    My English teacher has very high standards and expects the class to write a high standard answer of 1 page in 15 minutes which I find to be really difficult because it takes me quite a while to think of something to write.

    How do I improve my writing skill and write a quality answer in the short length of time given to me? Should I just practice until I develop the skill or what? Also any other tips or advise would be welcome, thanks :)

    practice?yes definitely , my teacher was the same , they are just being realistic as you run out of time so quickly in the exam.I used to be stuck for half a page of writing without even being timed.My teacher was great and made us write down anything and read out are answers, i hated it at the time :P but i really started to improve.Force yourself to write down absolutely anything you can think of /even if you don't think its good , gradually more should come to your head and the more you know the quicker you will be able to do that 1 page

    Yeah, I'd need some too. My teacher expects a page in 10 minutes.
