, skip a line between paragraphs to ensure the examiner knows where one ends and another begins.

Good luck!

Hello Ryan, it has been over a year since I have asked this question and I totally forgot to check back for replies. Anyway, the most recent Ielts exam I took was after sending you this inquiry. You're lectures did really help me a lot especially on the Writing task. I have finally bagged that elusive 7 score in writing. My overall Ielts score were L8 RWS 7. I was frustrated on my exam performance that time and thought I need to retake it but I was really head over heels when I've checked the result online. Currently, I have a pending application for my nursing registration in the UK. But for my visa application, the UK law has changed the regular ielts to their so called UKVI ielts. I think the difference is in the aspect of payment. From an average 120 GBP, it went to a whopping 200 to 230 GBP. Great isnt it? DO you have any idea if there is a difference in the content? Anyway, i will be taking the exam in fortnight and I am checking your blogs and videos again to refresh my head. keep it up sir ryan

forgot to share some of the topics that i have encountered in the October 2014 exam.

writing task 1 = it is a diagram, a linear one, that shows the process of making a smoked fish
writing task 2= its similar to my speaking topic
speaking = Do you think that parents who leave their children to work abroad is making the right decision?

the rest, i cant really remember anymore. but hope it can help ^^
