Enhancing Academic Writing Skills of IELTS Candidates in EFL Contexts

This book presents a quasi-experimental study conducted on EFL IELTS candidates, focusing on improving performance in Academic Writing Tasks 1 and 2. The author introduces a new model of writing instruction that significantly reduces teaching time while effectively raising candidates' IELTS writing band scores by at least one full band—a notable achievement. The book offers an analytical and innovative approach to teaching writing, integrating Schmitt's noticing protocols, reformulation, and rubric-based written feedback to enhance learners' writing proficiency.
