An "IELTS-style" entry Well, thinking of future, or better, thinking that I'll face the IELTS test by 2018, today I would like to share with you and entry wrote following the IELTS model. The example task is available in the British Council website, and its theme is to write to a friend that has agreed to look after my house and pet while I'm on holyday. So, let's go see how can I face this task. "First at all, thanks for help me! I've been planned this trip for a long time, and without your help I couldn't move away. Well, if you need, you can contact me in the hotel's phone: 2222222. I'll be at 222 room. Beyound this, you can call me on my mobile, just don't forget to type the city code! About Tom, my cat, don't forget to fed it two times a day, at morning and at night. As you know, cats don't need to take a walk outside, so, don't be aware with this. Tom's food are in that yellow cans in the kitchen, under the sink. Altough Tom seems to prefer the chicken ones, it uses to enjoy the fish cans too. Another important household duties that I'd like to you have in mind are to turn-on the backyard lights around 9 PM and to press the alarm on when you leave to your home. Finally, if you want, you can take the newspaper every morning to impove your aknoledge :)! Thanks again and see you soon!"

Well done Joao - an excellent piece of writing indeed. Please view my corrections.

Remember, when an animal is a pet with a name, we do say "him" or "her", not "It". Also, try to be a little more careful with your spelling.

Good luck!!

Tom (not the cat).

"First at all, thanks for helping me! I've been planning this trip for a long time, and without your help I couldn't go away. Well, if you need, you can contact me in the hotel's phone: 2222222. I'll be in room 222. Beyond this, you can call me on my mobile, just don't forget to type the city code!
About Tom, my cat, don't forget to feed him two times a day, in the morning and at night. As you know, cats don't need to take a walk outside, so, don't be worried about this. Tom's food is in that yellow can in the kitchen, under the sink. Although Tom seems to prefer the chicken ones, he used to enjoy the fish cans too.
Other important household duties that I'd like you to have in mind are to turn on the backyard lights around 9 PM and to press the alarm on when you leave to your home. Finally, if you want, you can take the newspaper every morning to improve your knowledge :)!
Thanks again and see you soon!"
