IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Request Help — Education
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
You missed two weeks of your evening course because of illness and have fallen behind. Write a letter to a classmate. In your letter: • explain why you were absent • ask to borrow their notes from the missed classes • offer to share your notes from earlier in the course
Examiner focus: A fair exchange, not a one-way favour: notes for notes.
