Therefore, IELTS which is known as International English Language Testing System is being used widely for academic purposes and the general paper is catered for migration and work. However, it is apparent that students these days have low literacy in writing and do not follow a proper framework. Thus, this research is to find the impacts of the use of writing framework among IELTS learners and determine the significant factors affecting IELTS learners’ writing performance. With this a non-probability method with a mix mode of 30 participant from a single class are the sample research.
