The document provides descriptors for the 9 IELTS writing band scores. It describes what is required at each band level in terms of task achievement, coherence/cohesion, lexical resource, and grammatical range. The highest bands (9-8) satisfy all task requirements and use cohesive devices skillfully with few minor errors. Lower bands (6-5) adequately address the task but with inconsistent cohesion, limited vocabulary, and occasional errors. The lowest bands (4-1) attempt the task with many irrelevant details, limited organization, vocabulary and grammatical errors. A band 0 fails to attempt the task.

GENERAL COMMENTS
Instructor
Doreen,
You've included a topic sentence that previews the
location, used appropriate narrative transitions to
organize the paragraph, and used logical organization
throughout the paragraph.
Please use more specific directional phrases and
descriptive language as indicated in the comments.
There are also minor language and punctuation errors.
Overall, this is good work.--AST
PAGE 1
*Hi!*
Hi!
I look forward to reading your essay.--AST
Comment 1 | Format
Use plain font instead of bold.
→description thesis/TS
Thesis that references all five senses and identifies the scene included.
Misplaced/Dangling Modifier | Grammar
The noun should be immediately followed or preceded by the phrase that modifies it to avoid
misunderstanding.

Awkward:
The expression or construction is cumbersome or difficult to read. Consider rewriting.
Tense Shift | Grammar
Tense Shift:
Verb tenses should be consistent throughout your writing in order to make it clear when an action
takes place. You will confuse your readers by switching from one tense to another within the same
sentence or paragraph. When discussing literature or a published source document of some kind,
readers expect you to use the present tense, even though the source you're writing about may have
been written many years ago. When writing an essay about historical events, however, readers
generally expect that you use the past tense.Tense Shift
descriptive transitions | Transitions
Use narrative transitions to relate the events to each other.
Example: First, we went to see the tigers. After thirty minutes with the big cats, we moved on to the
apes.
Use directional phrases to orient the reader spatially.
Example: We entered the zoo from the north gate. After going through the entrance, we made a hard
left to get our trolley tokens.
Additional Comment Use directional phrases to make the description more concrete.
Good description
Excellent use of concrete description here and throughout.

The marked errors occur throughout the essay. Only the first instance is marked, so be sure to find
and correct all instances of the error if this is a rough draft.

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
