such
as cleaning, cooking and laundry and
also
arrange the room even I have knowledge about gardening meanwhile arranging stuff I can do gardening before going back to my house. As I mentioned earlier I am learning about elder care management and with domestic work experience I can easily manage
this
joy because at home I am the elder one to look after my two younger brothers and grandmother whenever my parents are out of the station that why I know how to manage and I really enjoy doing all household work which is somehow beneficial for my furthers studies and job profile.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
