It is said that the key factor to be successful in studying is
learn
Suggestion
learned
learnt
 by heart facts. I completely disagree with
this
 point of view.
Education
 is one of the most important issues in every country as there are many benefits gaining from it.
First
 of all,
education
 gives people knowledge and skills in any specific fields that they studied. To get the best results in
education
, people should do more than they think, not only memorising. In my opinion, understanding is the most important key to success.
For example
, when I study chemistry for my advanced test, reading a textbook and memorising everything there is not enough. If I just do
this
, I will could not do anything in the test. I have to understand
this
 information, but not only understand, it's still not enough. I have to understand
its
the thing named or in question
it
 very, very deeply until it likely becomes a part of my body. Only
then
, I feel that I succeeded in my studies. Memorising will not help us if we don't understand anything. If we just memorise these facts, we might success only in the test of remembering things.
This
 is something like a robot, you remember
this
, people ask you about
this
, you might answer it, but if they expanded the limitation of the questions, you couldn't. There are many other ways we can do to succeed in
education
. Practising is one more example. We learn theories in classes, but what we learn is just what the other experienced and recorded for the smaller generations.
Therefore
, practising will help you to understand what the textbook is trying to tell you. In conclusion, to be successful in
education
, memorising is not an important way for everyone.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
