Here is a quick post of a link to useful site for describing graphs for academic task 1. In a way it is quite limited as it only gives you the trend-based language for time graphs, but the way it does this is excellent as it shows you how to use the vocabulary. Here are some reasons why I recommend this site to you:
- clever visuals to show you exactly what the word/phrase means
- examples of how how to use the language in a sentence
- notes on how to use the vocabulary
- links to related vocabulary

Hi!
Which tense is used while describing a chart or graph in TASK 1?
Good question. I shall write a post on this shortly. The key is to make sure you notice whether it is past/present/future – they are all possible.
Sir can you provide for us sample of this type.
Sure.
I am in the process of starting to work on the site again and I will be posting as much as I have time to. I will prioritise a graph for you.
can I post my writing and can you correct it for me ?
