IELTS Task 1 Checker: Academic Reports & GT Letters

Whether you describe a chart or write a formal letter, your AI tutor evaluates Task Achievement, organization, vocabulary, and grammar — and flags the high-cost mistakes (weak overview or wrong tone) that keep Task 1 mid-band. First evaluations are free.

Academic Task 1

Charts, graphs, tables, processes, and maps, with overview feedback.

GT letters

Trend language

Reduce repetition of “increase/decrease” with precise alternatives.

Tone control

Avoid informal openings in formal complaints and requests.

IELTS Writing band score calculator

Estimate your Writing band from Task 1 and Task 2 scores (Task 2 counts double). Optionally average four criterion scores for one task. This is a practice formula tool — not an official IELTS calculator.

Task 1 + Task 2 (weighted)

Formula: (Task 1 + 2 × Task 2) ÷ 3, rounded to the nearest 0.5

Estimated Writing band

7.0

One task: four criteria average

Average of four criteria, rounded to the nearest 0.5. Raise the lowest criterion first.

Estimated task band

7.0

Lowest criterion: 6.5 — that is usually your practice priority.

A formula is not a criterion score. Paste an essay to see if this band matches · Speaking band calculator · how IELTS writing is scored.

Academic Task 1: what the checker looks for

Strong reports need a clear overview, selective data, and accurate comparisons — not a list of every number. Your tutor flags missing overviews, poor grouping, and repetitive trend vocabulary so Task Achievement can rise without rewriting the whole chart dump.

  • Clear overview of main trends or differences
  • Logical grouping instead of point-by-point listing
  • Accurate comparisons with controlled data language
  • No speculation about reasons the chart does not show

General Training Task 1: letters

Letters are scored on purpose, bullet coverage, and tone. A friendly email style in a formal complaint often caps Task Achievement and Lexical Resource. The checker helps you keep openings, body bullets, and sign-offs consistent.

Task 1 still affects your Writing band

Task 2 is weighted more heavily, but a weak Task 1 still pulls the Writing average down. Keep Task 1 “good enough and automatic” with weekly short practice, then invest your best energy in Task 2 depth.
