Top Ten Tips
Choose one task only. You will have 2 options. Think about which one is the most suitable.
Spend 5 minutes writing a plan: annotate the bullet points in English, write down model verb and checklist.
You must cover all 4 bullet points but they don't have to be of equal length.
If you don't know what one of the bullet points means, it's probably best to avoid that task.
Use and adapt your speaking answers to help answer the task.
Make sure that every sentence has a clear, correct verb
You must refer to three time frames: past, present and future.
You should give at least two justified opinions.
Include extra details e.g. when/how often, who with, where
Use the acronym PORPORFF to remind you of what to include:
Present / Opinion / Reason / Past / Opinion 2 / Reason 2 / Future / Fancy stuff

Model Text
Selon moi, je mange équilibré normalement. Par exemple, je mange beaucoup de fruits et de légumes tous les jours et je ne bois pas de boissons sucrées parce que c'est mauvais pour les dents.
Les aspects stressants de ma vie ? J'ai trop de devoirs et il y a beaucoup d'examens cette année. Je n'aime pas les devoirs parce que c'est inutile.
Hier soir pour déstresser, j'ai fait de la natation au centre sportif. C'était relaxant! Ce que j'adore, c'est la natation parce que c'est bonne pour la santé.
À l'avenir je vais faire plus de sport pour garder la forme. Ce sera génial !
