Are you preparing for the Cambridge English C1 Advanced exam? In that case, this video is for you. Here we look at the first part of the Writing Paper, in which you have to write an Essay.

In every Essay for the CAE you are given three possible items to discuss connected to a topic - of these, you must write about two, and then make a decision of some kind. To succeed in the exam it's important, first and foremost, that you complete the task, and in this video we consider what that means.

Then we look at an example Essay writing task, and discuss the structure you can use - how many paragraphs, what each should contain, and how you can make sure the Target Reader is fully informed.
