I'd like to suggest following the hints when you work on the picture description tasks.
- Always follow the plot suggested in the picture. Add details to develop the plot; for example, time, place, manner, and feelings. Try to give the account of your story in a logical way.
- Always use a variety of expressions, i.e. a group of words (noun phrases, verb phrases, prepositional phrases to express meaning. Follow the sentence patterns while you are writing sentences.
- Remember to use prepositional phrases to describe your setting.
- Always select right tenses in describing the events.
- Be simple and follow the cause-effect relationship to develop your plot.
- articles -->a/an/the/some/any/singular/plural
- subject-verb agreement-->e.g. I go /He goes
- tenses-->active / passive
- conjunction-->and (in addition, besides, furthermore, even, moreover)/but (although, however)/or (else, whereas) /when/since
- preposition-->in/on/at/through/past/along/by
- parts of speech-->noun/pronoun/adjective/adverb/verb
- spelling
- choice of vocabulary
- phrasal verb
- modal verbs-->shall/may/might/can/could/should/would/will
- sentence structure --> subject +verb + object + adjunct (relative clause - who that)
- present participle/ past participle ---> an interesting book, I'm interested in something
Best Wishes
