About this episode

The hottest IELTS writing topics can vary from time to time as current events and trends influence them. However, some recurring topics include climate change, technology, education, health, and social issues. It's essential to stay updated with global news and current affairs to be well-prepared for any potential IELTS writing topic.


In today's podcast, we look at the role of a traditional TV and how its value in a household has changed. Families continue to bond but in different ways. As a family, we no longer value the idyllic scene of watching television together. Portable devices such as tablets, laptops, and smartphones have set a new precedent.
