Overall band estimate
Free sampleBand and feedback on all four criteria
Free sample- Task Response6.5
Strength: Your position is clear from the introduction and kept to the end. Fix: The commuting idea is asserted, not developed — add a specific consequence.
- Coherence & Cohesion7.0
Strength: Each paragraph has one central idea and a logical order. Fix: Three paragraphs open with “Furthermore” — vary how ideas are linked.
- Lexical Resource6.0
Strength: Accurate topic vocabulary such as “commute” and “flexibility”. Fix: “Important” appears five times, and “do a decision” is a collocation error.
- Grammatical Range & Accuracy6.5
Strength: A useful mix of simple and complex sentences. Fix: Article and plural slips (“the number of remote worker”) recur in longer sentences.

Examiner summary
ProA well-organised response with a clear position. Ideas are relevant but thinly supported, and repeated vocabulary holds Lexical Resource at 6. Specific examples and more precise word choice would move this essay toward Band 7.
Your improvement plan, in priority order
Pro- Lexical Resource first: replace repeated “important” with precise alternatives and fix collocations.
- Task Response: give every main idea one concrete example and its consequence.
- Grammar: proofread articles and plurals in sentences longer than 20 words.
Every corrected sentence (3 in this essay)
ProIn the last decade, the number of remote worker increase.
Over the last decade, the number of remote workers has increased.
It is important for the companies to give flexibility.
Companies should offer flexible working arrangements.
Band 8 rewrite of your weakest paragraph
ProYour second body paragraph — the weakest for Task Response.
Your paragraph
Working from home is good because people do not need to commute. This is important for the workers and it is important for the environment too.
Band 8 version
Remote work also removes the daily commute. An employee who no longer spends two hours in traffic gains time for rest or study, and fewer cars on the road means lower emissions in congested cities.

How the scoring works
Marked on the four official criteria
Task Response (or Task Achievement), Coherence & Cohesion, Lexical Resource and Grammar each get their own band from the public band descriptors. The overall band is calculated from those four.
Built to avoid over-marking
AI models tend to score IELTS essays too high. Our examiner applies strict Band 6/7 checks and worked anchor essays, and awards the lower band when an essay sits between two.
An estimate, not an official score
Use it as a study guide. Only a certified examiner in a real test can give an official IELTS band.
