This is an excellent video, but in my view, it should be titled "Advanced Strategies for Cohesion."

Sir, I'm Augustine and im from India. I'm now preparing for my ielts exam. I have some serious doubt on the criteria given in grammatical range and accuracy column provided by IDP on task 1 & 2 writing. As Band 9 shows "uses a wide range of structures with full flexibility and accuracy". Does it mean simple, compound,complex and compound-complex structures or are there any other forms? I have notes of sentences using if clauses, sentences starting with participles. What does "wide range" actually means? And How is it possible for wide range in task 1 as it is all writting about graphs or tables? Waiting for your valuable response.
Btw Sir,Your Email isn't working.

After reading your comment, I don't think you have anything to worry about. My advice is to focus on ensuring your sentences flow together in a coherent manner. Good luck! Don't overthink this. Write clear, correct English as you did above.
