On this page, you will find everything you need to practise IELTS Academic Writing Task 1 maps.

Start with the How to Describe a Map guide, where you will learn how to analyse maps, identify the most important changes, write a clear overview, and describe how a place develops over time.

You can then practise with IELTS-style map tasks and sample answers. These examples will help you learn how to describe changes in buildings, roads, facilities, land use, and other features accurately.

Use the guide and practice tasks together to improve your ability to identify key changes, make relevant comparisons, and organise your Task 1 response clearly and effectively.
