2. Write with Structured Practice Methods
- 📝 Daily Warm-Up Writing: Start with short (50–80 word) responses on everyday scenarios; gradually increase to IB task lengths (250–400 words).

- Use vocabulary flashcards linked to IB themes—reinforce with usage in mini writing prompts.

5. Simulate Timed Writing Conditions
